Reason for edit: Credit to the author!

lol, KGC, also this script isnt compatible by itself ya know... you need 4 others i think.

[fmjpr]

You shouldn't post anything without crediting the original creator. People look down on that. And if this is KGC, then it has been posted already and is probably in the KGC scripts library at the least.

[RidgeVortex]

I said this was not mine. I don't know who made it.
Anyway this one works on its own. You don't need any other scripts.

Actually i think this is a different one to KGC. Blank said you need 4 but on this one you need only one.

I will check who made it, but this was found in a really old game i made.

[RidgeVortex]

Thanks for finding the creator Woratana. =)

[Blank]

lol, I said I think there were 4 others. For example Also im pretty sure it wont work without KGC_InterfaceForWin32API script. Im not home to test ti right now.

[sargunster]

ok...
i copied the script, and put it above main, but it came up as one big line
could you post a demo so i can copy it from there?

[Blank]

copy it into a text file first then to the script database. I think that should work.

[sargunster]

ok ill try
EDIT: YAY!!!
and it works without that script you were talking about

[RidgeVortex]

Hehe! Im sure that this script is very useful, especially because you only need one script.

[Blank]

Guess your right. eh, sorry for the hassle. I cant just install any old program at my cousins house so I really didnt know. Anyways i guess its okay since Mr.A made a topic for all the scripts he translated until he compiled the KGC Library with TouchFuzzy and he didnt make a topic for this so yeah.

[jim42]

Works perfectly! Thank you very much!

[Cadaboo]

Anyone know how to make this work so it doesn't freeze your game whenever someone leaves your party?

[raeta1]

I need help when i copy and paste it's just one long line

[Kirbysuperstar]

I need help when i copy and paste it's just one long line

Perhaps try reading the posts above.

[fmjpr]

I need help when i copy and paste it's just one long line

There you go.

[ell]

Just copy into word then into rpgmaker then it works.

[jim42]

Anyone know how to make this work so it doesn't freeze your game whenever someone leaves your party?

I have just tried this in my own game, and I have no trouble whatever when I remove a party member. Maybe you have copied and pasted the script incorrectly?

[Blank]

No to add a member to the catepiller or remove them from it you must use remove or add character twice.

EX:

Effect Removes from Line:
Remove Actor 01

Effect Both removes and removes from party
Remove Actor 01
Remove Actor 01

Vice A Versa for adding, at least this is how the KGC Version works as far as I know or something of the sort.
