nope, sorry... the new formula didn't work! (no image in any entry, anymore) Is there anywhere else we should change 'index' to 'item', or something like that?
And for the second thing, yeah, it would just be once in a while, but not a 'one-time' thing, possible for particular quests, where (based on in-game variables and the player's choices) the reward offered is more, or less.
it would always be an 'if' and 'else if' statement with each coded possibilities for the reward (ex: 250, 500 and 750), the only problem i have is the idea of how it could affect that formula on an individual basis.
ex:
if $game_variables[60] == 250
#display quest_overlay_41a.png
else if $game_variables[60] == 500
#display quest_overlay_41b.png
else if $game_variables[60] == 750
#display quest_overlay_41c.png
end
end
end
