For the past couple of months I've been learning RGSS and I've got the basic stuff down such windows, variables, conditional statements, ect. But, I can't see myself making big scripts such as a jumping system or a side view battle system. I was wondering how you learned to script because I really want to know how to script really well.
Thanks in advance.
Hey there,
Well I don't make battle neither though I can still teach you some things :)... The way I've learned to script is by reading other scripts for the most part. I've allways been interested in other peoples work but this time I though I had to try to make something myself...and it worked!! The most importand thing when you go scripting is (at least in my case) that you want to make something to help an other wich can't script. You also need to feel the competition that's around in the scripting-community. Cause, I have to say, if you get pushed to get a sertain request done before an other scripter does, you feel POWERFULL!! :P So that's an other thing... You also don't need to be afraid to learn from others or helpfiles. When I write my scripts, I actualy always have the helpfiles open to look things up I don't know or remember. Then, you must be calm, cause you need to try the script a lot of times. When I write a script, I test it after almost every changes. First I set up the major structure. Like when I make a window-script or part of a script I start with something like this:
CODE
class Window_Name < Window_Base def initialize(x,y,width,height) super(x,y,width,height) refresh end
def refresh self.contents.clear draw_contents end
def draw_contents draw_something(with, some, parameters) end
def update refresh if @something != @what_it_should_be end end
So that's also very important. Then, the biggest thing I learned scripting from is TRIAL AND ERROR. That's the most irritating way to learn something, cause it's more ERROR than TRIAL, but it does the trick realy good.
So that's it how I did it. Now it's up to you. Do some requests (if I didn't do it allready :P) and learn from them.
Hope that helped you out a little. If not, keep your eye on the Scriptology-topic (see my sig) where I'll be updating for my scripting(video)tutorials. Perhaps they're going to be usefull for you one day ;)

is there a way to remove the command from the menu list? I would like this to be called via script. I'm currently using the Materia System by Atoa and there is no way to disable it from the menu list, so I'm having a conflict with menu options.
Edit:
Modified the script to not show up in the menu, and am able to call the script via event, item, or common event, thanks anyway

Hello!
I was thinking about doing the same thing! Found how to modify the deafault setting in the script but not how to call it, would you mind sharing how you did it?

Sure thing
To remove the option from the menu, look for these lines of code
CODE
# Add's an option to the menu class Scene_Menu < Scene_Base def create_command_window s1 = Vocab::item s2 = Vocab::skill s3 = Vocab::equip s4 = Vocab::status s5 = SojaBird_Factions::You_Name_It s6 = Vocab::save s7 = Vocab::game_end @command_window = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6, s7]) @command_window.index = @menu_index if $game_party.members.size == 0 # If number of party members is 0 @command_window.draw_item(0, false) # Disable item @command_window.draw_item(1, false) # Disable skill @command_window.draw_item(2, false) # Disable equipment @command_window.draw_item(3, false) # Disable status end if $game_system.save_disabled # If save is forbidden @command_window.draw_item(4, false) # Disable save end end
def update_command_selection if Input.trigger?(Input:: Sound.play_cancel $scene = Scene_Map.new elsif Input.trigger?(Input::C) if $game_party.members.size == 0 and @command_window.index < 4 Sound.play_buzzer return elsif $game_system.save_disabled and @command_window.index == 4 Sound.play_buzzer return end Sound.play_decision case @command_window.index when 0; $scene = Scene_Item.new # Item when 1,2,3; start_actor_selection # Skill, equipment, status when 4; $scene = Scene_Factions.new # Factions Menu when 5; $scene = Scene_File.new(true, false, false) # Save when 6; $scene = Scene_End.new # End Game end end end end
and change it to
CODE
# Add's an option to the menu =begin class Scene_Menu < Scene_Base def create_command_window s1 = Vocab::item s2 = Vocab::skill s3 = Vocab::equip s4 = Vocab::status s5 = SojaBird_Factions::You_Name_It s6 = Vocab::save s7 = Vocab::game_end @command_window = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6, s7]) @command_window.index = @menu_index if $game_party.members.size == 0 # If number of party members is 0 @command_window.draw_item(0, false) # Disable item @command_window.draw_item(1, false) # Disable skill @command_window.draw_item(2, false) # Disable equipment @command_window.draw_item(3, false) # Disable status end if $game_system.save_disabled # If save is forbidden @command_window.draw_item(4, false) # Disable save end end
def update_command_selection if Input.trigger?(Input:: Sound.play_cancel $scene = Scene_Map.new elsif Input.trigger?(Input::C) if $game_party.members.size == 0 and @command_window.index < 4 Sound.play_buzzer return elsif $game_system.save_disabled and @command_window.index == 4 Sound.play_buzzer return end Sound.play_decision case @command_window.index when 0; $scene = Scene_Item.new # Item when 1,2,3; start_actor_selection # Skill, equipment, status when 4; $scene = Scene_Factions.new # Factions Menu when 5; $scene = Scene_File.new(true, false, false) # Save when 6; $scene = Scene_End.new # End Game end end end end =end
Next, to call the script from a common event or event, simply select the script option for events and insert
CODE
$scene = Scene_Factions.new
This will call the script from an item, event, or common event.

