RPG Maker VX Ace - Party Member Select Script

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
#* Party Member Select Script
#
# A script for RPG Maker VX Ace projects
#
# script by: NinjaChicle
#
# This script lets you select an actor from your party and save their ID
# in a variable. Also saves the name of the actor in a different
# variable too if you want to.
#
# To use it, just put SceneManager.call(Scene_ActorSelect) in a script call and then
# add the wait command for one frame, and you will be able to select an actor and then use the ID for
# whatever you want.
#

  ACTOR_NAME = 2   #this variable will save the name of the selected actor.
                   #set ACTOR_NAME to 0 if you don't need it.
  SELECT_TEXT = "Choose who \nshould be \nselected." #the \n moves the text after it one line down.
