Need help from someone who uses Cogwheel's latest RTAB script <Rather Urgent>

After hours of searching the web, I finally managed to find Cogwheel's RTAB script, the perfect combat script :D There's only one problem: Whenever I attack in the battle the game crashes with the message:
"Script: 'RTAB' line 1538: Argument Error occurred. Wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)"

Okay. Having no idea what that means, since i have absolutely zero coding experience, I go to the scripting editor and find line 1538; Here it is:

    update_phase4_step4(battler)

Here's where I found it

Ugh... it turns out the script isn't compatable with Mog's custom HUD/Menu system... but there is no WAY I can give that up!! But at the same time I don't want to give this combat script up either :( Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
 
Um, I recognize that error.  You're using Animated Battlers along with RTAB.  But that must be a pretty OLD copy of Animated Battlers.  Try updating to Animated Battlers v 10.5.

The problem was that it did not autodetect a system called 'Connected Attacking' and I didn't have a method to autodetect the script.  I needed to create a 'switch' that you would have to enable/disable the feature.

The new versions autodetect 'Connected Attacking' and doesn't have that error anymore.

As to Mog menus... sorry pal.  They're visually great, but not compatibility-friendly.
 
Er... I'm not using Animated Battlers, I don't like using the side view sprites :/ But, if there really is no other solution... I'm going to have to get rid of Mogs Menu I suppose *tear*... but... it'll be really hard, it just looks so pretty. Well I guess at least now it means I can use the Multi-Equip script, Actor Customization, and all that. If I really have to get rid of Mogs, could you recommend a decent alternative?

EDIT: Everything seems to be working now... I just had to restart the project and copy and paste all the scripts from scratch... I duno what the hell was going on, but it just started crashing no matter what I did... anyway it all seems good now :/
