if [state is inflicted on actor[1] CONDITION

[ArcanaMagek]

And I keep asking help on these forums(HBGAMES ROCKS :fap: )
=> sorry it's because I'm script-active and I'm learning :p

SO ON TO BUSINESS...
How do you set the condition for:
if [state is inflicted on actor 1]

This is for in scripts NOT FOR EVENTING CONDITIONAL BRANCHES
Thx

if actor.states.include?(state_id)

Where actor is an Game_Actor. (so it can be $game_party.actors[actor index] or $game_actors[actor id])

E.g.:
$game_party.actors[0].states.include?(2)
"if actor at index 0 states include state ID 2"

Thank you very much. :biggrin:
It's always these small snippets that cause the problem :p

I don't know if I may post this here or in a new topic, but it's related with the same script so...
I'm making a simple little script which makes the player confused for real.
If you press left the character moves right, up => down, and so on...

problem is... when I press left the player moves left except when I hold left.
Heres my snippet:

Spoiler

class Game_Player
alias_method :confuse_walk_update, :update
def update
confuse_walk_update
last_moving = moving?
unless moving?
case Input.dir4
when 2
move_up
when 4
move_right
when 6
move_left
when 8
move_down
end
end
end
end

aliasing the game_player update method the way you did won't work since the original part of the code still being processed.

you could do something like this:

def update

  if $game_party.actors[0].states.include?(Confuse state ID)

   # an "new" update method, exactly like the orginial except by the directions.

  else

   # alias_update

  end

end

Sorry but I don't understand. What do you mean with:
# an "new" update method, exactly like the orginial except by the directions.

something like that:

class Game_Player < Game_Character

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  alias old_update_method update

  def update

    if $game_party.actors[0].states.include?(Confuse state ID)

      confused_update

    else

      old_update_method

    end

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def confused_update

    last_moving = moving?

    unless moving? or $game_system.map_interpreter.running? or

           @move_route_forcing or $game_temp.message_window_showing

      case Input.dir4

      when 2

        move_up

      when 4

        move_right

      when 6

        move_left

      when 8

        move_down

      end

    end

    last_real_x = @real_x

    last_real_y = @real_y

    super

    if @real_y > last_real_y and @real_y - $game_map.display_y > CENTER_Y

      $game_map.scroll_down(@real_y - last_real_y)

    end

    if @real_x < last_real_x and @real_x - $game_map.display_x < CENTER_X

      $game_map.scroll_left(last_real_x - @real_x)

    end

    if @real_x > last_real_x and @real_x - $game_map.display_x > CENTER_X

      $game_map.scroll_right(@real_x - last_real_x)

    end

    if @real_y < last_real_y and @real_y - $game_map.display_y < CENTER_Y

      $game_map.scroll_up(last_real_y - @real_y)

    end

    unless moving?

      if last_moving

        result = check_event_trigger_here([1,2])

        if result == false

          unless $DEBUG and Input.press?(Input::CTRL)

            @encounter_count -= 1 if @encounter_count > 0

          end

        end

      end

      if Input.trigger?(Input::C)

        check_event_trigger_here([0])

        check_event_trigger_there([0,1,2])

      end

    end

  end

end

 

as you can see the method "confused_update" are almost identical to the original update method, except by this part:

 

      case Input.dir4

      when 2

        move_up

      when 4

        move_right

      when 6

        move_left

      when 8

        move_down

      end

    end

Sorry if I'm just stupid but it gives me an error with "super" meaning no superclass method 'confused_update'. (which I don't get because there IS a superclass...)
Can you help me once more :smile:

 

[Atoa]

Yeah i forgot about the super, so do this:

class Game_Player < Game_Character

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  alias old_update_method update

  def update

    if $game_party.actors[0].states.include?(Confuse state ID)

    last_moving = moving?

    unless moving? or $game_system.map_interpreter.running? or

           @move_route_forcing or $game_temp.message_window_showing

      case Input.dir4

      when 2

        move_up

      when 4

        move_right

      when 6

        move_left

      when 8

        move_down

      end

    end

    last_real_x = @real_x

    last_real_y = @real_y

    super

    if @real_y > last_real_y and @real_y - $game_map.display_y > CENTER_Y

      $game_map.scroll_down(@real_y - last_real_y)

    end

    if @real_x < last_real_x and @real_x - $game_map.display_x < CENTER_X

      $game_map.scroll_left(last_real_x - @real_x)

    end

    if @real_x > last_real_x and @real_x - $game_map.display_x > CENTER_X

      $game_map.scroll_right(@real_x - last_real_x)

    end

    if @real_y < last_real_y and @real_y - $game_map.display_y < CENTER_Y

      $game_map.scroll_up(last_real_y - @real_y)

    end

    unless moving?

      if last_moving

        result = check_event_trigger_here([1,2])

        if result == false

          unless $DEBUG and Input.press?(Input::CTRL)

            @encounter_count -= 1 if @encounter_count > 0

          end

        end

      end

      if Input.trigger?(Input::C)

        check_event_trigger_here([0])

        check_event_trigger_there([0,1,2])

      end

    end

    else

      old_update_method

    end

  end

end

Works perfectly thx
