Planned Future Versions
Extend MP notation to suit Classes as well as Actors to allow this script to be useful for games which use a system in which Actors can change their classes.
Description
Allows different actors to be assigned their own terminology for their MP pool, such as AP or SP - whatever fits the character's class/role.
Features
- A way to change specific actor's MP terminology
- Optional: Each terminology can also feature its own color scheme for the MP gauge.
- NEW Allow items to be created that only restore a specific kind of MP.
- Fixed to work with Woratana's Neo Gauge and Modern Algebra's Full Status Custom Menu System scripts.
Screenshots
Instructions
The script contains instructions on where to put it, and how to use it.
Script
See Attachments for a .txt file containing the script - I'm not sure how long too long actually is to put it in code tags.
Credit
For the parts from their scripts that I had to work around for this script to work with them:
Thanks
- vilinious_viper - for the initial request and letting me know it needed a fix
for Woratana's Neo Gauge script
Support
Feel free to send me a PM on rmrk.net for any particular issues (LoganForrests)
Known Compatibility Issues
None specifically known.
Scripts that alter the appearance of the MP gauges will probably require this script to be updated with a work around/fix. If there are any scripts in which there is a problem, please let me know and provide me with the name of the offending script so I can see about making it work.
Demo
Not really necessary. Examples are present in the script itself.
Author's Notes
I'm fairly sure that I've seen a script that allowed for different MP terms (that also did many other things) but I can't for the life of me remember where. It might not even be true. This one has it as a standalone, though, and offers the color settings which I don't recall that one doing. If anyone does know of one, let me know. It's bugging me.
It's likely I'll rewrite the code for this at some point to make it easier to use and make it a little clearer to read the code. I tend to write to make things work before I try to clean up the code.
Any suggestions on better ways to write the script will be taken into consideration. I'm still learning new things and always enjoy to learn more.
