Help with modifing a script written for me here.

[Allogagan]

With the help of this forum I got a script for both RMXP and RMVX to change the scale of a sprite. The code was written to make things smaller but I learned how to modify it to also make things bigger. I was wondering how to combine the 2 into one script or something so I can do either one at any time in the 'game' I am working on.

Here is the script as its is normally written.

#==============================================================================
# ** Game_Character
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This class deals with characters. It's used as a superclass for the
#  Game_Player and Game_Event classes.
#==============================================================================

class Game_Character
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Alias Methods
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  alias_method :algn_shrinking_game_character_initialize, :initialize
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Public Instance Variables
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  attr_reader :shrinking
  attr_reader :growing
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Object Initialization
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def initialize
    algn_shrinking_game_character_initialize
    @shrinking = nil
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Shrinky Dink Mode On
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def shrink
    @shrinking = true
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Get Bigger Quicker
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def unshrink
    @shrinking = nil
  end
end

#==============================================================================
# ** Sprite_Character
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This sprite is used to display the character. It observes the Game_Character
#  class and automatically changes sprite conditions.
#==============================================================================

class Sprite_Character < RPG::Sprite
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Alias Methods
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  alias_method :algn_shrinking_sprite_character_update, :update
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Constant Variables
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  SHRINK_RATE = 0.02 # Translates to a percentage of a 100%
  SMALLEST_SIZE = 0.20 # The smallest percentage size the character can be.
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Frame Update
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def update
    algn_shrinking_sprite_character_update

    # If the character is shrinking.
    if @character.shrinking
      # Test to see if we should continue to shrink.
      if self.zoom_x > SMALLEST_SIZE
        self.zoom_x -= SHRINK_RATE
        self.zoom_y -= SHRINK_RATE
      else
        # Just in case the rate is uneven.
        self.zoom_x = SMALLEST_SIZE
        self.zoom_y = SMALLEST_SIZE
      end
    else
      # If we are still smaller than 1.0
      if self.zoom_x < 1.0
        self.zoom_x += SHRINK_RATE
        self.zoom_y += SHRINK_RATE
      else
        # Just in case the rate is uneven.
        self.zoom_x = 1.0
        self.zoom_y = 1.0
      end
    end
  end
end

I also know if you change the SMALLEST_SCALE to a number larger then 1.00 it makes the character larger. So as I said my question is how to have both a shrinking and giant code at the same time so I can either make a giant or a shrunk character in the same script.

Haha I wrote that. Ok you want to keep the shrinking code but add in giantizing(word?).

    @size_setting = size
  end
end

  SIZE_SETTINGS = 
  {
    0 => 0.2,     # Miniature size
    1 => 1.0,     # Normal size
    2 => 2.0      # Giant size
  }
  SIZE_RATE = 0.02 # Translates to a percentage of a 100 (Default 2%)
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Frame Update
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def update
    algn_shrinking_sprite_character_update

    case @character.size_setting
    when 0
      if self.zoom_x != SIZE_SETTINGS[0]
        if self.zoom_x > SIZE_SETTINGS[0]
          self.zoom_x -= SIZE_RATE
          self.zoom_y -= SIZE_RATE
        end
      end
    when 1
      if self.zoom_x != SIZE_SETTINGS[1]
        if self.zoom_x < SIZE_SETTINGS[1]
          self.zoom_x += SIZE_RATE
          self.zoom_y += SIZE_RATE
        elsif self.zoom_x > SIZE_SETTINGS[1]
          self.zoom_x -= SIZE_RATE
          self.zoom_y -= SIZE_RATE
        end
      end
    when 2
      if self.zoom_x != SIZE_SETTINGS[2]
        if self.zoom_x < SIZE_SETTINGS[2]
          self.zoom_x += SIZE_RATE
          self.zoom_y += SIZE_RATE
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Now the syntax goes like this:
0, 1, 2 are valid size numbers. (0 is mini mode, 1 is normal size, 2 is giant)

$game_player.size_setting = 1

yeah, thats why I posted here for the help. Thanx again.
