[Resolved] Problem Displaying New Element Resistance

[Culex]

In Window_Base, I have created a definition called 'draw_actor_resistance.'

For now, its sole purpose is to display the value of the character's resistance to a certain element, based on the table in Game_Actor:

table = [0,200,150,100,50,0,-100]

But it's not working. Here is the error I get.

Script 'Window_Base' line 333: NoMethodError occured.
undefined method 'element_rate' for nil:NilClass

Here is the script I am currently working in Window_Base, where the error occurs:

def draw_actor_resistance(actor, x, y, element)
    case element
    when 0
      element_resist = $game_actor.element_rate(0)
    end
    self.contents.font.color = normal_color
    self.contents.draw_text(x, y, 36, 32, element_resist.to_s, 2)
end

Here is the part of class Game_Actor where I get ".element_rate" from:

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Get Element Revision Value
#     element_id : element ID
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
  def element_rate(element_id)
    # Get values corresponding to element effectiveness
    table = [0,200,150,100,50,0,-100]
    result = table[$data_classes[@class_id].element_ranks[element_id]]
    # If this element is protected by armor, then it's reduced by half
    for i in [@armor1_id, @armor2_id, @armor3_id, @armor4_id]
      armor = $data_armors[i]
      if armor != nil and armor.guard_element_set.include?(element_id)
        result /= 2
      end
    end
    # If this element is protected by states, then it's reduced by half
    for i in @states
      if $data_states[i].guard_element_set.include?(element_id)
        result /= 2
      end
    end
    # End Method
    return result
  end

If my method is undefined, how will I define the actor's rate of elemental resistance based on the table in Game_Actor? If this doesn't make sense, I will try to clarify my problem further. Thank you in advance.

You can't put;

$game_actor.element_rate(0)

$game_actor is an array. But i see u have "actor" so use that

actor.element_rate(0)

Besides, it's $game_actors. You missed the "s" :D

Huzzah! To think a simple typo halted my success! I modified it from there to draw a shield if the character's resistance is less than or equal to 50 in the database. At last, I can rest...for a while. Thank you, Mr. Mo!
