Save-Point

Hello, I'm Mexican and my English isn´t very good, it's just that I have a question, I have the tankentai battle system, and seeing the script and achieve move the positions of some elements but I can´t move the commands of attack, defend, etc.
I would like someone could advise me how to do it.

here is a picture of how I would like the menu, thanks for reading

Really? He moved the actor command window to the center??? Confused

Okay, look for a line in the script with this:

Code:
@actor_command_window.y

This controls the height of the window. Change it to something like this:

Code:
@actor_command_window.y =160

That should move the window down a bit for you. But that doesn't move it to the left or right. Adjust height according to preference.

Now do a search in the script for this:

Code:
@actor_command_window.x

That controls the left/right horizontal position and probably has a set numeric value which keeps it in the center.
Change that to this:

Code:
@actor_command_window.x = @actor_index * 160

This is actually the default code from the default battlesystem that moves the window to the actor in action. It's based on the notion of a 640 pixel width area divided by 4 actors (640/4 = 160)

As long as the @actor_index is the same value used in Tankentai's battlesystem, that should work.

BUT ... make a backup or copy of your project before performing any changes. Always a smart move.

forgive me if I did not explain well.
am, that's just a picture of how I would like it to be the command window, I couldn´t do that.
I did what you told me, but it only works with the menu vertically, well that was a result that gave me, thanks anyway, I appreciate it

if anyone knows Spanish, I'll explain easier down here:

la imagen de la izquierda es como tengo el menu actualmente y el de la derecha es como me gustaria que quedara, si fuera posible, eh intentado buscar la forma de moverlo pero no veo como, y lo que me dijo DerVVulfman solo cambio de posicion la ventana hacia la izquierda pero las opciones siguen estando en vertical, bueno espero me diera a entender un poco mas,

buen foro por cierto, saludos

The image on the left is how the menu looks right now and the one on the right is how I want it to be, if possible, but I can't work out how to make them take that shape. The way DerVVulfman said moves the window around but not the options, they stay vertical.

You need to make a new Window class. I'd tell you to use the help reference but if your English isn't very good that won't help much.

Add this script before Main;

Code:
# ** Window_Battle_Command

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#  This window is used to select a command on the battle

#  screen.

#==============================================================================

class Window_Battle_Command < Window_Selectable

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Public Instance Variables

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  attr_accessor   :commands                     #list of commands

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Object Initialization

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def initialize(commands)

    super(0, 0, 480, 64)

    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)

    self.back_opacity = 160

    @commands = commands

    @item_max = commands.size

    @column_max = commands.size

    refresh

    self.index = 0

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Refresh

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def refresh

    self.contents.clear

    for i in 0...@item_max

      draw_item(i, normal_color)

    end

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Draw Item

  #     index : item number

  #     color : text character color

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def draw_item(index, color)

    self.contents.font.color = color

    rect = Rect.new(index*((width-40)/@commands.size), 2, 120, 32)

    self.contents.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))

    self.contents.draw_text(rect, @commands[index], 1)

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Cursor Rectangle Update

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def update_cursor_rect

    self.cursor_rect.set(index*((width-40)/@commands.size), 0, 128, 32)

  end

end

then, change

Code:
@actor_command_window = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4])

Code:
@actor_command_window = Window_Battle_Command.new([s1, s2, s3, s4])

solved, thanks MechanicalPen xd

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I made the changes but didn´t work, i send you a pm... thanks

For anyone who may use this system in the future, here is the solution I sent The Dark Squid;

I am sorry! I did not know you were using "Individual Battle Commands" script.
Few more changes;
replace Window_Battle_Command with

Code:
# ** Window_Battle_Command

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#  This window is used to select a command on the battle

#  screen.

#==============================================================================

class Window_Battle_Command < Window_Selectable

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Public Instance Variables

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  attr_accessor   :commands                     #list of commands

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Object Initialization

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def initialize(commands, battler = nil)

    super(0, 0, 480, 64)

    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)

    self.back_opacity = 160

    @commands = commands

    @item_max = commands.size

    @column_max = commands.size

    @battler = battler

    refresh

    self.index = 0

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Refresh

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def refresh

    self.contents.clear

    for i in 0...@item_max

      if $scene.is_a?(Scene_Battle) and @battler != nil and 

         Usable_Command.include?(@commands[i]) and not

         @battler.skill_can_use?(Usable_Command[@commands[i]])

        draw_item(i, disabled_color)

      elsif $scene.is_a?(Scene_Battle) and @commands[i] == $scene.escape_name and 

         $game_temp.battle_can_escape == false

        draw_item(i, disabled_color)

      else

        draw_item(i, normal_color)

      end

    end

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Draw Item

  #     index : item number

  #     color : text character color

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def draw_item(index, color)

    self.contents.font.color = color

    rect = Rect.new(index*((width-40)/@commands.size), 2, ((width-40)/@commands.size), 32)

    self.contents.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))

    self.contents.draw_text(rect, @commands[index], 1)

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Cursor Rectangle Update

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def update_cursor_rect

    self.cursor_rect.set(index*((width-40)/@commands.size), 0, ((width-40)/@commands.size), 32)

  end

end

then find

Code:
@actor_command_window = Window_Command.new(160, @individual_commands, @active_battler)

replace with

Code:
@actor_command_window = Window_Battle_Command.new(@individual_commands, @active_battler)

But the windows are still in wrong place! So;

find

Code:
COMMAND_WINDOW_POSITION = [240, 160]

replace with

Code:
COMMAND_WINDOW_POSITION = [160, 275]

find

Code:
    @active_battler_window.x = COMMAND_WINDOW_POSITION[0]

    @active_battler_window.y = COMMAND_WINDOW_POSITION[1] + 56 - 24 * comand_size

replace with

Code:
    @active_battler_window.x = 0

    @active_battler_window.y = COMMAND_WINDOW_POSITION[1]+ 120 - 24 * comand_size
