Airship Falcon: Expanded

Despite the fact its still giving me hell in execution, from what I do understand, yes you can reuse one NPC multiple times, but not multiple times on the same screen. Static soldiers in a town, could use two npc and have 2 guard visually standing on each side of town. But you still only have two guards at a time. (Like the opening narsh battles, 5 npc's reused at different steps on the map to seem more like 10, but you dont actually interact with them, from creation to hide they dont have dialog, just a message diplayed with the spawn event.)

That would be a trick for reducing the count but I still find/have no theory on creaating a new npc from nothing. Thought maybe just create the same npc template a few times but its still one npc and far as I can tell can only be on the screen once at a time.

Is it possible to load an npc from anothr map using an event maybe?

Also, you can spawn a PC, and assign a pallette, but you cant change the grapic/sprite that Ive seen, which still leaves you with a PC. Hell, if thats the case, why couldn't I spawn Biggs/Wedge in a town,assign a single dialog and call "IT" a guard? Without having an actual npc? Or the same thing with creating a couple "mog" by creating the PC in the moogle cave in the WoB?

Still dont know how to poke dialog on demand(only when interacted) but as far as standing there or drinking why wouldnt that work?
