Could you change a large amount of PCs in the WoR? - Jeff - 01-15-2017

If you wanted to replace, say, 7 out of 14 members with new ones, but still keep the WoB the same... could you? I'm bouncing around an idea of changing the WoR storyline and don't want to mess with the beginning too much. Thanks!

Yes you can, as long as the characters disappearing don't come back in the WOR. Limit is 14 characters (with 2 guests) but you can have more total characters than this. There are dummies actor data for new ones.

Nice! With the new characters, can I give them unique skills as well, or would I have to reuse things like Dance/Sketch?

You would need to reuse dummy ones or replace them. You could expand commands also but this is another story.

Could you give me a short idea of how to replace the dummies? I'm using FF3usME if that helps.

The only dummy one is Summon I think. You assign it with the Actor data editor but more important you'd need to code the command first. What you want your command to do is up to you but you might need to code a menu if needed, etc. All of this is taken care in bank $C2.

Cool! Can I also do that within usME? And in regards to other actors, there's a huge amount of empty spaces right after Biggs and Wedge- I'd like to start filling these out with people, but will that actually let me code them in?

No the command ASM coding should be done with an assembler. As for character assignation, it is done by event. There's a bunch of examples in the event dump. A event command document will laso be handy since you need to assign also palettes and graphics.

Awesome! So (last question I swear) I can use those spaces and assign them later with the assembler?
