What's up, RMers?

Well, here I go again.  But a bit different this time...

Yep, this is a battler being created by multiple image layers... essentially a paperdoll system for battlers.  However, this is not exactly new.  I already wrote one:  Brenda's Visual Battlers.

However, it is going through a rewrite, one where it uses techniques and has methods mirroring the content from Ah-sung's Paperdoll.  I already have the basics worked out.  But some things I have need to integrate:

• UserIDs in the EQUIP entries for custom graphics per actor
  
• 'T' flag for two-handed weapon use (MultiSlots compatibility)
  
• Possible Enemy Battler equipment (a variation of 'event' paperdolll options)
  
• Testing of changed equipment in-battle to refresh the battlers
  
• Testing of changing facing direction to refresh the battlers
  
• Testing of changing battlers (odd, yes).
  
• Facing direction flags for the ORDER_STYLE array
  

Otherwise, it has much already functional:

• Usage of the ORDER_STYLE array to dictate the order of graphics rendered, including the body
  
• Usage of the EQUIP and SUBSTITUTE entries for graphic acquisition
  

The fun part will be determining how to get a changed 'facing direction' system working. This may not seem necessary, but there are some systems where the battler changes facing direction.  Not only from an animation system standpoint, but a battler rotation standpoint.  Consider the 'Golden Sun' camera rotation system as one example.
