Let's see if I can explain this right.
First off, this is 100% about aesthetics.
Second, I apologize if this can be done without any scripting and is in the wrong forum.
Situation:
I've got a character that summons a monster to take their place through a common event that simply removes the summoner and adds the monster until releasing it or battle ends.
The problem:
If i have any actors in the party below the summoner, the monster gets summoned to the last position in the formation, causing the other actors to shift their positions. Instead of into whatever position the summoner was in, which is what I want. Not really an issue until the monster disappears and the summoner returns.
I've found a few scripts like Yanfy's http://yanflychannel.wordpress.com/rmvxa/core-scripts/party-system/ or Tsukihime's http://xtsukihime.wordpress.com/2013/01/29/free-formation/.
I'm trying my best to avoid locking the formation in any way, which takes away some of the players control.
starting positions.
positions after monster summoned.
positions after monster leaves.
The request:
<span style="color: #b22222">Is there anyway I can store the summoner's position in the formation and use it to set the monster's position when summoned and vice versa?
this will prevent players from having to reorder the formation after every battle they summon in.
