Battle Animation Flash

[Jaberwoky]

Basically I need to get the z value for the screen flash in battle animations to around 5000 or so without changing the z value for the animation cells 0_o
Looked around and found the 'animation_process_timing' method is controlling the animation flash, but it's not defined in the Sprite class or anywhere I can find x_x
The problem is this:

I have the animation system set up to show animations at the z level of their target. Since the target is higher up the screen than Mitzy, it shows the screen flash below her. This can make some animations look really, really dumb s:
I figure I can set the flash to show in a different viewport than the animation or something, but I don't know how the method works in the first place, so I can't really change it x_x

I don't think it'll help, but here ya go: http://ninjapenguin.info/temp/Animation%20Problem.exe
It uses the default system with sephs multi animation script outside of battler for my ABS, and the rtabs animation system with an edit of derrvulf's animation flip system in battle.

Remember, i just need to change the Z value of the screen flashes, nothing else x.x

Here's the fixed one . please change the z value if you wish , I let it be at 1000 .

You ripped everything from your demo...

Thank you so much @_@
I understand how the animation system works much better now, and have the flashes playing in their own seperate viewport now, thanks to you ^_^

Also... what do you mean, 'ripped everything from the demo' ? o_O
