Would it be possible to add a "trust command" that tells trusts to apply their normal engagement buffs? It's not the biggest issue in the world, but it would be nice to go into battles that open with magic with Shell or not having 1/6th of my healer's MP go to Protectra/Shellra as the opener is going off.
It doesn't need to be complicated and could be as easy as tricking the trusts into thinking that they're in combat when they aren't.
