VICTOR'S DAMAGE POPUP - NEED HELP

So I'm using Victor's Damage Popup script. As found here...

( Tested on a completely new project with just Victor's Basic Engine + Damage Popup script, results remain the same )

What I'm having a problem with, is on Line 286, where you can customize the 'wait' feature. I want to use the 'Random' option to make the text randomly go off to the right or left. So I put 'True' for random. This causes the error:

author=Error
line 1201: TypeError occured
nil can't be coerced into Float

And here's the section of the code.

author=Victor Damage Popup
1193 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1194 # * New method: set_move_values
1195 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1196 def set_move_values(*args)
1197 @adj_x = (args - args) / (@base * 0.33)
1198 @adj_y = (args - args) / (@base * 0.33)
1199 @zoom_max_x = args
1200 @zoom_max_y = args
1201 @move_x = args * (args ? @random : 1.0) * (@damage_mirror ? -1 : 1)
1202 @move_y = args
1203 @gravity = -args
1204 end

Any ideas on how to fix this?

1198 @adj_y = (args - args) / (@base * 0.33)

1200 @zoom_max_y = args
1201 @move_x = args * (args ? @random : 1.0) * (@damage_mirror ? -1 : 1)
1202 @move_y = args
1203 @gravity = -args
1204 end

That's the entire part of the code that I think the problem is with.

Thanks for the response. :3
So there's no way to get the random function to work for the Damage Script is pretty much what you're saying? O: Or is there a number in that line I can change or so?

OHHH wait I think I might get it, you don't put 'True' you put a number?
EDIT: Apperently not, didn't work. x:

Ah, sorry it did that. D: Glad you can see what's happened though.

On and near line 286, you can customize the various effects, like 'Wait', 'Pop1', 'Rise', etc. And you can choose start x coordinates, etcetc. at the end, you can choose True/False for Random. When I set it to true, it does the error mentioned above.

author=Damage Popup
284 VE_POP_BEHAVIOR = {
285 #type: [ZoomX, ZoomY, StartX, StartY, MoveX, MoveY, Gravt, Random],
286 wait: [ 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0, false],

It isn't aligned exactly, but I'm trying to change the part highlighted in Red to True.

Yep, it works fine when it's false.
But when it's true, I get that error.

Nope. Tested it, and it does the same error.
Something to note, not sure if it's important, is if I put it on 'true' and the effect that's on true doesn't occur in battle, it doesn't give me any errors.
So the error happens only when it's supposed to occur in the battle.

Alright put it above 1201, and got this;

author=Error
Script 'Victor Damage Popup' line 1201: NoMethodError occured

undefined method '' for nil:NilClass

Put it above and below, just to be sure, same thing. o:

There's brackets that arn't showing after 'undefined method', need to quote to show them I guess.

Alrighty, so any idea on what I should set random to instead of False or will it not be able to work? o.o

Honestly it's just the script, not the project that's the problem. o: I mean I can send you the entire project to download or you can go to the link in the first post, make a quick new project yourself, put the script in and just work it that way. xD Up to you.
I can link you to the Victor Basic, and Victor Damage, and you can just make a new project and plug those in without the hassle of a big download if that'd be easier.
Cuz even when doing a new project with just those two scripts, it does the same thing.

Alrighty, sent a pm with the essentials. :3 Thanks again!