Pim, that's an awesome work, so nicely done! Anyway, how do I remove the starting factions? I want to get rid of the Necromancers and the Mages guilds you put in the script...
__________________________
Is it not natural ugliness better than artificial beauty?
@Edboy Make sure you read the script info and all. Check the module and there you'll find the start-faction part. You could just remove that part or change it with your starting factions
@zimonk Hehe yea Well that's actualy also how I started with my idear
Greatzz, SojaBird.
Pls give me some more features to put in this script

Strategists are quiet people who like to get to the heart of tough problems on their own and come up with innovative solutions. They analyse situations with a sceptical eye and develop ways of measuring everything, including themselves.
Strategists are the group most likely to say they are unhappy in their job, according to a UK survey.
Strategists are generally easy-going. They are intellectually curious and enjoy abstract ideas. Sometimes they like thinking of a solution to a problem more than taking practical steps to solve it.
In situations where they can't use their talents, are unappreciated, or not taken seriously, Strategists may become negatively critical or sarcastic. Under extreme stress, Strategists could be prone to inappropriate, tearful or angry outbursts.
Strategists may be insensitive to the emotional needs of others or how their behaviour impacts the people around them.

Thanks, everything is fine now. Here's an idea: subcategories. A different one for guilds and places, for example.
By the way, I can't add any values. For example, there's a dialogue going on and after making choice X, reputation should increase. Call script and then type add_faction_value("etum", 10), but still nothing
__________________________
Is it not natural ugliness better than artificial beauty?
I think I like the idear...though I'm not sure what you meen with places?
For the problem that you get...stranges! Make sure the faction is added to your list, also keep the CASE and all the same as the name of the guild in your list, cause it's very sensitive.
Let me know if it's still not working or so...cause it's odd

You also don't need to be afraid to learn from others or helpfiles. When I write my scripts, I actualy always have the helpfiles open to look things up I don't know or remember. Then, you must be calm, cause you need to try the script a lot of times. When I write a script, I test it after almost every changes. First I set up the major structure. Like when I make a window-script or part of a script I start with something like this:
CODE
class Window_Name < Window_Base def initialize(x,y,width,height) super(x,y,width,height) refresh end
def refresh self.contents.clear draw_contents end
def draw_contents draw_something(with, some, parameters) end
def update refresh if @something != @what_it_should_be end end
So that's also very important. Then, the biggest thing I learned scripting from is TRIAL AND ERROR. That's the most irritating way to learn something, cause it's more ERROR than TRIAL, but it does the trick realy good.
So that's it how I did it. Now it's up to you. Do some requests (if I didn't do it allready :P) and learn from them.
Hope that helped you out a little. If not, keep your eye on the Scriptology-topic (see my sig) where I'll be updating for my scripting(video)tutorials. Perhaps they're going to be usefull for you one day ;)
