Hello there good people,

Would you mind sheding some light of knowledge onto this poor, forsaken soul?

Seriously now. In my envisioned game, the main character should be a able to control other NPCs. I figured for a start to combine interacting with the NPCs  and then in GlobalScript to get

Code: ags

function cREnemy.Interact
{
cREnemy.SetAsPlayer();
}

Which works. The only quirk is that... the main character disappears. Seriously. Sure, the new "player" works fine and moves freely, but the main character vanishes.
I've been searching other forum posts and I think I saw somewhere something on the lines of "there can't be two main characters" (it was for a different question though, at least if my brain is still working). If that's true, is there a way for me to preserve my main character as a static... "object" or something like that (because I'd still like the main character to face the the NPC after it nicked his role as a main character). If there's a way for this to be pulled off, I'm open for all suggestions. This was just a beginning thought to see if this idea can work at all.

I apologise if I misspelled something or I phrased something wrong or something doesn't make sense, this is what happens when my sleep is non-existent (and when the medications stop working )

Thanks a whole bunch up front.
