.note, Need general help with setting up a one for States, Like PoisonDMG = Options

[Titanhex]

Alright I want to use the .note of a State so that I can read some values from it.

Particularly, I want it so if the string Slip DMG = is in the note it uses the value after Slip DMG =. This isn't mentioned in dah0rst's tutorial, so I came here to ask how I'd do it. How would I go about something like this?

I want it to be used in Game_Battler class, since that contains this:

CODE

  def slip_damage_effect
    if slip_damage? and @hp > 0
      @hp_damage = apply_variance(maxhp / 10, 10)
      @hp_damage = @hp - 1 if @hp_damage >= @hp
      self.hp -= @hp_damage
    end
  end

I constructed this snippet from reference and for the most part understand it:

CODE

      $data_states[].note.each_line { |line|
      slip_amount = line.gsub('Slip DMG = ', '').chomp.to_i if line.include?('Slip DMG = ')
      }

Unfortunately I don't know how to get the number of the state causing the slip damage.
