Basic State Details of Awesome

Version: 1.01
Author: Leongon
Release: Jun 15 2010
Last Actualization: Jun 15 2010
Exclusive: at RPG RPG Revolution
Requires: Have at least one kitten strangling your left arm. Have your fingers almost frozen. Still not being helped after the Feb 2010 big Chilean earthquake.


Introduction
VX don't have state descriptions in the database, neither anywhere. So if you have states with specially strange effects with name and icon that are not really self-explanatory your player hardly will understand what it does.

This script adds a scrollable window in the Status Menu, that list the states with their icons, names and descriptions you set in the state's notebox. An optional in-battle list when you are targeting someone by pressin A button(Shift). Hidden descriptions, controllable via scripts or event script calls... say you have a "inspect" or "analyze" spell or something like that, you all want to uncover hidden state descriptions.




Features
- Set descriptions for your states in their notefields.
- Show states details in Status Menu for your actors, and optionally for enemies and party targets in battle.
- Window positions easily configurable.
- Show in-battle states description list with button A (shift) while targeting party members, or enemies.
- In battle list made for high compatibility.
- Ignore states to never be listed. Use this tag in the notebox:

CODE

<SD ignore>

- Set default hidden descriptions in the script, and control them through the game with event scripts call, or directly in other scripts:
Adding to hidden state's descriptions:

CODE

$SD_hide.push(ID)

Removing from hidden state's descriptions:

CODE

$SD_hide.delete(ID)

Being "ID" the state index number.


Further Instructions and configuration on script header.

Script
No more codeboxes, I hate them.

That kind of problem with the attached file looks like a system issue to me, maybe your browser. Nice you got it work.

[Thedarkdevotion]

I have provided a link to your script in a script that i wrote. I thought they went together nicely. My script can be found at:

Nice, I love it xD!

I hope this isn't considered necroing.
First of all, this script is awesome and exactly what I need, but here comes the but!
I'm using Tankentai SBS, and while it has nearly everything I want, it's severly lacking in the status display department.
Would it be possible to make these two compatible? Maybe there's a way to disable the status display used in Tankentai, so this one's used instead. At the moment there isn't even an error message, just doesn't use your script, works perfectly fine outside of battle though.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

That's quite different battle system than the original. To be honest, at this moment, I don't feel like start analyzing Tankentai to understand how it works.

You can try in the script requst section for another scripter to make it compatible for that battle scene.

Will do. Thanks for the reply.

Very nice script, again another simple and useful addition. easy to install and easy to set state definitions.
thanks : D

I'm having some issues with this script. I want to be able to have more than one line of text, since some of my states are pretty complicated. Also note box tags are being displayed in the descriptions screen.

The system as I made it is meant to be a single line for each state, but with some coding is easy to split into more lines.. try asking in the "request" section, since I'm answering questions yet, but not scripting anymore.

As for the notebox tags... hmmm... -thinks- if i remember correctly, I made this script to read the beggining of the notebox until it finds one "<" and I wrote that in the instructions of the script, in the script header itself. So if somehow the tags are appearing, is from a comflict with another custom script for sure.

[lohenien]

Ahh I think I figured out why the notes are appearing, I use brackets "[ ]" in my one script instead of "<>". As for the multi line part, ill ask in requests.
