Just post down below.


None so far, but probably will not work with anything that utilises Window_Help.

Nice Script, I used an old one by Dragor I think it is? That was incompatible with quite a bit of things since it was never updated, but just throwing out compatibility notice:

Compatible with Modern Algebra's Advanced Text System and the Yanfly/YED etc overhauls. Long as they're above it.

Great idea cozzie! Good work.

:O
Nice stuff! Looks great!

Hello first of all, nice to meet you, I am new around here and it's a pleasure to be in such a nice forum.

Second, sorry for bringing back this thread from the deadland, but I have a little problem with this script and was hoping for a little help.

I am using Modern Algebra's "Learn Skills By Use" script and Zeriab's "Dialog System" script to make skills that "evolve" when they're used a number of times.

The problem is a little glitch that comes when the dialog box from the "Dialog system" script appears in the screen telling that you have learned the new skill:

(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi54.tinypic.com%2F2i20ltl.png&hash=8b4e45bdb7cc7b00ee79f276fcb2dec7e9df1f40)
Here it shoul say: "Oscar has learned Double attack" but the text is "cut"

I am using various scripts in my project, but when I remove the "Scrolling Window_Help" script, the glitch disappears, so my guess is that the problem is whitin this script, but I am no expert in this matter, so excuse me if I am mistaken.

I also tried to put the scripts in different order but the result is the same.

Here are the other scripts if you need to check them:

