different mp types?

i thought i saw it, but now i cant find a script that allows different actors different types of mp. for example: 1 actor having MP while another actor has SP or AP or whatever. Any ideas?

I'm sure I've seen a similar script to what you want but I might be mistaken, or it was part of another script.

If you're only wanting to change the text that appears next to the 'MP' value, then this should suffice. I've not really tested it with too many scripts that might use the draw_actor_mp method. I'm still in the process of figuring out how to make proper use of the aliasing so it just overwrites the way that draw_actor_mp works.

It'll change only the vocab for the actors whose ids are included. Everyone else's mp vocab will be the default set in the database. I also shifted the text to the left a little to make a little room for the numbers. Might be better ideas, but meh, gave me something else to do whilst having a break from writing my other scripts.

module LF

  MP_VOCAB = { #DNR
 
# ACTOR ID => NAME FOR MP
  1 => "MP",
  2 => "SP",
  3 => "AP",
 
  } #DNR
end

class Window_Base
 
  def draw_actor_mp(actor, x, y, width = 120)
    draw_actor_mp_gauge(actor, x, y, width)   
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    if LF::MP_VOCAB.include?(actor.id)
      self.contents.draw_text(x-5, y, 30, WLH, LF::MP_VOCAB[actor.id])
    else
      self.contents.draw_text(x-5, y, 30, WLH, Vocab::mp_a)
    end
    self.contents.font.color = mp_color(actor)
    last_font_size = self.contents.font.size
    xr = x + width
    if width < 120
      self.contents.draw_text(xr - 44, y, 44, WLH, actor.mp, 2)
    else
      self.contents.draw_text(xr - 99, y, 44, WLH, actor.mp, 2)
      self.contents.font.color = normal_color
      self.contents.draw_text(xr - 55, y, 11, WLH, "/", 2)
      self.contents.draw_text(xr - 44, y, 44, WLH, actor.maxmp, 2)
    end
  end
 
end


Works great! Thanks! If you know of a way to add an option to change the color of the MP Guages for the different Vocabs, that would be great. If not, no biggie.

Thanks again!

Shouldn't be a big problem, just depends on how you'd want the color to be set. I usually add a bit that allows you to specify the rgba values of the text and then create a color based on those entries. I'll get to it if it works and no one else has better ideas.

Thanks. Specifying the rgba sounds good. I've been trying to learn how to script, but i havn't had the time to sit and learn it.

It works as far as I'm able to tell. It's always hard to test your own script because you're aware of what to do with it. Just poke me if it doesn't work.

I've dated it and put the update notes on too, in case it wants to be used. Specifically if it doesn't want to work with other scripts - it's untested for compatibility because I don't use many other people's scripts whilst writing my own.
