# With X being the actor id number and Y beeing the luck value.
# It's worth noting you can have unlucky characters by assign a negative value

Instructions

As long as you've defined the actor's luck around line 64, put this above main, below the default scripts, and it should work fine.

Compatibility

Probably incompatible with SDK and most other Battle Systems, I rewrite too many methods.

[Tax]

Tax
Authors: Falcon
Version: 2.0
Type: Shop Add-on
Key Term: Custom Shop System

Introduction

This Script allows the user to add a sales tax to items that are sold in a shop.
In addition, the user may use negative taxes, for discount shops.
The user can easily change the tax rate using call script.


Features

• Change the tax rate to anything you want. (Even negative for discounts!)

Instructions

Place this above main, below everything else and it should work fine
To use the sales tax:
call script:
$game_system.tax = TAXRATE


Compatibility

Should work with all custom shop systems, however the window that displays the tax/discount rate will probably not appear.

[Tutorial One: The Shop]

Reading this, I am assuming you know the basics of mapping, if you don't then other tutorials may help you.

Tutorial One: The Shop
Well, instead of doing a house (there are other tutorials for that) I'm going to show you how to make a shop.

Step One

Alright, to start lets fill the first layer with a wood flooring.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Two

Next, lets use the wall autotile to make the outline of the building.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Three

Now, let's make rooms. Let's make half of the shop a weapon shop, and the other half an item shop.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Four

Alright, now it's time to add some walls, go to the first layer and add the walls.
Tip: Use layers effectively, if something can go on the first layer, put it on the first layer, this opens a lot more possibilities for your map

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Five

Lets now add counters for the shopkeepers to be behind.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Six

Okay, now we need to add some objects, let's add a table and a shelf in the item shop, and lets put some weapons behind the counter of the weapon/armor shop. Let's also put some boxes and other things in the item shop, and let's plan on making a row of armor in the weapon/armor shop.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Seven

Hold on though, we can't make a row of armor, we only have three layers, and only two would work! And two armors isn't really a row.
Wrong!
To make a row of armor, put half of the armor on the second layer, and the other half on the top layer. This will allow you to make an row of armor

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Eight

Tip: Never leave too much empty space on a map
Let's add some things to that wall in the middle of the shop.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Nine

Alright, now we need to put some more items in the shop, and we should put items on the table.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Step Ten: The Final Step!

Now that the mapping is done, we need to do one more thing, add shopkeepers and other events!
Tip: The eventing layer is your "fourth" layer. The eventing layer can be used as a fourth layer, in addition, people are part of the map as much as a table is. Remember, your hero isn't the only one in the inn or in the shop!

Spoiler: ShowHide

The final product!

A very nice map, would look good in a large forest town

Spoiler: ShowHide

Now, here's a view of all the layers.

[Experience Boosting Potions]

Experience Boosting Potions
Authors: Falcon
Version: 1.0
Type: Misc
Key Term: Misc Add-on

Introduction

An actor uses a potion, then the potion increases the exp gained.

Features

• Determine how much exp is boosted and for how many battles.
  

Demo

Script

Spoiler: ShowHide

Paste this above main:

#==============================================================================
# Experience Boosting Potions
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# By The_Falcon
# Requested by doodley at rmrk.net
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This script should only be found at the following places:
# rmrk.net
# rmrevolution.rmrk.net
# rmxp.org
# chaos-project.com
#==============================================================================
class Game_System
  attr_accessor   :experience_boost      # how much the exp increases
  attr_accessor   :exp_boost_turns       # how many battles the boost will last
  # Alias the initialize method
  alias exp_boost_initialize initialize
  def initialize
    # Use the old method
    exp_boost_initialize
    # Set both new variables
    @experience_boost = 0.0
    @exp_boost_turns = 0
  end
end

Now, replace this in Scene_Battle 2:

    # Obtaining EXP
    for i in 0...$game_party.actors.size
      actor = $game_party.actors[i]
      if actor.cant_get_exp? == false
        last_level = actor.level
        actor.exp += exp
        if actor.level > last_level
          @status_window.level_up(i)
        end
      end
    end

With this:

    #-----------------------------------------
    # Experience Potion Additions
    #-----------------------------------------
    if $game_system.exp_boost_turns > 0
      exp += Integer(exp * $game_system.experience_boost)
      exp.round
      $game_system.exp_boost_turns -= 1
    end
    # Obtaining EXP
    for i in 0...$game_party.actors.size
      actor = $game_party.actors[i]
      if actor.cant_get_exp? == false
        last_level = actor.level
        actor.exp += exp
        if actor.level > last_level
          @status_window.level_up(i)
        end
      end
    end

Then make common events which the experience potions call. The common events should have the following:

$game_system.experience_boost = X
$game_system.exp_boost_turns = Y

Instructions

In the script section.

