evasion help, please

[Silencher]

I really need help with evasion, I'd really like it to be a big part of my battle system so I need help with 2 things.

1: How do you display it in the status screen/equip screen?

2. How do I make it so it actually does what it seems to, in other words, if someone's evade is 30, will it really avoid 30% of all attacks all the time? if not, how can I tweak the battle system to make it work correctly?

I can't help you with the first question.

Currently a character's chance to evade in percent is: His Evasion + 8 * (His Agility / Attacker's dexterity)

If you want to tweak the battle system so that a character evades just it's Evasion in percent, first go to the script editor and then click on Game_Battler 3. Line 73 should say "eva = 8 * self.agi / attacker.dex + self.eva". Change that line to "eva = self.eva". Then still in Game_Battler 3, find line 158 which should say "eva = 8 * self.agi / user.dex + self.eva" and change that to "eva = self.eva".

Note that unless you make a skill based on dexterity, the only role dexterity now has is to effect critical hit rate.

okay right now I had some help from a friend with this and he got me as far as this:

in window_base I added:
when 7
parameter_name = "Evasion"
parameter_value = actor.eva
under the intelligence one

and in window_status I added

draw_actor_parameter(@actor, 96, 412, 7)

under the same parameter except 6 instead. I altered the 412, it was a different number for intelligence.. and yet now it still is not showing in the window.

in addition, I can't seem to move how the stats are displayed, any new parameters I add don't have a single effect. Can anyone help me out with this cause I'm stuck, I'm definately no scripter..
