paste the block so you'll have two
edit if @active_battler.current_action.basic == 0 to this
if @active_battler.current_action.basic == 5
remover the if block
if @active_battler.is_a?(Game_Enemy) all the way to the lines

end

for people who want this command to do nothing put increase evade
make a copy of the if block that starts and end like this

OPTIONAL
edit @help_window.set_text($data_system.words.guard, 1)

LAST PART (still working on this part) all of the other stuff was easy, but this is the hard part
actually implementing the battle command within your game many ways

1) create armor that you want the effect to be added to in a turn 0 battle event make a conditional branch if the character has that armor equipped then call script with this in it $game_actors[THE PERSON WITH IT].battle_commands.push("Smoke Screen") DO a test battle with one of the battlers with the equipment and see if the new command was added
If it wasn't then create a status effect with a rating of 0 (It will not show up) and set the armor to auto inflict the status effect now change the condition branch to say if the battler has this status effect then call script $game_actors[THE PERSON WITH IT].battle_commands.push("Smoke Screen")

this method works but you have to put this battle event in every battle  currently working on a script for linking battle commands to armor and weapons

2) use a parallel process common event to add the effect

EDIT
3) In the beginning of the game call a script with this in it

Code Select Expand


temp = $game_actors[THE PERSON WITH IT].battle_commands + ["Smoke Screen"]
$game_actors[THE PERSON WITH IT].battle_commands = temp


or

Code Select Expand


temp = $game_actors[THE PERSON WITH IT].battle_commands << "Smoke Screen"
$game_actors[THE PERSON WITH IT].battle_commands = temp

what excatly do these do?

[trickster]

what excatly do these do?

In a battle you see the commands "Attack" "Skills" "Defend" and "Item" the two scripts above are for the code to make the database recognize two new commands and when it's selected in battle it executes a different effect like evade a attack, counterattacking, and other stuff.

Name: Magic Defense (EDIT)
Description: This defense only works on spells divides the damage by 3 and heals sp according to the sp cost of the spell

0) Add this variable to Game_Temp

4) OPTIONAL

Code Select Expand


if @active_battler.current_action.basic == 7

end


5) add this in update_phase4_step5 after the for block

Code Select Expand


     if $game_temp.magicaldefend
       $game_temp.targetsaver.second_damage_pop = true
       $game_temp.targetsaver.second_restorative = true

         $game_temp.targetsaver.sp -= $game_temp.targetsaver.second_damage
       end
         $game_temp.magicaldefend = false


6) add this in when 3 of the Game Enemy portion of set target battlers (scope)

Code Select Expand


$game_temp.targetsaver =  @target_battlers


7) Last step in Color_Fix add after the first damage pop

Code Select Expand


if @battler.second_damage_pop

@battler.second_damage = nil
@battler.second_critical = false
@battler.second_damage_pop = false
@battler.second_restorative = false
end

note: the healed sp in this script and the regen script are not shown I have a fix for this I'll post it later

[trickster]

name: Regenerate EDIT
description: when attacked heals a portion of the damage taken the lesser the hp you have the more you'll recover

0) Add the magical defense command first

1) Game_Battler 1

Code Select Expand


def regenerate?
return (@current_action.kind == 0 and @current_action.basic == 8)
end


2)class Game_Battler 3 method skill_effect and attack_effect
Find self.hp -= self.damage in both of the methods and add this before it

Code Select Expand


       if self.regenerate?
         $game_temp.regenerate = true

4) OPTIONAL

Code Select Expand


if @active_battler.current_action.basic == 8
@help_window.set_text("The text goes here", 1)
return
end


5) after where you put the effect code for Magical defense put this

Code Select Expand


           if $game_temp.regenerate
        $game_temp.targetsaver.second_damage_pop = true
       $game_temp.targetsaver.second_restorative = true
       healed = 0
       healed += $game_temp.targetsaver.damage
       randomregen = -rand(healed) - $game_temp.targetsaver.maxhp / ($game_temp.targetsaver.hp + 1)  - 2
       $game_temp.targetsaver.hp -= randomregen
       $game_temp.targetsaver.second_damage = randomregen
       $game_temp.targetsaver.hp -= $game_temp.targetsaver.second_damage
     end
     $game_temp.regenerate = false

This fix also removes a bug if your hp went to 0 (division by zero error)

[Lord Dante]

those r pretty cool...