#==============================================================================
#    Learn Skills By Use
#    Version: 2.0b
#    Author: modern algebra (rmrk.net)
#    Date: October 29, 2010
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  NB: If you wish to use the learn immediately option of the script, then
#   Zeriab's Dialog System is required and he should be credited. You can find
#   it here: http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,24828.0.html
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Description:
#
#    This script allows you to have actors learn skills by using other skills.
#   For instance, you could set it so that an actor will learn Fire II only
#   after he has used Fire 50 times. You can also set it so that there can be
#   multiple paths to learning a skill and multiple skill requirements. For
#   instance, that same actor could also learn Fire II if he has used Flame
#   60 times and Flame II 25 times. However, you can also set class
#   prohibitions and level requirements, so if you never want a Paladin to
#   learn Fire II no matter how many times he uses its root skills, then it is
#   easy to set that up, and if you don't want Fire II to be learned by any
#   actor until they are at least level 7, then that can be setup too. You may
#   also set it up so that it is like an upgrade - Fire becomes obsolete once
#   Fire II is learned, and so you can simply forget Fire once you have Fire II
#   It also has two options of ways to show the number of times you've used a
#   skill.
#
#    Also, you can set it so that the actor either learns the new skill
#   immediately upon meeting use requirements, or at his/her next level.
#
#    Further, this doesn't interfere with the regular skill learning system, so
#   if you set it that a mage will learn Fire II at level 6 in the Class Tab
#   of the database, than the mage will learn Fire II at level 6 no matter if
#   she has met the use requirements of its root skills, and no matter what
#   the class prohibitions or level requirements are.
#
#    There are also a number of options you can set regarding how to show the
#   number of uses in the help window, and you can do it by either pressing a
#   button or it will show up at the same time as the description. There is
#   also a new set of mastery options.
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Instructions:
#
#    Place this script above Main and below Materials in the Editor. It should
#   also be below any custom levelup scripts you may have. If set to learn
#   immediately, then Zeriab's Dialog System is required above this script:
#       http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,24828.0.html
#
#    To set up a skill to be learned through use, you must use this code in a
#   notes box:
#
#      \ROOT_SKILL[skill_id, number_of_uses, <supplement_skills>, forget]
#        skill_id : The ID of the root skill that leads to this skill.
#        number_of_uses : An integer - the number of times the root skill has
#          be used before it teaches this skill.
#        <supplement_skills> : a list of skill IDs that also have to have their
#          root requirements fulfilled before the skill will be learned. It is
#          of the format: <x, y, z> where x, y, and z are the IDs of the other
#          skills that must have usage requirements met. You can have as many
#          as you like. Note, however, that you must set up one of these
#          requirements notes for each of the other skills as well, and you
#          must cross-reference the skills in this path. Defaults to <>,
#          meaning that the only usage requirements needed to be filled is this
#          one
#        forget : If this is set to 1, then the root skills will be forgotten
#          once this skill is learned. If left blank or set to any other digit,
#          than the root skills will be retained.
#
#  EXAMPLE A:
#
#    This code in the notebox of a skill:
#
#      \ROOT_SKILL[9, 100]
#
#    There is only one path to learning this skill:
#      (i) Use the skill with ID 9 at least 100 times.
#
#    No skill is forgotten
#
#  EXAMPLE B:
#
#    These codes in the notebox of a skill:
#
#      \ROOT_SKILL[1, 20, 1]
#      \ROOT_SKILL[4, 15, <5>]
#      \ROOT_SKILL[5, 8, <4>]
#
#    With these codes, there are two paths to learning this skill.
#      (i)  Use the skill with ID 1 at least 20 times.
#      (ii) Use the skill with ID 4 at least 15 times and use the skill with
#         ID 5 at least 8 times.
#
#    No matter which path is taken to the skill, the skill with ID 1 will be
#   forgotten as soon as the new skill is learned.
#
#  EXAMPLE C:
#
#    The following codes in the notebox of a skill:
#
#      \ROOT_SKILL[6, 100]
#      \ROOT_SKILL[7, 100]
#      \ROOT_SKILL[6, 20, <7, 8>]
#      \ROOT_SKILL[7, 25, <6, 8>]
#      \ROOT_SKILL[8, 15, <6, 7>]
#
#    With these codes, there are three paths to learning this skill.
#      (i)   Use the skill with ID 6 at least 100 times
#      (ii)  Use the skill with ID 7 at least 100 times
#      (iii) Use the skill with ID 6 at least 20 times, the skill with ID 7 at
#          least 25 times, and the skill with ID 8 at least 15 times.
#
#    No matter which path is taken, no skills will be forgotten.
#
#    To prohibit a class from learning a skill through usage requirements,
#   put this code in a notebox of a skill:
#
#      \PROHIBIT_CLASS[class_id]
#        class_id : ID of class not allowed to learn this skill through use
#
#    To set a minimum level for learning a skill through usage requirements,
#   put this code in the notebox of a skill:
#
#      \MIN_LEVEL[x]
#        x : an integer that is the minimum level. An actor cannot learn
#          the skill until his level is at least equal to x.
# 
#  Next, you may want to setup if and how the use count is displayed. To, set the text that you
#  want to signify the count under LSU_VOCAB_USECOUNT at line 159, and you can
#  set the color of the text at line 165 - LSU_COUNT_FONTCOLOR. If this is an
#  integer, it takes the color from the windowskin palette. You could also set
#  it as an array of the form: [red, green, blue, alpha].
#   Alternatively, you could set it up to only show the skill count if the
#  player presses a specified button. You would not get to choose the color in
#  that case, but would get to specify alignment.
#
#   Lastly, there is now an option to show "Mastery". You can specify a number
#  of uses to meet this threshold. When showing use count, it will show up as
#  # of uses / mastery threshold, and once reached, it will be replaced by any
#  text you choose. Those options are between lines 162 and 168. To set the
#  threshold for a skill individually, use the following code:
#      \MASTER[x]
#        x : the number of uses to reach mastery.

I hope that this can be fixed.
Thanks in advance for your help  :)

Thanks and hopefully fixed. In hindsight, I should have seen this problem coming earlier.

Hello again, thanks for your quick reply.

I have just replaced the script, but the glitch is still there.

I noticed the script still says: "Version: 1.1" is this the fixed version? or did you forgot to replace the old one?  :)

Ugh my apologies. I forgot to replace the old script.

I just tested it, and it works like a charm, thank you very much for your help  :D
