    # Apply troop data

    for j in 0...troop.members.size

      enemy = $data_enemies[troop.members[j].enemy_id]

      if enemy != nil

        @enemies.push(Game_Enemy.new(troop_id, j))

      end

    end    

  end

end

I get an error when trying to attack.
Line 4017 NoMethodError occurred.
Undefined method 'dmg_mirror=' for nilClass

I think it has something to do with the indices of the enemies.

I am not using the SDK. These are the only two conflicting scripts.

If someone has any specific questions, please ask.

Try past it bellow the battle scripts.

I tested it here and get no erros.

It's under everything. It won't give an error unless your fighting a random monster group, regular groups are fine. Should I make a demo?
Also, another issue is that sometimes the enemies stack.

Edit:
Note this is the demo with no changes at all. No additional scripts. While taking these screenshots, I encountered the error again, it seems that the error only happens SOMETIMES.

Spoiler

Here is the enemy stacking.

Spoiler

Here is the cursor pointing at the wrong enemy.

Spoiler

And the cursor pointing at nothing.

Spoiler

Is it just me getting these weird glitches???

I have 3 monsters there. Flan, Hell Demon, and Ghost. I named it 133. They are randomized, but they will stack on top of each other if there's more than one of the same thing and the cursor will point to the wrong person or even an empty area while the help window says the correct name of the person targetted.

 

[Atoa]

The stacking is caused by the fact that you didn't set the right postion for enemies.
You must change the enemies graphics to the enemy position model.

I didn't get the damage mirror error any time, maybe it's because i'm using an updated version (wich i will relase soon).

And I dunno what can be causing the cursor glitch. Let's see if thats occur with the next version.

 

[Yin]

I did set the right positions. Here's a screenshot of the editor with the postion models in for the phantom, hell demon, and the flan.

The damage mirror error only happens sometimes, so I can't really pinpoint the source. As for the cursor, I think that's an issue with the indices.
I will wait for the updated version and try it again.
