Enemy Hp, Sp, Status and Name.

ENEMY HP, SP, STATUS and NAME WHEN YOU TARGET HIM!

Well, This is A little request, that I based on a script called 'Advance Target'.
The Idea of this system is show the HP, SP, Status (Poison..blah...) and name of the enemy, instead the bore help window that only show the name.

For example, Change this window (the default help target window).

This script need to be compatible with the SDK, but I think a script like this doesn't cause Much Incompatibily Issues.

Well, That is All.

THanks for read this.

 

[tibuda]

try this

class Window_Help
  def set_enemy(enemy)
    set_actor(enemy)
  end
end

 

[mephisto]

O great mr.Tibuda, that works perfectly!
You did not expect me it, even you show the bars of life ( of trickster's script ) for the enemies.

Thanks and Double Thanks!

Hey tibuda, question...is it possible that the window can be changed when you have a certain member in your party? Like if you don't have the person yet, you have just the name showing...but when you have the person in your party the additional info shows up instead.

 

[SephirothSpawn]

Something like this:

class Window_Help
  Scan_Actors = []
  alias_method :sephtib_enemybattlehelp_wnhlp_se, :set_enemy
  def set_enemy(enemy)
    $game_party.actors.each do |actor|
      if Scan_Actors.include?(actor.actor_id)
        set_actor(enemy)
        return
      end
    end
    sephtib_enemybattlehelp_wnhlp_se(enemy)
  end
end

Just fill the Scan_Actors = [] with actor_ids that allow you to scan for this information.

 

[BellGoRiiing]

Do I put this in a new script above main or something? (I'm not very good with scripting, lol)
And put the number of the actor in the [] right?

 

[SephirothSpawn]

Put in new script above Main.

Lets say you want this to work when actors 3, 4 and 6 are in the party (you only need one).

Scan_Actors = [3, 4, 6]

 

[BellGoRiiing]

Alright, thanks.

 

[BellGoRiiing]

Hey, I put in the script in everything. But when I went to test out a battle I get an error in line 2 saying something about "name error" or whatever. I even took out the script completely and still gave me the error.

 

[Marcel_Makkink]

class Window_Help
  def set_enemy(enemy)
    set_actor(enemy)
  end
end

This is very neat however after the attacks are over or if I press B and reselect the same enemy, the bar won't show up.:s..

Edit; I puzzled a bit, the bar will show now but it won't update HP/MP/Status.

You are right, someone can fix that bug?

Thanks Seph, I'll test this out soon...

 

[mephisto]

Thanks Mr.Sephirothspawn, the script works 'OK', but produce lag when you target the enemy and (When the script is activated).. I don't know Why, but the lag it's horrible.

Thanks Though!

 

[SephirothSpawn]

This should reduce the lag a bit:

[shiroun]

seph, you forgot to add in self.visible = true if enemy != @enemy, which means it will Frame by Frame


edit: damn, you beat me to it lol.
