SHOOBINATOR'S PROFILE

wile waiting for bugmenot return (easter is coming up, so who knows :P ) here's some other suggestion for PSP+

%#(whatever number is avaliable lol)

author=me
- skills only -
skill with this attribute is affected by the lowered hit% of status such as "blind".

that could be useful to those kind of skills that still rely on phisical attack (ex: swordskills) - i know i already pointed this one out but i figured i'll put it here again for better visibility lol

author=me
%#(whatever number is avaliable lol)
- skills only - u
skill with this attribute can be cast even if a status locks it (ex: silence status)

i think that's pretty much what shoobinator was asking for :)

author=me
%#(whatever number is avaliable lol)
- skills only -
skill with this attribute has a % chance of adding a status to the target

we all know that you can add to a weapon a certain % chance of adding a status, while skills do have a customized hit %, but if you want to have skills that damage the enemy and cause status, for example - you cannot have, say, 100 skill hit% and 25% causing status; this could be a good fix i believe.

You can already do the one thing here involving Blind by using his SkillAccuracyFix quick patch. I have already got this to work. And while new ideas are nice, I am actually deep in the middle of a project right now where I need a replica of a standard attack for enemies created as a skill so that damage attributes can be applied accurately. Otherwise there will be some inconsistencies with the battle system.

Although I have now realized a condition that forces a target to attack (one of the regular options for RM2k3 conditions) may be one more issue, along with silence, to make the perfect standard attack skill replica. This is because it forces the Attack command to be used (actually will need to double check this) so a skill that mimics a regular attack would not be used.

Perhaps there is a way to scrap this and just straight up add attribute types to all enemy standard attacks, maybe via a quick patch that references damage attributes by index value or something.

Fixed a bug with self-destructing enemies when using the RPS[+] patch:
download RPS[+]

author=GhostRider
it has that cool feature to write your own damage formula.

I planned to do just that, but that RPS-thingie is slowly turning into a patchwork / mess.

I'd like to know if there's ever gonna be a proper callback, before adding something that imitates it.
From my experience, people tend to not like pure numbers / won't be improving onto those kind of plugins.

What kind of bug did this update fix exactly? I want to try to reproduce the bug before and after installing this newer version of RPS+. Thanks!

I would like that the skills that i set as tactics not appear in the submenu of skills in battle. Is that possible?

Yeah, there is actually a real simple solution for that: change the skill subset of the skill on the skill's skill page to Tactics. ;)

I do that, but if i chose skill command appears the skills of the tactics command too.

Thx for answer!

Make sure in the "Battle Layout" tab of the database that you set "Tactics" to the archetype "Skill Subset". If the archetype is "Skill", it will show all skills that character knows.

Thanks guys, I will be bookmarking this page for future reference.

EDIT: I tested the latest update to RPS[+] and it didn't actually seem to solve the absorption issue.

Let me guess: regular attack with a weapon, the attribute in question is of type physical/weapon? I missed that one. (if it's not this, don't bother downloading version something something B)
download RPS[+]

Both skills and regular attacks still seem to have this absorption issue even with this most recent update.
