Stop import characters

[ian363]

Is there a way to remove the import characters on custom dungeons. My games is designed for new characters, powerful ones would make it too easy. Thanks Ian.

yeah mate there is. This is one way.

Code: Select all

function remove1()
for i = 1,4 do
local c = party.party:getChampion(i)
local class = c:getClass()
if class == “rogue” then
party.party:getChampion(i):setEnabled(false)
end
end

Second way is to make champ(s) start as you want them to be eg: (this is all 4 champs mate) I hope this helps you bro:) If not call us.

Code: Select all

local c = party.party:getChampion(1)
--Champ 1
c:setName('Tifa Lockhart')
c:setClass('fighter')
c:setRace('ratling')
c:setSex('female') 

--c:insertItem(1,spawn("dagger").item)
c:insertItem(3,spawn("peasant_cap").item)
c:insertItem(4,spawn("peasant_tunic").item)
c:insertItem(5,spawn("peasant_breeches").item)
c:insertItem(6,spawn("sandals").item)
 
c:gainExp(10)
c:setPortrait('assets/textures/portraits/ratling_female_03.tga')
--c:trainSkill('light_weapons',1)

c:setBaseStat('strength',16) --**


local c = party.party:getChampion(2)
--Champ 2
c:setName('Fiddler Thain')
c:setClass('rogue')
c:setRace('ratling')
c:setSex('male')

c:insertItem(3,spawn("peasant_cap").item)
c:insertItem(4,spawn("peasant_tunic").item)
c:insertItem(5,spawn("peasant_breeches").item)
c:insertItem(6,spawn("sandals").item)

c:gainExp(10)
c:setPortrait('assets/textures/portraits/ratling_male_04.tga')
c:trainSkill('missile_weapons',1)
c:trainSkill('throwing',1)

c:setBaseStat('strength',12)


local c = party.party:getChampion(3)
--Champ 3
c:setName('Thourun Wisthoff')
c:setClass('wizard')
c:setRace('ratling')
c:setSex('male')

c:insertItem(3,spawn("peasant_cap").item)
c:insertItem(4,spawn("peasant_tunic").item)
c:insertItem(5,spawn("peasant_breeches").item)
c:insertItem(6,spawn("sandals").item)

c:gainExp(10)
c:setPortrait('assets/textures/portraits/ratling_male_06.tga')
c:trainSkill('fire_magic',1)
c:trainSkill('earth_magic',1)
c:trainSkill('firearms',-1)
c:setSkillPoints(-1) 
c:setBaseStat('strength',8)


local c = party.party:getChampion(4)
--Champ 4
c:setName('Zala Lockhart')
c:setClass('alchemist')
c:setRace('ratling')
c:setSex('female')

c:insertItem(3,spawn("peasant_cap").item)
c:insertItem(4,spawn("peasant_tunic").item)
c:insertItem(5,spawn("peasant_breeches").item)
c:insertItem(6,spawn("sandals").item)

c:gainExp(10)
c:setPortrait('assets/textures/portraits/ratling_female_04.tga')
c:trainSkill('alchemy',1)
c:trainSkill('firearms',1)

c:setBaseStat('strength',8)

Thanks for your reply but I think your code is to alter characters after you enter game. I want to remove the option to import characters at the start screen when choosing a custom game. Thanks Ian

Just place it on the map/world ( I think it has to be 1 second delay, so connect it to a timer with 1 sec delay, and timer to itself to deactivate.

put hidden presure plate or so where ur party starts so the timer will run and put all champs level 1.

you can't remove the option, you can only modify the champions once the dungeon starts

OK thanks everyone.

OK thanks everyone.

You should probably [highly recommended] place an all caps warning ~or at least a polite note in the description, mentioning that you plan to wipe the default characters when the game starts; otherwise the player might spend significant time building a party, only to lose them when the adventure begins.

Good plan, but I'll just tell people the game is designed for new characters and leave it up to them. I don't want to annoy anyone by down grading their hard won team.
Thanks Ian

This is the correct answer. Give a recommendation, then let the player choose whether they will follow it.

What i did in my mod is...create all new classes,races and skills....that way noone can import charakters. If they try well that will end in a crash
