Auto Battle

Version 1.2

Introduction

I made this little script a while ago and I forgot to post it.
It adds an Auto Battle command to the party command window and will make the whole party attack automatically.

Hope you like it!

Notes

The script requires my Custom Commands script.
And as always, don't forget to give me credit!

I've been using your script but there's something I'm wondering. It seems that you can only AutoBattle one turn, is there a way we can make it to where it will AutoBattle the entire battle?

[Dargor]

Why don't you simply choose the Auto command each time? I think it's pointless to Autobattle the whole battle, but if you desperately need it, I can do it.

 

[Innoccence]

Dunno, just wondering . I won't make you go through that, thanks though!

Interesting script, but just one thing... Wouldn't this script ruin the battles in most games if used, like allow the player to be lazy especially when fighting easy enemies?

Owell I guess some people may like that xD

It's great for grinding or making battles more enjoyable, IMO. I don't use this script but I do use TYPE-RX74's (or whatever his name is). That + implementing battle speed options = near instant battles for the win.

 

[Dargor]

I have updated the script. Innoccence will be happy!

I added auto-battle modes, available in Game_System. Simply set the value of @auto_battle_mode to 0 or 1.
- 0 means that the auto-battle will be effective for one turn. (Single Turn)
- 1 means that the auto-battle will be effective until the party or the opposing troop wins. (Whole Battle)

I've also added a cancellation feature. If the auto-battle mode is set to 1 and the player press SHIFT, the auto-battle will be turned off at the next turn.

Awesome! *Cheers For the Update*

Works like charm
