Dargor's Large Party script and shop menu

[Simon Greedwell]

Greetings and salutations.

I decided to use Dargor's Large Party Script that allows more than 4 party members and I noticed that in the shop menu only the first 4 characters show up. I'm using the default shop script if you are wondering.

There's Dargor's script if needed:

A little bit of exercise...

#==============================================================================
# ** Large Party Scene Shop & Window Expansion
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    by DerVVulfman
#    version 1.0
#    08-28-2013
#    RGSS / RPGMaker XP
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
#    Requested by:  Simon Greedwell
#
#    Just a quick rewrite of the Shop Status window and Scene_Shop script to
#    allow Dargor's Large Party system work.  It should also work with other
#    similar large party systems for RPGMaker XP, but untried.  However, the
#    highlighting feature works even without the use of a large party system.
#
#    When in the Shop Buy window, hitting the L & R member cycling keys ( or
#    the Q & W on the keyboard ), you exit the Buy window & enter the status
#    window.  During this time,  all the members within the  window  will be
#    highlighted.  Use Up/Down keys to scroll through them.  ESC returns you
#    to the Buy window.

A thousand thanks friend. I already tested and works perfectly.
