Accessory-Magic Combination

[Street_Samurai]

Okay, another question...
In my current project (For RXP) I wanted to make it, so that in order to cast spells, you need to have an accessory equipped, for example.

Say the main charecter obtains the FIRE CARD, when equipped, they will be able to cast Fire, Fire 2 and Burn, is this at all possible?

Oh, and if it is, is it also possible to maybe make it so, as they fight, they can permanently learn the spell on the cards?

Please be descriptive, I can get confused easily

That has been done more or less with a script. it was called the spell tablet system. I don't have the demo anymore though. Normally you'll find it on this or some other website floating around somewhere

Or you could use an evented system.

For that you'd have to make a common event set on parrallel process. Once your game starts switch it on.
In this event set a conditional branch for each of your equipment that makes you learn spells, with condition that this equipment is actually equipped.
Make it so that when this condition is met the spell/skill is learnt.
Set an else handling that has a conditional branch inside again. Condition: Lets say variable x lower than 30.
If this condition is met set the skill to be forgotten.
Now you link each skill to it's own conditional branch that sets variable x (same one as before) +1.

This way if you have used a skill more than 29 times it won't be forgotten by discarding the equpment again.

Hope this helps (and actually works quite as well as I imagined it)

I have a simple script that allows actors to lear skill with equipment.

Weapon_Skills[Weapon ID] = [Skills IDs]
Armor_Skills[Armor ID] = [Skills IDs]

This don't work with multi-slot scripts.

#===============================================================================

# Equi Skill

module Atoa

  Weapon_Skills = [] #Don't remove or change this line

  Armor_Skills  = [] #Don't remove or change this line

  

  Weapon_Skills[1] = [1]

  Weapon_Skills[2] = [2]

 

  Armor_Skills[1]  = [7]

  Armor_Skills[2]  = [10]

  Armor_Skills[29] = [8]

end

    if new_skills != nil

      for learning in new_skills

        if !self.skill_learn?(learning) and !@equipment_skills.include?(learning)

          @equipment_skills.push(learning)

          self.learn_skill(learning)

        end

      end

    end

  def exp=(exp)

    lose_equip_skills

    @exp = [[exp, 9999999].min, 0].max

    while @exp >= @exp_list[@level+1] and @exp_list[@level+1] > 0

      @level += 1

      for j in $data_classes[@class_id].learnings

        if j.level == @level

          learn_skill(j.skill_id)

        end

      end

    end

    while @exp < @exp_list[@level]

      @level -= 1

    end

    @hp = [@hp, self.maxhp].min

    @sp = [@sp, self.maxsp].min

    gain_equip_skills

  end

end

I have an improved version of it (My actor advanced status, wich come with multi equip slots and equipments sets) but for now it's compatible only with my ACBS and the SBS Tankentai.
