[ASCIIgod]

Description 1: simply implies what zelda has. use a potion and get an empty bottle
Decription 2: this script(let) helps you make item that changes or perhaps i could say, swapped upon being consumed. this eliminates the tedious work on the old fashioned common event swaps.

# this script(let) allows you to have an item that swaps or pherhaps i should #
# say, changes upon consming. This script(let) has a little equallity to the #
# system the zelda games uses. like for example, link got a bottle that has #
# nothing in it. so we buy a potion or pherhaps caught a fairy. instead of #
# using the tradfitional and tedios 'common event' i cam up a solution. #
# so instead of the item disappearing it will rather evolve to a new one. like #
# drinking a bottle of potion, instead of throwing away the bottle the heroes #
# can recycle it to reduce waste but thats out of the scripts capabilities ^V^ #

# note that i did it under a default clean project so it might not compatible #
# with scripts that changes the scene_item itself like the grid inventory from #
# modern algebra or the tem weight script(which i dont know the name of the #

# final note: i tested it nad it works but. the second time you're gonna get #
# subtitution item you may notice it does count well the fix for that is simply#
# get out of the item screen and return. the addition will now be applied. i'll#

Wow, very nice script! No issues whatsoever, and it would really help out some Action RPGs on RRR!

However, can't you do this with a common event? I'm aware that this is easier to do, nonetheless, but can't you do it with a Common Event, and if so, is the inconvenience of constant Common Events what sparked the idea of this script?

Very nice script, though. Very neat and straightforward. Very nice, indeed!

well thats the whole idea of the script itself. to eliminate the use of common event. its pretty hard to do it on an item. did you forget that an item that has a common event in it will exit the window to map... so using my script it mimics the same effect as common event but without the window exiting... but thanks for your good comment anyway. its actually my very first script. or rather scriptlet ^v^

Would it be possible to do one for RMXP? I was just talking to my friend about that idea... Using a potion, and keeping the empty bottle, so you can fill it up again later.

if only i can finally get a grip on the XP scripts then yes i'll make a port.... but for now try it at least in VX.... aint it cool eh... 'cuz you want a port ^v^

[The Frontera]

Wow ! This script is really useful !

I will use it in my new game !

Well done, ASCIIgod !

hey mr.spuddmuncher the port is done. take it on the XP version. no other stuff needed. its more cooler to use it in xp though because the bug(you cant see the additional one swapped item after the first one. the one with VX.) is all gone.

Yeah, I guess it's only common sense that the inconvenience would trigger inspiration, huh?

I must compliment your work again. The ability to make the whole program better than it already is with scriptlets is far more impressive than some SUPR AWSUM PWNAGE Battle system, in my eyes.

why thank you. and did ya see the new XP port? its via request. you should try it out too.

This could be good for Zelda fan games
or even just drinking things in random games!

i feel dumb... can you make a demo pls?

[ASCIIgod]

i feel dumb... can you make a demo pls?

the script's functions isnt that hard... so not even a demo will not help if you wont understand the code itself. beside i added a few comments on how to use it but to make sure it sinked to your tinsy winsy little brain here how to use it...

on the customization section there is only one array type variable there or should i say hash type variable...

to make an item that changes upon consuming follow this:

Item ID => Swap ID

where Item ID is the item that has a swapping function and Swap Id is the item that will swap the consumed item...

that how easy it is also im not sorry for the insult. beside as i said earlier the script is super easy to use

[hainkiwanki]

It is a ok scipt, good job ^^
