Copy Actors
Version 1.00
SumRndmDde

This is a Plugin that allows you to copy Actors to have multiple instances
of the same Actor in your game.

==========================================================================
How to Make Copy Actors
==========================================================================

In order to create and add a Copy Actor to your party, use the following
Plugin Command:

CopyActor x

This will create a Copy Actor based off of Actor ID x.
For example:

CopyActor 1

This will create a copy of Actor ID 1 and add it to the party.

==========================================================================
Referencing Copy Actors through Variables
==========================================================================

When you create a Copy Actor through a Plugin Command, you can store the
Copy Actor’s ID into a variable by adding a second Parameter:

CopyActor x y

Set y to the ID of the Variable you wish to store the Copy Actor ID’s in.

==========================================================================
Copy Actors Mode
==========================================================================

When Copy Actors Mode is turned on, using the “Change Party Member” event
will add copies of the Actors instead of actual originals.

You can customize whether this is on or off at the beginning of the game
in the Parameters of this plugin.

You can also use the Plugin Commands:

CopyActorMode ON
CopyActorMode OFF

to turn Copy Actors Mode on or off.

==========================================================================
New Game_Actor Functions
==========================================================================

In order to compensate for the new Copy Actors, there are two new functions
that can be used on Actor objects (instances of Game_Actor class).

actor.copyId()

Returns the ID of the copy. ID 0 is the original, and every number after
that is the number refers to the amount of Copy Actors that existed
at the Copy Actor’s creation plus one.

For example, the first Copy Actor has Copy ID 1, the second has Copy ID 2,
the third has Copy ID 3, etc…

actor.originalId()

The ID of the Actor the Copy Actor was created from.
