Submission: Class/Profession System, by Prexus Options

[Prexus]

Made because of an idea by Black Joker;
helped a-LOT- in making it customizable thanks to Fuso and Astro_Mech
I attempted to make it as comprehensible as possible via my comments...

Anyhow what it does is uses the Classes database and sets aside certain classes
as "Classes" and others as "Professions". A profession is a sort of sub-class to the class.. For example, in the demo, a Knight (class)'s professions are Swords, Lances, Axes, and Shields.

Professions and Classes level completely independently of each other and the hero. The EXP given in battle by a monster is given to the hero as normal but a hero's level governs stat increases and not skill gains. Then, EXP equal to 3/4s the EXP given to the Actor goes to the Class Exp, and 1/2 goes to Profession EXP.

The actor can equip weapons/armor that are in the Class weapon/armor sets as well as the Profession weapon/armor set. So a knight might inherently be able to equip daggers, but if professing in Swords could also equip swords.

Uhm.. not sure what else there is to know about it.. the Class Changing windows and stuff aren't very aesthetic. They are just placeholders for the work you do.

There is an option in the menu for Class Skills. I made this so that classes such
as Artisan (in the demo) could use Axe Man Deke's recipe/combination system
Just take the option out of the menu if you don't want it.

[Guardian Drayal]

I don't have a demo to post, but I did manage to decipher this script with some assistance.

The script above is exactly right except for one small area, which I'll show you how to change. First, find this part of the script...

    when 3 # Actor ID
      @profession_id = 5 # Starting Profession ID
    when 4
      @profession_id = 9
    when 5
      @profession_id = 13
    when 6
      @profession_id = 17
    end

...and change it to this:

    when 1 # Actor ID
      @profession_id = 5 # Starting Profession ID
    when 2
      @profession_id = 9
    when 3
      @profession_id = 13
    when 4
      @profession_id = 17
    end

Bear in mind that you have to organize your classes in a specific way for this script to work properly. The first four classes in your database's Class tab are the main classes. Make sure that none of the characters in the Hero tab start with anything as their class except for one of these four classes. Probably best to make them broad...something like Warrior, Magic User, Rogue and Specialist.

Now, for the four sub-classes, or professions, for Warrior, you would place those as the next four classes on the Class tab. Maybe something like Knight, Crusader, Magus Knight, Paladin. The next four blocks below these should be the four professions for Magic User, and so on. There are instructions in the script on how to change these numbers if you so desire, so I won't rehash that.

To open the script to change classes, put the following into a Call Script event:

$scene = Scene_ClassSelect.new(0)

The 0 in parentheses is the id for the first member of the party, so if you wanted the third person in your party to change his/her class, you would apply that line, but instead put 2 in the parentheses.

Also, a part of this script needs to be placed in a new script between this one and main. I'll post that part of the script here for the sake of simplicity. I named it Gradient_Bar on my script list and didn't have a problem, so I assume you can name it whatever you want:

That's about all I can think of to assist with this script. You should refer to the original post and script above, though, when using it. I don't know the full capabilities of it...I simply was able, with some assistance, to learn how to implement and use it. Hope this helps someone.
