Title: [XP] SCARE SKILL Tutorial [XP]
Post by: djkdjl on October 04, 2007, 06:52:26 PM

This skill,,when cast by your hero(s),,will force a selected enemy to flee from battle.  You don't need any switches nor variables for this skill to work.  Here is how it's done.

First create a new STATE(condition) as follows:

Then,,create a Common Event as follows (it uses conditional branch [page 1] and force action [page 3] commands):

Here is a more detailed version of Conditional Branch and Force Action commands:

Finally,,create a new skill in the skills section as follows (I called it SCARE):

AND YOU ARE DONE!!  Enjoy.  Also on a personal note,,you can make enemies such as BOSSES immune to the FLEEING state. ([E] Fleeing under State Efficiency in Enemies Tab)  Also you can make some enemies more subdued to the state than others. [A] Fleeing would make them most likely to flee,,[E] Fleeing makes them virtually invulnerable.


Coming up....the WARP SKILL tutorial.

Pretty good tutorial. It is done in an interesting way. My one question is how/where does it work. In your tutorial,  you never call the common event that causes the enemies to act upon the state. I figured you might want to rectify that. Otherwise, it is a nice tutorial. Good job.

Sorry for this massive bump, but there is a slight problem...

The links are dead. As such, nobody can use the tutorial
