Side View - Magic Attack

Hi, I'm having problems with this magic attack not working the way I want it to. I'm using the newest translation of the Side View Battle System, and the character always jumps out and hits them three times (without the specified animation)... Well, it's a magic attack so I want him to stand where he is, and not attack 3 times...

I haven't used the Side View Battle System before, please tell me if there's anything different about attacks.
 
It could possibly be that you have the 'Physical Attack' dialog checked. Fire would not be a physical attack, as physical means weapon or fist...That might be what is telling the SVBS to make the character move.
 
I've made the changes to the script that it says to do in the FAQ:

First of all, find these sequences in the script:
Code:
  "SKILL_USE"    => ["BEFORE_MOVE","WAIT(FIXED)","START_MAGIC_ANIM",

                             "WPN_SWING_UNDER","WPN_RAISED","WPN_SWING_V",

                             "OBJ_ANIM_WEIGHT","Can Collapse","24","COORD_RESET"],

                            

     "SKILL_ALL"=> ["BEFORE_MOVE","START_MAGIC_ANIM","WPN_SWING_UNDER","WPN_RAISED",

                             "Process Skill","WPN_SWING_V","OBJ_ANIM","24",

                             "Process Skill End","Can Collapse","COORD_RESET"],
REPLACE those with these following changes:

Code:
  "SKILL_USE"    => ["BEFORE_MOVE","WAIT(FIXED)","START_MAGIC_ANIM", "35",

                             "OBJ_ANIM_WEIGHT","Can Collapse","24","COORD_RESET"],

                            

     "SKILL_ALL"=> ["BEFORE_MOVE","START_MAGIC_ANIM", "35",

                             "Process Skill","OBJ_ANIM","24",

                             "Process Skill End","Can Collapse","COORD_RESET"],

Now it doesn't have that annoying big weapon swing, but the character still jumps up and hits the enemy 3 times... I have a feeling I need to do something to the script...
 
You have the Triple Attack Addon installed which is for the skill that was located in ID 3 (Triple Attack).  All the fix addons are for the default skills that were there.

What you need to do is remove Dual Attack, Double Attack and Triple Attack addons or create your skills starting at ID 4.

Remember that skill IDs 84~104 are also reserved for the skills from the demo.
