I know there may be some Party Swapping plugins out there for RPG Maker MV, but I wanted something that was really easy and stripped down to use. So I looked around for a bit, but didn’t find anything that really worked for my needs. Then while I was surfing the web, I came across a bit of code that really helped me out. So with that out the way, let’s get this tutorial going!
This code will help swap party members 1 and 2. For scripting purposes, the party members IDs start from 0.
Now go to the last page in the Event Editor and click the Script button (Left Picture). A window will show up and you’ll see an empty box (Right Picture) where you can type in code. For this one, you’ll type this: $gameParty.swapOrder(0, 1);. Just switch the last number to either 2 or 3 for the other party members.
NOTE: The first choice slot is empty because you’re not swapping the first party member with the same member.
Here’s the result!
If you want to do a switch for ALL Members in the party, you would need to make a change to the Show Choice event. See the pictures below for how to do that. It’s just a simple Choice menu nested inside a Choice menu.
