CloseI can't seem to make the escape option work with battles and I can't figure out why! I have it set to allow it to occur but when you chose it from the main battle menu nothing happens?
^^^ Doesn't even give you a "you failed to escape message.
Heres what the event looks like:
Whats the issue? Can I just get rid of the escape option from the main battle menu?
Because I have gotten escape to work as a battle command... But even as a battle command its not 100% successful and I can't figure out how to change that either.

iirc there's something dumb with escape in some battle layouts. You might need to use a character command to escape than using the party command. Hopefully a 2k3 regular knows more.
There are two escape options. The one you just showed in the screenshot will (iirc) only work when all characters have a full ATB bar, for example when you have the initiative.
The other one is a battle command you can add (available from each character's battle command menu) which will succeed with a probability which is calculated using some formula, I believe it includes the party's (and enemies' ?) ATB values and agility values.
And the reason nothing happens is because this command is actually greyed, but you don't see it because it looks like your system graphic has the same color in the 1st (normal) and the 4th (grayed) spot, so you won't see a difference.
And no, currently you can't get rid of this option (unless you switch to an older engine version and apply the NoAutoBattle patch, but this will open another can of worms because you will lose the new features added in RM v1.10+).

Ah! Thank you so much Cherry for clearing things up! I've set the characters to have a battle command and that is working well enough. I feel pretty silly about the greyed-out thing though, it never occurred to me that it was something I messed up on the system graphic.
I did some more digging myself because GRS wording made me think of another way to google the issue and I found that if you set the battle to preemptive then when you first enter battle you can escape immediately. It doesn't seem to work after that but I'm guessing that's because I never tried it when all the characters ATB bars were full.
