Is it possible to change EXP gaining into a formula?

[Keegzilla]

Ok, I have no idea if this goes here or in Script Request or in any of the forums, so don't get up me.

Now, I was just wondering if it was possible to change the way of gaining EXP by giving it a formula/method to work with instead of giving it a straight forward number.

For example, apparently in Pokemon, they have a formula for gaining EXP depending on various things.

Method: ((a*b)*L) / 7
a = 1 (+0.5 if Pokemon is traded or enemy is trainer)
b = The Base Experience the Pokemon has
L = The level of the Pokemon

So, if I was a newb who started his first battle versing a Lv.5 Bulbasaur with a Squirtle and I won, the result would be:

((1.5*64)*5)/7
(1.5*64) = 96
(96*5) = 480
480/7 = 68.5
68.5 = 68 (Always Rounds Down)

(a) is 1.5 because the opponent is a trainer
(b) is 64 because a Bulbasaur's Base EXP is 64
(L) is 5 obviously because it's level is 5

Is it possible to have something like this?
I'm also using Yanfly's Enemy Level Control script as well. Please do not get up me if it is really easy.

Hope someone can help me.

If you are asking for help making the script yourself, it goes here.
If you are asking for someone to do it for you, it goes in Script Requests.

a, b, L are all properties of the enemy, yes? (I've never poke'd a mon)

How do you intend to indicate if the enemy has been traded or is a trainer?
(Element, Text in name, other...)

From whence did you acquire Yanfly's script? a link would be cool.
It will be needed to get the enemies level.

Be Well

Well, I guess I would rather have help making it than requesting someone else to do it.

Yes, a b and L are all targeted at the opponent.

Also I don't want the traded in there (It was just an example.) but also wondering now if I could use a switch to determine if it is a trainer or something else?

Yanfly's script is here: http://www.rpgrevolution.com/forums/ind ... opic=31827

Hope this can help.

The simplest way I found to implement a custom xp table (generated by a formula or anything else), is to overwride the Game_Player.make_exp_list method, and filling the @exp_list property by whateve xp amountr you want, providing you don't go over the 9,999,999 limit.

Oooop !!!!

1/ It is the Game_Actor.make_exp_list; not the Game_Player

2/ If this is the xp allowance that needs to be dynamiclly computed, better look at and overwrite the the Game_Troop.exp_total method, gaining infos from the enemy variable in te loop

I'm not quite sure whaty you are saying but I'll give it a go when I am able to get back on my old computer.

The Game_Troop.exp_total is the method that returns the xp gained in a battle. In the standard version of RGSS, it simply loops into the defeated enemies and adds the xp of each one.
I f you want something more 'computerized', you have to rewrite this, adding your own formula. The problem is that the informations you need must be available. And in the standard RGSS, there is no equivalence of 'monster lvl', 'tainer', and 'monster tradinf'. You have to implement them yourself before using them.

Hope this helps

Sorry for the long reply, had no internet.

I just want to know how you write STR or AGI in script.

So could you put:
STR * SPI + DEF / SPD

But all for enemies?
