I know that we have the \nodmg for events but I was wondering how I can disable the damage numbers for the player. Not just the damage numbers but also the "defend" message when you defend.
In Part 2 of BABS, around line 5000 is the method
def request_damage_sprite. You see the logic at the start is
def request_damage_sprite(char, damage = nil)
# stop if no damage sprites flag
return if char.no_dmg_sprites
You can add your own logic right above that line. If you don't want it to show at all for the entirety of the game, you can just leave it as
return. But if you want to control it with some switch being turned on, that'd look something like
def request_damage_sprite(char, damage = nil)
return if $game_switches[1]
# stop if no damage sprites flag
return if char.no_dmg_sprites
replacing the ID accordingly.
Note that this affects all battlers. If you're specifically targeting only the player, then do
def request_damage_sprite(char, damage = nil)
return if char.is_a?(Game_Player) && $game_switches[1]
# stop if no damage sprites flag
return if char.no_dmg_sprites
