Edit to the HP/SP system

[WeAreSuperhero]

I was wondering if it was possible for someone to remove SP, ie when you use a skill instead of removing SP it removes HP. Would this be possible?

 

[Crimson Ninja]

It's possible, but do you want to have it so that you can still see the SP ?

 

[WeAreSuperhero]

No, so SP would be removed from the game and when you set how much SP is consumed fora skill have it remove it from HP instead, you know?

 

[Crimson Ninja]

Do you want a demo? or should I post the scripts?

 

[WeAreSuperhero]

Whichever would be more convenient to you =] script would be fine.

 

[Crimson Ninja]

okay,

1.
find
(Scene_Battle4 line 341)

@active_battler.sp -= @skill.sp_cost

and replace with this

@active_battler.hp -= @skill.sp_cost

2.
find and delete this:
(Window_Base line 240-269)

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Draw SP
  #     actor : actor
  #     x     : draw spot x-coordinate
  #     y     : draw spot y-coordinate
  #     width : draw spot width
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def draw_actor_sp(actor, x, y, width = 144)
    # Draw "SP" text string
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(x, y, 32, 32, $data_system.words.sp)
    # Calculate if there is draw space for MaxHP
    if width - 32 >= 108
      sp_x = x + width - 108
      flag = true
    elsif width - 32 >= 48
      sp_x = x + width - 48
      flag = false
    end
    # Draw SP
    self.contents.font.color = actor.sp == 0 ? knockout_color :
      actor.sp <= actor.maxsp / 4 ? crisis_color : normal_color
    self.contents.draw_text(sp_x, y, 48, 32, actor.sp.to_s, 2)
    # Draw MaxSP
    if flag
      self.contents.font.color = normal_color
      self.contents.draw_text(sp_x + 48, y, 12, 32, "/", 1)
      self.contents.draw_text(sp_x + 60, y, 48, 32, actor.maxsp.to_s)
    end
  end

3. search (CTRL+F) with draw_actor_sp
and delete this

draw_actor_sp(actor, *, **)

(* and ** are wild cards they are each time different.)
in
Window_Help (line 43)
Menu_Status (line 35)
Window_Skillstatus(line 26)
Window_Target(line 32)
Window_Status(line 29)
Window_Battlestats(line 41)

If you don't get I can give you a Demo

The SDK doesnt like that one bit. Would there be a way to alias it so the SDK doesnt hate it? I get this error -

Instead of deleting the whole method, just delete these lines within the method:

self.contents.draw_text(x, y, 32, 32, $data_system.words.sp)
self.contents.draw_text(sp_x, y, 48, 32, actor.sp.to_s, 2)
self.contents.draw_text(sp_x + 48, y, 12, 32, "/", 1)
self.contents.draw_text(sp_x + 60, y, 48, 32, actor.maxsp.to_s)

 

[WeAreSuperhero]

It loads now, but nothing happens. The SP is gone, apart from in battle where you get this -

And the stamina doesnt go down, the SP bar still goes down in battle.

 

[Crimson Ninja]

hmm, I tried it (I don't use SDK) and it worked for though, I think you need to ask someone else couse I don't know anything about the SDK

 

[WeAreSuperhero]

Argh D=< yeah it does work sans SDK. Well thankyou anyway =] I'm gonna try and sort this out.
