Title: [VX Tutorial] On-Screen Monster Encounters, Battle When Monster Touches You
Post by: D&P3 on February 05, 2012, 09:42:48 PM
Introduction

Something that has really annoyed me about RPG's is the random battles, quite often I find that they happen far too frequently.

So this is a Tutorial for creating monsters on the map, that are used to activate battle encounters.

Features


It includes a proper escape feature (the monsters become see-through for a few seconds and you can walk through them).

A disappearing act, when you win, the monsters will disappear for around 17 seconds (can be decreased or extended), and they won't abruptly return, they will glow for a moment, then return to normal before trying to eat you again.

It includes an easy to setup tutorial for beginners AND a way for the more advanced users to set up a random battle encounter.

Talk to the red-haired guy in the game and then check the event files if you're still not sure what to do.


Good luck to you.

Really cool system indeed! This just shows how much you can do with eventing aswell! Scripts are awesome, and I'm using one for this kind of system(well It's similar atleast, but yours would be insane in a more action rpg type of game imo). What I'm trying to say is that you can do tons of things without actually using a script, and when people like you show it off for the rest of the world, atleast I'm one that is cheering!  ^-^
