Help with conditional branching

[Loofah]

ok, so tonight I was hoping to make a small evented battle system to use bullets (items) when ever a cirtain actor uses a shooting skill, not really a major thing for the game, its just another small thing that makes games better, I was even hoping to release it to the public when I'm done.

But anyway, I went inot RMXP opened the database, went to the common event tab, created a new event, selected conditional branch, opened the actor tab, saw the skill section and clicked on my shooting skill. But then after all that, I discovered that there is no "if used" section for the skills just an "If Learned".

So can anyone help me out, even if its just like one line of script, please.

edit: cool I just checked and this is the exact 3000th topic in this section

You can call the common event from the skill. That way it only executes if the skill is used.

If you are using the common event to decrement the number of bullets, I assume you also want to disable the skill and/or weapon when the bullets run out.
So your common event might look like:

@>Change Items: [Bullet], -1
@> Conditional Branch: [Bullet] in inventory
    @>
  : Else
    @>Text: You are out of bullets
    @>Comment: Need to disable the skill or weapon here
    @>
  : Branch End
@>

I'll take a look at disabling the weapon or skill, that will most likely require some scripting.

Be Well
