I need a state script

[busbuzz]

Hi , i was wondering of someone could make this script, i dont think its really hard, and maybe some1 alredy done it.

I need a script that make the state Confused to atack random targets, the common option is to atack only allies or only enemies, but not both...
So if any1 could help me making a script that change this to make the character that have this "state" to atack randomly an enemie or an ally.

In advance thx.. Buzz

You could do it with events, if no one is going to script this.

Make two identical status effects. Name them the same thing (or, just set their rating to 0 to keep them hidden).

Make one so they "always attack allies" and the other to "randomly attack enemies".

Then, have both of them call the same Common Event and use a variable to pick one of them at random.

@Conditional Branch: Player is Confused:
@Control Variable: Variable [0001] (for example) = Random (1...2)
@Conditional Branch: Variable [0001] = 1
...<>Change State: +(the one that attacks allies)
Else:
@Conditional Branch: Variable [0001] = 2
...<>Change State: +(the one that attacks enemies)

Make a duplicate for this for if the player is inflicted with your other "Confused" state.

Set both states to release at end of battle, etc. and make sure that each state removes the other state when it is inflicted.

You can also set it up to choose a random number 1 ~ 3 and, if Variable 0001] = 3, remove both states (person recovers). Set a larger range to reduce % chance of recovery.

but this would make a one on one atack, not random... its close but well... i guess ill wait for some1 to make it

That would be 'random' if it worked. 50% of the time you attack an ally, 50% of the time you attack an enemy.
The problem is... there is no "call common event" on a state.

You could use Rhaz' common event, add a line to remove the other state, and call the common event
every turn in the battle events page for each troop.

In 'Scene_Battle 4' , look for the method 'def make_basic_action_result'
Add the section surrounded by '###############'

      return
    end
  end

Change the '50' to the % odds that an enemy gets hit.
Change the '6' if your confuse state is not #6
Caveat: an actor can attack himself

It might be cool to use the 'restriction' to set a preference...
i.e. if it's 'attack enemy', use 75% chance of hitting enemy,
if 'attack ally', use 25% chace of hitting enemy.. ??

Be Well
