neither, the first would error because game party would be using woodcutting class as a super, not what you want. the second would error because your using a child class as the adult class for the same class.

just a simple "class Game_Party" is all you need. and for the wood cutting level, you just need to make an attr_accessor for woodcutting level variable created in the "def initialize".

that way you can check or change the value of the variable by using $game_party.woodcutting_level.

I don't know why I did'nt think to that.

Code:

class Game_Party
def initialize
attr_accessor :woodcutting_lvl
lumbering = woodcutting_lvl
$game_party.lumbering
end
end

I get "undefine method attr_accessor for Game_Party#(some number and letters)" when I press on New game.

the attr_accessor is defined in the class its self not the def.

Code:


class Game_Party
  def initialize
    attr_accessor :woodcutting_lvl # <-----
    lumbering = woodcutting_lvl
    $game_party.lumbering
  end
end


instead you need to do it here, or any place in the class so long as its not located inside any def.

Code:


class Game_Party
  attr_accessor :woodcutting_lvl # <-----

  def initialize
    lumbering = woodcutting_lvl
    $game_party.lumbering
  end
end


Also you need to create a class variable not an instance. (defined by a @ symbol.)

Code:


class Game_Party
  attr_accessor :woodcutting_lvl

  def initialize
    lumbering = woodcutting_lvl # <-----
    $game_party.lumbering
  end
end


like this.

Code:


class Game_Party
  attr_accessor :woodcutting_lvl

  def initialize
    @lumbering = woodcutting_lvl # <-----
    $game_party.lumbering
  end
end


I have a lot to learn.
But I get undefine method lumbering for game_party class. But, it's not a method. it's a variable. Do I need to define it like:

Code:

def lumbering
@lumbering = woodcutting_lvl
end

no you need to create the variable.

Code:


class Game_Party
  attr_accessor :woodlvl
 
  alias :wood_init :initialize
  def initialize
    wood_init
    @woodlvl = 0
  end
end


something like that.

I'll read about alias cause I didn't read something about that. If I understand the little part of code, it's this?

alias :wood_init :initialize
def initialize
wood_init
@woodlvl = 0
end
end

The yellow call the initialition method and the green, the define.


But I have a tutorial about alias.

yea the alias is like a def that is called so say initialize, then like intercepted. So say something like this, you look for when initialize is called and then you tell it to use this method first then when you use the alias (your yellow word) it will call the original initialize.

make sense?

Nice, I start to be good! I understand something that I did'nt read about.

I'll need to do like that, no?

Code:


class Game_Party
  attr_accessor :woodcutting_lvl
 
  alias :woodcutting_init :initialize
  def initialize
    woodcutting_init
    @lumbering = 0
    @lumbering = woodcutting_lvl
  end
end

But I don't understand why you extend the woodcutting with "_init". That call the original woodcutting class when I define thw woodcutting_lvl variable. But why "_init"?
