Calling the NameInput for a Variable-Stored Actor(SOLVED!), Should be simple...I hope Options

[DUFUTA]

I've been studying the Interpreter script and looking for a way to call the Name_Input Scene to change the name of an actor whose ID has been stored in $game_variable[4]. After studying, I tried a few different ways, like:

CODE

$scene = Scene_Name.new($game_variables[4], 8)

The thought process there was to pass into the scene, the actor's id (game_variable[4]) and the max length for the name(8).

I know these are the only two parameters which should be needed for the scene.

Anyway, it seems too simple to be racking my brain this hard over. So a quick bit of help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Heisenman. Works perfectly.

I think it could have been done with conditionals, but if there's a high limit on the amount of actors you can create, then you're looking at a huge branch, when this, mere 4 lines of code does the trick.

I've grown to understand that even though there's often a 'way' to do things with events, it's not always the most efficient.

Thanks for the help. By the way, I like and use the fogs you created.
