PHATLIZZY51'S PROFILE

The simplest way I can think of would be to duplicate the state instead of stacking its effect.

But that's just a thought. I have no experience with RMMV plugins.

Is that possible? I would think that would require several different versions of the same state, and if State 1 is applied, then apply State 2, etc... Is there a simpler way that I'm totally missing?

I tried adding a "Turn Counter" variable that increases by 1 at the start of each turn and resets to 1 after reaching 3. I modified the Yanfly DoT Stacking Script but it's not working. FYI I have no experience scripting, I can just understand well enough to make minor tweaks, so this is way above my head.

<Custom Apply Effect>
// Make sure the stack count exists.
target._stackingPoison = target._stackingPoison || 0;
// Increase the stack count.
target._stackingPoison += 1;
// Get value of Turn Counter variable
var t = $gameVariables.value(11);
// Set counter for each stack of DoT applied this turn
if (t === 1)
{var x += 1;
}
if (t === 2)
{var y += 1;
}
if (t === 3)
{var z += 1;
}
</Custom Apply Effect>

<Custom Remove Effect>
// Reset the stack count.
target._stackingPoison = 0;
</Custom Remove Effect>

<Custom Regenerate Effect>
// Make sure the stack count exists.
target._stackingPoison = target._stackingPoison || 1;
var t = $gameVariables.value(11);
if (t === 1)
{var stacks = target._stackingPoison - y;
}
if (t === 2)
{var stacks = target._stackingPoison - z;
}
if (t === 3)
{var stacks = target._stackingPoison - x;
}
// The damage formula used per tick.
var damage = stacks * 20;
// Play poison animation on the target.
target.startAnimation(59);
// Target takes HP damage.
target.gainHp(-damage);
// Play the popup.
target.startDamagePopup();
// Clear the results.
target.clearResult();
// Check if the target is dead.
if (target.isDead()) {
// If the target is dead, make it collapse.
target.performCollapse();
}
</Custom Regenerate Effect>

I would like to use an item that adds an "Attack State" to certain Skills.

Ex) Using an item to add a "Poisoned Weapons" state that adds a chance to cause a "Poison" effect on an enemy. The "Attack State" modifier only applies to the normal/default attack. I would like this to also apply to skills that deal physical damage, but not spells or buffs.

Any ideas?

My train of thought is going somewhere like this:

-The passive state that resists death is applied to all allies at the beginning of combat.
-They also get another state that has no benefits or penalties, but dissolves when taking damage. It is applied at the beginning of each round of combat
-You do a check at the end of the turn/round to see if the "damage-wall" state is still there.
--If it's not there, check to see if they have 0 HP.
---If they do, check against the RNG.
----If the RNG fails, the resist death state dissolves, and they should follow suit?

I like the idea of the "damage wall" applied at the beginning of each round, but I'm not sure how to incorporate the RNG part. I need an event or something that fires whenever a character receives damage so that I can run the RNG. Maybe an event that runs when the state is removed?

I am planning on accuracy and dodge being a big part of my game, with some attacks having lower accuracy but better damage, and some enemies having higher dodge chance. I want the player to be able to see the chance to hit, so they can make a decision about which attack to use (I am using yanfly's Hit accuracy plugin so chance to hit = skill accuracy - target dodge).

How would I go about this? Ideally the hit chance would display when an attack is selected and an enemy is hovered over, but I am open to other ways. I would be interested in showing enemy defense, and/or other stats as well but my primary concern is hit chance.

Trying to use a system where characters at 0 HP can still act normally, but if they are hit again when at 0 HP they die.

I changed state #1 to "last stand" and set restriction to "none". I gave my enemy a skill with a 100% chance to add the "dead" state, and gave my actors a 0% state rate for "dead". The "last stand" state adds a state rate of 100% for "dead". "Last stand" is removed by healing skills.

When I tested this, my characters get the "last stand" state when they reach 0 HP, but their turns are still skipped over and the enemy no longer targets them. Eventually all characters have the "last stand" state and the battle ends saying my party was defeated. How to I make the game understand my characters are not dead at 0HP?
