GameOver to Heaven V 1.0

[Mr_Smith]

GameOver to Heaven, v2.0
My first script, updated!
This is very easy, just calls a common event.
In that common event, you can change the things
you loose, where you go to, etc.
For further instructions, read the comments.

#   GameOver to Heaven, v2.0
#   Made by Mr_Smith, ©Mr_Smith, all rights reserved
#   
#   What this does? Very easy. It just calls a common event when you die,
#   resulting that you lose items or whatever the gamemaker want to. 
#   Everything you want to happen, is evented in the common event nr. 1.
#   Some features, like loss percentage, cant be evented. That is scripted. 
#   Look further down for the instructions how to change the percentage.
#   And, you really HAVE to set a new starting place in the common event.
#   Otherwise, this script doenst really have affect as you keep at the same place.

  #   left, in this case. You can change it in whatever you want, even

Reply! Nothing helps as much as a reply.

Credits
This script couldn't be made without the help of Linkin_T. He made the loss percentage working. Thanks man!

 

[linkz0r]

Hey man good work on this script! ^^ I have only some comments to add...

Spoiler: Some comments...

The amount could easily be changed by calling this

$game_system.loss_percentage = number

where number is a *preferrably* a Float number. For example, you could do

$game_system.loss_percentage = -1

to double the gold amount for example ^^
But for our normal use, this variable must be a float raging from 0 to 1, like in

$game_system.loss_percentage = 0.25

so the gold amount could be reduced in 25%. Pretty easy, and probably most of people won?t even need to mess with it. But it?s a cool feature to have, if you ever decide to change the amount of money that will be lost during gameplay. For example, you could have an item that reduces the money loss after gameover in half, or totally nullify the money loss... It all depends on you, dear final user >.<

Good stuff.

 

[Mr_Smith]

Linkin, what do you mean with that? And I know that you can have 0.25, I think you can even have 0.3458983579298574 if you want...

 

[Mascarpone]

<snicker> I like the heading :p

"... to heaven." Certainly caught my attention.

I'll leave the critiquing to the people who actually understand Ruby, but kudos on your first script~ Onwards and upwards right?

 

[EJlol]

Why not make it so that you can change the deathlocation ingame instead of having that hardcode?

 

[Mr_Smith]

EJ, that the player can choose where to respawn? Well, I think that 's possible, but than I have to make certain locations. The player have to choose between that. (Switches will do the job.)

 

[EJlol]

What I actually meant was, that the player automatically goes to the latest inn / some other location he visited. The user of the script just do something like this when a player visit a inn:
$game_system.gameover_id = new_id
$game_system.gameover_x = new_x
$game_system.gameover_y = new_y

 

[Mr_Smith]

Yes, that is what I mean. Switches, if a player touch a switch, a new location is selected. That must nog VERY difficult to make...

 

[Onsokamaru]

I', a little slow today...@_@
Can this script be turned on/off at will?
So it can be made dependable on a switch/variable/item/whatever?
(Let say,for example, switch 01 = on, then you'll revive at X place. switch 01 = off, just your normal game over)

Thanks. Great Script btw.

 

[Mr_Smith]

Hmm, I can make that. But, how do you want to change the on/off? By yourself or your player?

 

[Onsokamaru]

Myself.
Mi idea is limiting the amount of times players may "revive" themselves.
If they exceed the number of times, resurrect items, lifes, whatever, the script goes "off" so the next time they die is just game over.

 

[rpgamer_01]

Thank you! I was looking all over for this. I tried to do this with events, but, it was really hard. THANKS

 

[Mr_Smith]

No problem
@Onsokamaru, I can try that. Its quite hard for me I think, 'cause this is my first script.

 

[Mac]

This is nice... a classical system....you seem to have utilised the script very well with aliasing....good job Mr_Smit!

~Mac

 

[Mr_Smith]

Thanks:P I dont like that you go to game over if you die, so I made this.

 

[AKAndy]

Where am I going wrong with this script? I've got it set to the correct map ID to transfer to, but it still comes up with the gameover screen.

 

[ChaosMaxima]

Perhaps you haven't replaced the default game over(Scene_Gameover) with this one. If you don't, you'll continue to have the same problem...

 

[RPG~NOOB!!!]

The game over scene won't stop looping plz help.

 

[rickster090]

i have the same problem as AKAndy  but i have done every thing that you have said in the instruction here is the code that is in my game please tell me where i have gone wrong.
