Nice, thanks for sharing this. So to confirm the Escape ratio, I could potentially have it set to 100 # out of 100 if I want a person to escape each time. If so, thanks for that, I've been wanting something like that since it makes no sense to me to force a battle if the player doesn't want to fight, assuming escaping is an option.

[diamondandplatin...]

Yep if you set it to 100, the player can escape every battle without fail; provided the player CAN actually escape from battle in the first place though.

[amerk]

Then like I said, awesome. It's the one thing I've always hated, being caught in the middle of a dungeon with no way to save, and having to head off to school or work or wherever, and having to crawl back out of the dungeon in a hurry, but getting hit by random encounters with no means of assured escape.

This may make randome encounters a bit more enjoyable for the casual gamer.

[hainkiwanki]

I see that you've put all your scripts in one topic and I like them all Great job

[diamondandplatin...]

Not quite all of them, just the smaller ones But thank you.

[amerk]

Small snippets are always fun. Back in the glory days of VX, there were a lot of these. I tend to enjoy the small snippets more so than the large codes since they generally add small flavor to a game without overcomplicating things.