[trickster]

Ok figured out the solution to why battle commands won't link to armor well battle commands will not link to accessories because the person who did the original coding in ruby (The Interpretor class) made a mistake and the conditional branch event will not detect accessories worn by the battler (hmmn)
to correct it

class Interpreter 3 method command_111
look for
when 4
result = (actor.armor1_id ...  == @parameters[3])

change the last ")" to " or " and add actor.armor4_id == @parameters[3])


note: This next part = a turn 0 battle event
There that fixes it now to autolink the battle command to it create armor or a weapon remember the ID of it goto scripts and goto Scene_Battle 1 method main add this anywhere (I placed it before start_phase1)

Item types
weapon_id for a weapon
armor1_id for a shield
armor2_id for a helmet
armor3_id for armor
armor4_id for an accessory

Code Select Expand


if $game_actors[BATTLER NUMBER].(item types) == ITEM ID
$game_actors[1].battle_commands.push("THE COMMAND")
end

name: Counter
description: Attacks and then if an ENEMY attacks the battler then the battler will counterattack

This is a pretty long addition
1) New global variables class Game Temp in their appropiate places

Code Select Expand


 attr_accessor :docounter #equals true if a counter attack is needed
 attr_accessor :targetsaver #saves the last target who was attacked
...
 @docounter = false

2) Game_Battler 1 yet again

Code Select Expand


   def counter1?

3) Game_Battler 3 attack_effect  right after self.hp -= self.damage

Code Select Expand


     if self.counter1?
       $game_temp.docounter = true
       end


if you want the character to counter even if the attacker miss
put the same thing after self.damage = "Miss"
you could also make the battle counter if attacked by a spell just put the same code in the same places in skill effect

4) Scene_Battle 3 update_phase3_basic_command put this in proper place

Here's a challenge: Can you make a skill which opens a box. In the box, you enter a 6-digit code. Each skill in the game will then be assigned a code, and when you enter a correct code in the box, it uses the corresponding skill. Otherwise, it says "Skill not found" I hope that wasn't confusing.

Am I creating a skill or a battle command it sounds easy to create

[Leeroy_Jenkins]

A skill if possible. I would try it on my own, but am completely overwhelmed with RGSS. I can make comments and... that's it...

A skill if possible. I would try it on my own, but am completely overwhelmed with RGSS. I can make comments and... that's it...

Well this is just about the best I can do It was going to be all scripting but it will not give you any time to input the number I tried everything and now this is a half script - half common event code

name: Code Breaker
description: when used input a number if it matches a predefined set of numbers a spell will be automatically cast note: this only works on the first character so if you want any character to use this command you must go down to the EXTRAS section to get the script for that (as soon as I fix it)

First create a spell (name doesn't matter if you want a battle command effect rating 0) linking to a common event remember the spell id and the common event id (only if you want this to be a battle command)

goto common events
goto the common event id from the spell

Message Display Options Bottom Don't Show
(I'll make a tiny box for it later I have to study up on this first though)
Input Number : [XXXX: Name], Y Digits (remember variable id Y - any number you want)

Conditional Branch: Variable [0015: Name] == ZZZ (ZZZ is any number)
<>Force Action: Hero 1, [The Spell], Random, Execute Now (Best I can do)
<>End Event Processing
<>
End

REPEAT THIS FOR EACH CODE
AT THE END
Message: Skill Not Found OR Play SE: '057=Wrong01', 80, 100  

Do all of the above for a spell with this effect now if you want a Battle Command with this effect then let's continue

the code above only works for the first character so with some editing you can add this instead (you need to give up another variable) I don't know what to set that variable equal to as of yet (watch this spot for an edit)

U did some cool stuff!! What about a Blitz battle command? Just like Sabin in FF6. When you select it, you have to input a combination (like  UP, DOWN, ENTER) and then the character will invoke a skill for that combination.

Easy since I already have the script, but the Key Input Processing event waits for a player to hit a key so I'm going to have to bypass that or write a script from scratch I'll see If I can do that, but If I can't then It might be *gasp* Impossible

*EDIT*  With a quick fix of the battle system It is possible  :^^:

Goto the common event you created and put this there


Now create another common event (making sure that it links where it says in the first common event "Common Event :Make one digit" ) put all of this in it


a little explaining

Key   Number     
Down   2     
Left   4     
Right   6     
Up   8     
Shift(A)   11     
X(B)   12     
Space(C)    13     
A(X)   14     
s(Y)   15     
d(Z)   16     
Button L   17     
Button R   18   

These are the normal key codes in order to get a maximum length of 8 you can't have double digits so the second common event reassigns the key's code (with the exception of Button L and Button R)

so now the new key codes as reassigned by me

Key   Number     
Shift(A)   0     
X(B)   1     
Down   2     
Space(C)    3     
Left   4     
A(X)   5     
Right   6     
s(Y)   7     
Up   8     
d(Z)   9     
Button L   17     
Button R   18   

And if the code for the skill is less than 8 say you only have to press Left, Down, and Right. There are two ways you can do this Press Left Right Down and then ButtonL(R) or Press Left Right Down (LET TIME EXPIRE & press another key) 3 seconds is ample time to press the keys for the skill[/img]

*EDIT* There is another blitz script at dubealex.com

[Leeroy_Jenkins]

Thanks so much for filling my request, but I'm a bit confused... could you use screenshots to show me how to fill out the common events? Also, where exactly do I put those scripts...

