Airship

[Rune]

I'm going to need an airship later in my game... would anyne happen to have a script or other way of doing this?

Also... how do I change monstter groups in the map? i.e. When you go onto snow, you fight snow monsters... but on grass you fight different enemies.

Again... thanks in advance

I think for an airship, that can be done with events.

For the second one, I don't really know. XP Maybe you could just make the places bigger so that you have a snow map and a non-snow map?

EDIT (Didn't want to repost): Sorry I'm so useless T_T

An airship...like you want it to pass over all tiles, though inpassable without the airship?
Use this. You have to have an item eqipped, but I'm sure it could be editted so if the item is in the inventory then you can walk through walls. Note: It is called a ring, but it can be anything equippable.

# the accessory you wish to have this debug type property.
#
# Compatability

# Compatible with SDK.
# To make it compatible with non-SDK, just delete the SDK lines.

(i commented out the SDK lines, uncomment them if you use SDK)

And for the encounter difference, go on hbgames.org and search for Seph's Test Bed. There is an encounter control in there.

Could be shorter. =P And there's always CTRL...

shorter huh? I wouldn't know how
and besides, CTRL is only in debug

Remove this in the default script and it's not anymore.

$DEBUG and

EDIT: Ok, out of my head:

# Set DEBUG_ID to the accessory ID which will allow phasing.

DEBUG_ID = 24

class Game_Player < Game_Character
 
  alias passable_debug_extra_later? passble?
  def passable?(x, y, dir)
    res = passable_debug_extra_later?(x, y, dir)
    return true if res
    nx = x + (d == 6 ? 1 : d == 4 ? -1 : 0)
    ny = y + (d == 2 ? 1 : d == 8 ? -1 : 0)
    return ($game_map.valid?(nx, ny) and $game_party.actors[0].armor4_id == DEBUG_ID and
        Input.press?(Input::CTRL))
  end
 
end

I just noticed Icedmetal has bugs there. O_o

[Rune]

Hmm... thanks 
I think i'll use the first script... but I'm going to need to know how to make an item unsellable... or so that you can't lose it or give it away.
And I'll also need an airship sprite... and a diagonal one if possible
Thanks in advance

[Blizzard]

No problem, lol! I only wanted to make a point, the script might be buggy, I haven't tested it. You can make items unsellable by just setting their price to 0.

[Rune]

Hmm... none of those scripts work... the first one gives me an error whenever i try moving...

Code Select Expand

Script 'Airship' line 54: NoMethodError occurred
undefined method 'armor3_id=' for #<game_actor:0x154cba8>
The line is:

Code Select Expand

    if $game_actors[1].armor3_id = ACCESS_ID_NUMBER and Input.press?(Input::CTRL)

The second script first, gives me a Syntax Error which I think I can sort... but then, before I can start, it gives me

Code Select Expand

Script 'Airship' line 9:NameError occurred.
undefined method 'passable?' for class 'Game_Player'
The line is:

Code Select Expand

  alias passable_debug_extra_later? passble?

If you can sort this out, that would be great Thanks in advance

[Blizzard]

Typos, lol! Here's the fixed thing.

Code Select Expand

# Debug Ring by Blizzard

# Set DEBUG_ID to the accessory ID which will allow phasing.

DEBUG_ID = 24

class Game_Player < Game_Character
 
  alias passable_debug_extra_later? passable?
  def passable?(x, y, dir)
    res = passable_debug_extra_later?(x, y, dir)
    return true if res
    nx = x + (d == 6 ? 1 : d == 4 ? -1 : 0)
    ny = y + (d == 2 ? 1 : d == 8 ? -1 : 0)
    return ($game_map.valid?(nx, ny) and $game_party.actors[0].armor4_id == DEBUG_ID and
        Input.press?(Input::CTRL))
  end
 
end

YAY!!!

[Edit]
Grrr...
When I try going through a wall when I don't have the item equipped... it comes up with an error:

Code Select Expand

Script 'Airship' line 13: NameError occurred
undefined local variable or method 'd' for #<Game_Player:0x1343f10>

[Edit 2]
I get the same error with it equipped

[Blizzard]

Fix'd.

Grrrr... new error

This time it happens when I try to move again

(Why am I so crap at scripting?)
