Enemy call for help skill problem [Rmxp]

[Leolith]

Hi, I'm doing a skill for certain enemies in my project that can call for help when they are about to die and made a skill linked with a common event to make it work (Well it should).

I added 2 appear halfway enemies among the main monster and put this in the common event:

A variable with random 1 to 10
Another variable with random 0 to 5
[Text Message]
Conditional Branch if first variable is 6 or higher then:
Conditional Branch if 2nd variable is 4 or higher then:
Make enemy 2 and 3 appear
Else
Make enemy 2 appear

That's it.

For some reason it is not working and I can't understand why :S Is it because random events don't work well in combat?

Anyone knows a solution?

Thanks.

I'm not entirely sure either. Can you upload a screenshot of the event page? It makes it much easier to understand.

Nvm

Found the problem it was a silly one.

By mistake I made the first random variable different from the conditional branch one and so it wasn't working :blush:

Thanks anyway this can be closed.

Damn, and I went though all this trouble to make this. Oh well, its here if anyone else wants to learn how.

Step 1:

• Make a new skill for the enemy, I'm calling it SOS. Put the scope on none.
• Make a Common event that sets a random variable and turns on a switch.
• Have the new skill call the common even.
  
  

Step 2:

• Hide the 2 enemies you want to appear halfway by rightclicking on them.
• Make a battle event condition triggered when the enemy's HP is below 50%
  
  

Step 3:

• In the battle event page add Force Action: SOS
• Ignore the action index, since the skill's scope is none.
• "Execute Now" lets the enemy act as soon as the conditions are met.
  
  

Step 4:

• Make a new Battle event page. Its triggered by the switched we turned on with the common event in step 1.
• Make a conditional branch that looks at the variable you set with the common event.
  If its <= 5 then appear enemies 2 and 3
  else appear only enemy 2.
• Finally, turn off Switch that the common event turned on. Otherwise the next time you fight this troop they won't been hidden.

Ah, sorry :/

I didn't use a switch on mine just like this:

Excluding the first variable having nothing to do with the skill it works after fixing that first variable.

I didn't know the enemy appearance worked outside of battle events. That would work better.