Sorry for sounding like a n00b...

EDIT: I only wanted the first character to have it anyway, so don't bother explaining the extras stuff.

I'll answer your question with a couple of pictures



Look for this in your class Scene Battle 3 method make basic action


And you can put this before the first commented line # in Scene_Battle 4 method make_basic_action_result
[/img]

[trickster]

The Coming up Next List in order
4) A steal command
5)A Charge command that powers up next attack
6)The jump command off FF6
7)The X Magic off FF6 use magic twice
8)Separating spells into two categories

[Illudar]

can you do one that allaws two attacks?

[trickster]

can you do one that allaws two attacks?

sure

*EDIT* This one was harder (the hardest to date) to code than expected    so I'll have to delay it until I figure out how

*EDIT EDIT* I made the script for it

[trickster]

Name: Auto counter (Counter fix 1)
Description: Autocounters when attack chance of working (default is 50%)

in Scene_Battle 4 find if $game_temp.docounter and put this above it

Code Select Expand


if @active_battler.is_a?(Game_Enemy)
if target.battle_commands.include?("Name of Counter")
if rand(100) >= 50 #percent chance of autocounter
 target.second_damage = target.damage
 target.second_damage_pop = true
 target.damage_pop = false
 $game_temp.docounter = false
 @animation1_id = $game_temp.targetsaver.animation1_id
 @animation2_id = $game_temp.targetsaver.animation2_id
 target = @active_battler
 @target_battlers = [@active_battler]
 for target in @target_battlers
 target.attack_effect($game_temp.targetsaver)
 end
 @help_window.set_text("Counter Attack ", 1)
 target.damage_pop = true
end
end
end

Name: Counter fix two
Description: shows damage on both enemies
in scene_battle 4 find if $game_temp.docounter and delete that whole block of code and add this

Code Select Expand


if $game_temp.docounter
target.second_damage = target.damage
target.second_damage_pop = true
target.damage_pop = false
$game_temp.docounter = false
@animation1_id = $game_temp.targetsaver.animation1_id
@animation2_id = $game_temp.targetsaver.animation2_id
target = @active_battler
@target_battlers = [@active_battler]
for target in @target_battlers
target.attack_effect($game_temp.targetsaver)
end
@help_window.set_text("Counter Attack ", 1)
target.damage_pop = true
end


And Finally
name: X Attack
description: When selected the attack will attack twice
note this is the same process as adding code breaker and blitz


Create a skill memorize id linking to a comon event memorize that too
in the common event put (VARIABLE THREE CAN BE ANY VARIABLE)

     if [Variable THREE] == 1
     Force an action of attack executing now on first hero on last target chosen x2
     end

     if [Variable THREE] == 2
     Force an action of attack executing now on second hero on last target chosen x2
     end

     if [Variable THREE] == 3
     Force an action of attack executing now on third hero on last target chosen x2
     end

     if [Variable THREE] == 4
     Force an action of attack executing now on fourth hero on last target chosen x2
     end

you should know where to put this Scene_battle 3 proper place

Name: Magic Reversal
Description: Like a counter except when a enemy casts a spell (scope = 1) on the player then the player casts the same spell back at them uses 1/2 of the sp of the spell cast

Adding this will take a lot of steps

New variables (Game_Temp)

Game_battler 1 put this anywhere you want

Code Select Expand

[trickster]

Not much to add here and any battler with this command can learn the spells

0) Create an attribute called learning or whatever

0.5) all enemy spells that you what battlers to learn need to have the attribute you just made checked

1) Game_battler 1

Code Select Expand


def learning?
return (@current_action.kind == 0 and @current_action.basic == 14)
end


2) Game_battler 3 make these two blocks of code before the return effective (last statement) in skill_effect

Code Select Expand


         if self.learning? and self.damage.is_a?(Numeric) and skill.element_set.include?("THE ID YOU CREATED")
         self.learn_skill(skill.id)
       end
     unless self.is_a?(Game_Enemy)
       if self.battle_commands.include?("Learning") and rand(100) > 50 and skill.element_set.include?("THE ID YOU CREATED")
         self.learn_skill(skill.id)
       end
     end


3)Scene_battle 3 you know where

Code Select Expand


     when "Learning"
       $game_system.se_play($data_system.decision_se)
       @active_battler.current_action.kind = 0
       @active_battler.current_action.basic = 14
       phase3_next_actor


4)Scene_battle 4 you should know where

Code Select Expand


      if @active_battler.current_action.basic == 14
     @help_window.set_text("Learning", 1)
     return
   end


And you're done
