NOW my question is if there's any plugin, or any way to collapse two different kind of skills into a single one.
To explain this further, I'm making an rpg with MV that's all about your entire party being different kind of mages, based on Final Fantasy mages.
Such as the white mage being a healer, black mage a damage dealer, and red mage is a weaker combination of white and black.
There the problem arises. I've made skills to be tagged as either black or white magic, but there are also weaponskills, and native "abilities". And when I play as the Red Mage class which just so happen to have access to all of the above, there's a bit of a menu hell.

I still want Weapon Skills and Abilities to be a different battle command. But I'm trying to find a way to collapse White and Black magic into a Red Magic command.
Something like the "Skill Extender" Plugin from SmRndmDde:

Btw I also want to integrate this plugin*
But for skill types.

Now, while writing this post I managed to run Bobstah's Battle Commands Customization Plugin. But this isn't exactly what I want.

You see BOB_BattleCommandList will just order every white and black magic inside a single battle command. But what I want is another window to popup where we choose either Black magic or White magic, under Red magic's command.
Here I made a basic concept.

Is there already a plugin that could help me? Maybe a way to implement the ones already shown? or another solution perhaps.
