paper doll (noun)

Script

The system is a multi-script system.  Better the demos to handle them.



Instructions

Plenty, and all in the first page of the system.



Compatibility

There are sections overwritten, mainly within Sprite_Character's update method. The method re-worked to mimic the RMXP SDK © 2007+


Author's Notes

I tend to give my demos names of ladies, co-workers, fellow members or otherwise. This time, I chose to name it after one of the actress's from the Korean Horror movie "The Host" © 2006, Ko Ah-sung. She was also in the 2013 feature, Snowpiercer with Chris Evans and Sir John Hurt... but I never saw it.


Credits and Thanks

Basically, thanks to Icogil  who created a topic for designing a paperdoll system that allowed for variable-sized resources.  It spurred me forward.



Terms and Conditions

Free to use, even in commercial projects.  Just note that I need some form of due credit... even a mere mention in some end titles.
