🏔️ ED5 Skyrim Skill Leveling System
Version 1.0 | by ChigooX/ED5
Transform your RPG Maker game with a comprehensive Skyrim-style skill progression system where individual skills drive character development. Level up skills through actual gameplay, gain bonuses based on equipment usage, and watch your character grow organically!
✨ Key Features
🎯 True Skill-Based Progression
- 18 Default Skills across 5 categories (Combat, Magic, Stealth, Crafting, General)
- Level skills by using them - No manual allocation needed
- 26 Different Condition Types for earning experience
- Overall level calculated from skills - Just like Skyrim!
- Per-skill custom exp curves (Linear, Quadratic, Skyrim-style, or Custom)
⚔️ Skyrim-Accurate Conditional Bonuses
- Equipment-based bonuses - Heavy Armor skill only boosts defense when wearing heavy armor
- Per-bonus control - Mix conditional and permanent bonuses in the same skill

🔧 Three Leveling Modes
Choose how skills interact with actor levels via a simple dropdown:
- Mode 1: Skills Only (Default) - Skills independent from actor level
- Mode 2: Skills Drive Actor Level - Actor level automatically syncs to overall skill level
- Mode 3: Skills Grant Actor Exp - Skill level-ups give actor experience (hybrid system)
