Heyas again. I was wondering if someone could help me find the code in ccoa's battle system where it displays damage delt on screen? It gets confusing looking between her code and the default system trying to figure out whats what at times. >.o

What exactly are you looking for? The code where the sprite is told how much damage to display? Or the code that calls the damage pop? Or the code that creates the damage pop itself?

Well I already know where it figures out how much damage. Id probably want to look at both of the other two because what I want to do in the end is kind of complicated.

This is the code that calls the damage pop, it's in CBS Sprite_Battler (it's unchanged from the original code):

Code:
      # Damage
      if @battler.damage_pop
        damage(@battler.damage, @battler.critical)
        @battler.damage = nil
        @battler.critical = false
        @battler.damage_pop = false
      end

The actual damage pop is in the RPG::Sprite class, which you can view in the Help file. The #damage method looks like this:

Code:
    def damage(value, critical)
      dispose_damage
      if value.is_a?(Numeric)
        damage_string = value.abs.to_s
      else
        damage_string = value.to_s
      end
      bitmap = Bitmap.new(160, 48)
      bitmap.font.name = "Arial Black"
      bitmap.font.size = 32
      bitmap.font.color.set(0, 0, 0)
      bitmap.draw_text(-1, 12-1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      bitmap.draw_text(+1, 12-1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      bitmap.draw_text(-1, 12+1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      bitmap.draw_text(+1, 12+1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      if value.is_a?(Numeric) and value < 0
        bitmap.font.color.set(176, 255, 144)
      else
        bitmap.font.color.set(255, 255, 255)
      end
      bitmap.draw_text(0, 12, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      if critical
        bitmap.font.size = 20
        bitmap.font.color.set(0, 0, 0)
        bitmap.draw_text(-1, -1, 160, 20, "CRITICAL", 1)
        bitmap.draw_text(+1, -1, 160, 20, "CRITICAL", 1)
        bitmap.draw_text(-1, +1, 160, 20, "CRITICAL", 1)
        bitmap.draw_text(+1, +1, 160, 20, "CRITICAL", 1)
        bitmap.font.color.set(255, 255, 255)
        bitmap.draw_text(0, 0, 160, 20, "CRITICAL", 1)
      end
      @_damage_sprite = ::Sprite.new(self.viewport)
      @_damage_sprite.bitmap = bitmap
      @_damage_sprite.ox = 80
      @_damage_sprite.oy = 20
      @_damage_sprite.x = self.x
      @_damage_sprite.y = self.y - self.oy / 2
      @_damage_sprite.z = 3000
      @_damage_duration = 40
    end
