Make an actor learn a skill type through an event

[MasterMoes 19]

For some reason, there is no option to make an actor learn a new skill type through events. It's either through weapons, armors, states or by pre-setting the skill type into the character or class. Is there a script call that permanently adds a skill type to an actor?

Hmmm...I'm not sure. I've never actually looked into this myself.

The best solution I can think of (cause the RGSS code doesn't point to a method of adding skill types) is to have a state where the skill type is added and then you would just inflict the actor with that state. then remove the state.

Make sure that the text for the state is empty and the icon is blank, then it would not be seen to the player.

That doesn't work. As soon as the state is removed the skill type is lost.

A bit of searching and I found Shaz's Dynamic Features script.

You can add skill types with a script call.

add_feature(class, id, feature_code, data_id[, value])

 

add_feature(:actor, 1, :stype_add, 1)

Adds skill type 1 to actor 1

Thank you roninator, I don't know how I missed this. I'll see if it works out!

 

UPDATE: It works great. Thank you!
