Cross Commands

[blazingamer]

I modeled a cross command system for battle since my brother likes them.  So in my spare time I made it.

#==============================================================================
#  CrossCommand
#  
#   Blazingamer
#  -----------------------------------------
#   Makes a pretty command window in a shape of a cross like in Wild Arms
#==============================================================================

class CrossCommand < Window_Selectable

  def initialize
	super(320 - 128, 160 - 128, 256, 256)
	self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
	self.opacity = 0
	@commands = ["attack", "magic","defend","items","run away"]
	@item_max = 5
	draw_item(0, 32,32,"Attack")
	draw_item(1, 32,0, "Magic")
	draw_item(2, 64,32,"Defend")
	draw_item(3, 0,32, "Items")
	draw_item(4, 32,64, "Run")
	self.active = false
	self.visible = false
	self.index = 0
  end

  def draw_item(index, x, y, icon)   
	bitmap = RPG::Cache.icon(icon)
	self.contents.blt(x, y, bitmap, Rect.new(0, 0, 32, 32))
  end

  def update_cursor_rect
	if index == 3
	  self.cursor_rect.set(0, 32, 32, 32)
	elsif index == 2
	  self.cursor_rect.set(64, 32, 32, 32)
	elsif index == 1
	   self.cursor_rect.set(32,0,32,32)
	elsif index == 4
	   self.cursor_rect.set(32,64,32,32)
	else
	   self.cursor_rect.set(32,32,32,32)
	end
	if Input.press?(Input::LEFT)
	  @index = 3
	elsif Input.press?(Input::RIGHT)
	  @index = 2
	elsif Input.press?(Input::UP)
	  @index = 1
	elsif Input.press?(Input::DOWN)
	  @index = 4
	else
	  @index = 0
	end
  end
end

class Scene_Battle
  
  def update_phase3_basic_command
	if Input.trigger?(Input::B)
	  $game_system.se_play($data_system.cancel_se)
	  phase3_prior_actor
	  return
	end
	if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
	  case @actor_command_window.index

	  return
	end
  end
end

Instead of using pictures, it uses 32 x 32 pixels icons.  You can change the size of the icons to what ever size you want, but it will take a bit of adjustments in the script.

To use it in battle, replace

@actor_command_window = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4])

with

@actor_command_window = CrossCommand.new

To use it, you can either make your own icons or if you want, use these provided for you

nice one, homie. But it does'nt work With TRTAB for me. Do you think you can fix it?

By the way, Simple, yet effective. VERY nice work. Kudos!

For some reason, when I hold "Up", the cursor will flash between up and center. But this doesn't happen for the other directions.

Or, better yet, it there anyway to make it so you don't have to hold the directional button? Like, if you press 'Up' and want to go back to 'attack', you just press 'down'?

I can't seem to scroll through the options or see the text (I assume there should be captions for options?)
I think it's incompatible with SDK.

 

[yoshuad]

Hey man... this script dont work
please if you can put some Demo
thank you

 

[Taylor]

Ah... you have to hold down the arrow key to get the corresponding item.
The icons should highlight when a button is held down, that would help work out how to choose items.

 

[blazingamer]

I don't know what's wrong with what you're doing JT, but there aren't supposed to be captions and the buttons do highlight, they have a square around the selected one.

Very nice script I might need to fiddle around with the coordinates to suit the battle system I'm using.
Btw I like the icons.

Necro post sorry but can you fix the bug?

well i must say, the icons are cool, but the whole system is just messy,
there's just 3  problems i found with it so far...

1. if u hold up it flicks between middle and top icon,

2. it's annoying that the CRAP "fight - escape" options appear after every round,

and...

3. when you select magic, it only uses the skill in the first skill slot.

If you could sort those out I would definatly use this in my new game I'm making,
other than those 3 points though, it will be a great CBS if you deal with these issues.