Compatibility

Probably won't work with other battle systems.

[Power Word: Shield Status Effect]

Power Word: Shield Status Effect
Authors: Falcon
Version: 1.0
Type: Status Effect
Key Term: Misc Add-on

Introduction

This script allows you to use the Power Word: Shield status. For those of you who never played WoW, the shield absorbs some damage before it goes away.

Features

• Absorb Damage, including poisons.
  
• Configure how much damage you want the shield to absorb.
  

Screenshots

Imagine the actor has a status effect called power word shield. Now imagine he takes no damage.

Instructions

Add the script under the SDK. Then you'll need to make a new state and change the PWS_ID in the script to the ID of the effect. Then make the skills and whatnot so you can use the new effect

Also, keep in mind, the shield is NOT meant to be dispelled, so any dispel effects will probably screw the system up a bit.

Compatibility

Tried to make this SDK Compliant and Compatible.

Plot

Twenty-six years after a war that raged across the continent and pitted the Elves against Humanity, many citizens in the Republic of Soth still live in squalor. Adding to the chaos of the situation, small bands of mercenary gangs, called 'families', have risen up who are willing to take any jobs, including illegal ones, for money. In the Ezra Family, Dane and Tyrius are sent on a routine collection mission. Upon their return however, they find the headquarters of the Ezra Family being ransacked by the police and their comrades slain or arrested. Now fugitives, Dane and Tyrius embark on their journey.

Races

Humans - Humans have been around for about a century, and were originally enslaved by elves alongside Cin'dor to work as slaves. As a result, the two races share a great bond, and they have fought together in every battle. Humans became the dominant race after the discovery of the mana plague.

Elves - The elves ruled unchallenged as the dominant race for most of the world's history, but the war changed that. The elves have always considered themselves superior to all other races because of their strong magic affinity. Ultimately, this promoted a false sense of security and thus they were not prepared when the humans developed alchemy.

Half Elves - Half elves are of course, the result of a union between a human and an elf. Only Aleria has no problem with the half elves, most other nations despise them.

Cin'dor - The Cin'dor were originally created by magic; the elves intended them to be the perfect slaves, with more strength than humans. However, the Cin'dor broke free with the humans, and went on to develop basic alchemy.

Characters

Tyrius Sanen
Age: 16
Class: Thief

A human whose father is a drug-addict, Tyrius turned to thievery at an early age. He was adopted into a local mercenary guild and often takes on the seedier jobs for which the guild is hired. Though his bluntness and crassness often put off those he meets, he is respected within the guild for the agility and speed that he has due to his use of alchemy.


Dane
Age: 7
Class: Berserker

A half-Cin'dor child, the physical maturity that comes from his Cin'dor heritage far outpaces his emotional maturity. Harbouring an obscene devotion to his mother, he works in the Mercenary guild in order to support his sick mother. Due to his fierce appearance and his strength, he is most often used as an enforcer on missions.

Factions

Human Factions

Doren - While the nation of Doren has existed for little over a half century; they only recently gained power. Doren is undoubtedly the most powerful nation, gaining a large amount of terrirtory after the War for Emancipation. After releasing the mana plague, few mages dare to stand up the might of Doren.

Republic of Soth - A small nation that joined forces with Doren to fight in the war. After the war, Soth doubled its land, but the leaders believed they deserved much more.

Aleria - A large trading empire, Aleria did not play a large role in the war; but they did cease trade with the Elven nations, causing a large financial headache for Amyir.

Cin'dor Isles - While not Human, the Cin'dor have fought with the humans, and the two races are always in political agreement. Nearly 80% of the Cin'dor population live on these small islands.

Elven Factions

Amyir - Before the war, Amyir was the world leader. However, they doubted the power of alchemy, and they paid dearly for their overconfidence. Refusing to surrender to the humans, most of the population dissapeared into the desert sands.

Ilina - The first nation the released their slaves, Ilina was the tragic victim of the war. Reluctant to enter the war, only Amyir's threats caused their army to mobilize. Ilina lost about 75% of its land, and is now the weakest nation.
