[SOLVED] Decreasing parameters by percent. Options

[Kaleb Daub]

I was wondering if there is a script or a way in the database to make weapons and skills decrease max parameters by a percent. I know you can boost parameters through weapon and skill traits, but don't know if there is a way to decrease them.
Any help? Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: Here is the script that fixed my problems just in case any one else needs it.

Tried it kept getting errors when I start the project.Around the bottom It appears you have spelled parameter wrong a few times around I believe lines 77-80 I think the "if" variable I believe is what it us called is spelled wrong you have "elsif" in its place. I fixed some spelling then it stopped giving me errors when I used the MHP tag but it didn't work. So I tried the other notes , but, when its not MHP it stops working. Its weird it keeps giving me a variable or method error and I tried it in a blank project and it still gave me the same error.
So over all this script isn't functional as is. Unless I don't understand something.

I didn't see any script errors you made well I am a newbie to scripting, but when I test it the errors stop,but the stats wont decrease. In fact it wont increase either. Sorry if its a hassle.
