[XP] Blizz-ABS

[Makasu]

While I hate to have to compare to XAS

# Definição do Som quando o herói receber dano
  HERO_HIT_SE = RPG::AudioFile.new("Mana - Duran_Hit", 100, 100)

I mean something like this.  A sound effect that you can define within the script to play when the player or event. is hit. I don't know it could be like an addon of sorts. Because I mean you're able to set up animations through the database. I know this. But say like you have it hitting an enemy. A dog wouldn't make the same sound effect as a zombie if it were being hit.

it could be like

def self.hit(id)
      case id
      when 1 then return ("Mana - Duran_Hit", 100, 100) # Zombie monster
      when 2 then return ("Mana - Duran_Hit", 100, 100) # Dog monster

Of course thats not a real thing but y'know what I'm saying hopefully?

[Blizzard]

I'm simply not going to implement it. It's so simple to make that it takes 5 minutes to do. When I do it and add it to Blizz-ABS, I will need 30-60 minutes since I have to add it to the manual, explain how to configure it manually and add it in the config app. No.

[Makasu]

Okay. It was just a suggestion. Thank you though.

Hello, this script works great. Except I am having one problem. I have one ally in my party, with Caterpillar turned on. When I enter combat the following error message occurs

Undefined method '[]' for nil:NilClass

The line is 1667, which is this:

        if summon[0] == SUMMONNone || summon[1] == 0 || summon[2] == 0

What causes this error? Thank you.

[tSwitch]

Makasu, just have someone make it a plugin

@NAMK: Do you think you can put a list together of the features you need? If I add everything that was asked for and fix every reported bug, you won't see 2.24 for another month due my lack of time.

just respawn points that are deleted when erased/renamed.
then Anima can pretty much be finished.

Looks to me that you are either using an older version or you haven't regenerated the configuration script (part 1) with the config app after updating the script.

I am using V2.2.3. Combat works fine if I only have one actor in the party, but the error seems to happen at random only when I have an ally in the party that is attacking the enemies. I have A_ACTION_SPRITES  and A_WEAPON_SPRITES on, other than that the settings are default, with no other scripts other than Blizz-ABS v2.2.3 running. Here is my current Configuration:

Have you removed the default values for self.trap and self.summon or what?

    def self.trap(id)
      case id
      when 92 then return 40
      end
    end
    
    def self.summon(id)
      case id
      when 93 then return [false, 3, 200]
      end
    end

There is no default return value defined. O_o

[Landith]

Blizz, have you fixed the tileset event problem?
It's the one were if you select the tileset graphic in an event it only shows like a few pixels of it, actually a line of pixels.
If you need a screenshot I'll post one.

I need it for the section in Blizz-ABS Tutorial about making puzzles with BABS.
Of course I could also make it in a character set. But I would rather show people with the tileset graphic for convenience on their part.

[Blizzard]

Not yet. Due to popular demand I'll probably see if I can put together v2.24 or even 2.3 over the weekend.

[lTritonl]

Thanks Blizzard, the Undefined method problem is fixed. Except now I have another problem, I am getting a RGSS disposed sprite error on line 5936, which is this:

        if dmg[0].opacity == 0

it happens when I go into the menu when there are multiple attack animations and damage animations showing at one time. Any idea how to correct this? Thank you in advance.

[Blizzard]

Actually this can't be happening. The piece of code right after that prevents that kind of error. I'm sorry, I don't know what could have gone wrong since it doesn't make any sense at all. If you want, you can upload a demo which demonstrates the problem and I can take a look at it.

[Shadonking]

i cant get respawn point to work, iv name it correctly like in the manual but it just does nothing and lets the enemies stay dead.

here is what i put

\respawn[35] \time[2]

[Blizzard]

It works fine for me in Star G. Are you using v2.23? I think I fixed it there.

[Shadonking]

yeah im using 2.23, every thing else seems to work but enemies wont respawn.

i'll try redownloading the current version and replace what i have. i'll tell you what happens in a while

[Makasu]

It actually doesn't work for me either. And I even tried using the respawn point bug fix found in Star G. I had forgotten all about that.

[Blizzard]

Ah, so I put a fix in there. Alright, I'll remember fixing it in the official release.

[tSwitch]

i cant get respawn point to work, iv name it correctly like in the manual but it just does nothing and lets the enemies stay dead.

here is what i put

\respawn[35] \time[2]

it works fine for me in 2.21...

[Shadonking]

iv used the bug fix in star G and it works now

[lTritonl]

I regenerated my Config file and undefined method '+' didn't come up since. Weird stuff =/

However, I'm having another problem now. It only happens when I have a summoned pet fighting alongside me and magic attacks are flying back and forth, it seems to happen at random. I have the Enemy AI set to Full power

undefined method '*' for nil:NilClass

This is the line where the errors occuring:

      when 8 then Rect.new(ch.real_x/4+8, ch.real_y/4+16-d*32, 16, d*32)

and this is the method:

    #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    # get_projectile_area
    #  ch - map character
    #  d  - distance
    #  Returns area data for the given character and range for projectiles.
    #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
