menu and skills

[Desbrina]

I have most of my script made now, the only problem when i use a skill through the menu

I have it set up so that a variable is increased by 1 when the skill is used, but i only want that to happen in a battle, at the moment it also happens in the menu.

The modification i have is in game_battler 3

under

      # Substract damage from HP
      last_hp = self.hp
      self.hp -= self.damage
      effective |= self.hp != last_hp

i have

      if user.is_a?(Game_Actor) and skill.id == 1
        $game_variables[9] += 1
      end

I dont want to stop the skill from being used in the menu, just stop the variable being added to
