Instructions
Instructions are in the script.

FAQ
Awaiting question.

Compatibility
XP: I'm not sure if it's compatible with the SDK or any custom battle scripts. This script aliases Spriteset_Battle's initialize method.
VX: This script aliases Scene_Map's call_battle.

Credits and Thanks
XP/VX: JoeYoung requested something like this in HBGames.org's IRC channel.
VX: Decibel showing me how I could find the ID of the troop I'm battling. I decided to "cheat" by using instance_eval. I found a proper way.

Author's Notes
This script was requested by someone, I was interested, voila! :P

This looks great to me. If I'm not mistaken this is an old feature from RM2k or RM2k3 right? I remember missing it at the time and then never thinking about it.
