[RMMZ] HOW TO DISABLE BATTLE HUD WHILE USING SHOW TEXT COMMAND

Hey guys! I'm trying to make a tutorial battle for my game. What I'd like to do is have text explaining what everything does while I have an arrow picture pointing to whatever I'm talking about. However whenever I use the show text command in the troop event the HUD disappears; does anyone know of a way to have text show in a battle without the normal HUD disappearing? I've seen some plugins for MV that fix this but none for MZ. I'd really appreciate some help solving this!
