Changing Battle System for RM2K3 to Turn Based

[Jakester443]

  I've been searching through this site for quite some time now, but have yet to find someone ask the question I have in mind, so forgive me if I am wrong and someone has asked this already.
 Is there anyway to change the battle system in 2k3 so that it is turn-based, rather than time-based? What I mean by this is that 2k3 uses a time bar that must fill up first before you can attack. Is there a way to remove this and make it so that both parties (user-controlled and AI-controlled) takes turns fighting, using whoever's agility is highest to proceed after moves are selected?
 My only game examples are Lunar (original and Eternal Blue) and Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga. I know these are bad examples, but they are what I have played, so forgive me again.
 Any help would be much appreciated. And, again, sorry if this question has been asked already.
