[CGMZ] Recruitment Board for RPG Maker MZ

Hi all, introducing [CGMZ] Recruitment Board!

Recruitment Board Scene

This plugin adds a recruitment board, which is a shop-like interface for recruiting actors. The player will be able to see a brief overview in a list format of each actor including costs, basic stats, etc. Upon selecting the actor, they will then see the full actor information window which includes full stats, a full list of skills, and a full list of costs (set up via plugin parameter what is shown here and in what order).

Individual Actor Scene

If you do not want to use the full scene, you can also call the full actor information window directly to recruit only one actor. It may look something like this:

The actors that appear in the recruitment board can be controlled by using the Change Discovered and Change Availability plugin commands. These two properties determine who is in the scene when recruitment time occurs.

Customizable

You can completely customize the scenes including the order information is displayed. Below is a quick image of the recruitment board select window with the information displayed in a different order:

In addition to customizing the look of the scene, you can also determine which actors appear in which recruitment board. This could help you make it so certain actors are only recruitable in certain locations of your game, or only after certain events occur.

Integrations

Please be aware that you can access this as well as all of my other Alpha plugins for $5 on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/CasperGamingRPGM

This is posted to Itch.io since some people only use Itch and are not aware my Patreon and all of my beta/alpha plugins exist, or want to have everything in one convenient location (itch.io), or do not want to do a monthly subscription.

Casper Gaming's Beta/Alpha plugins are treated as an "early access" and will eventually be free for everyone once they are fully released, though this process can take months/years. By purchasing in beta/alpha, you are able to provide early feedback/suggestions which are more likely to make it into the final fully released plugin.
