KMustDie VX + ACE

by Kyonides

[Image: up.gif] Imagine a game world where certain battles won't force you to kill ALL of the enemy troops on screen.
[Image: sweathappy.gif] Well, you can stop doing that right away because now you can make your battle dream come true! [Image: shocked.gif]
Just set which troops are mandatory to kill via a script call and that's it! [Image: thumbs.gif] 
You won't have to depend on a tough negotiator to deal with tyrants looking for free lands up for the grabs. [Image: wink.gif]

Script Call - Use natural index values like 1 upto 8 here:
Code:
$game_troop.must_die(EnemyIndex1, etc.)

VX Script

# * KMustDie VX * #

# This scriptlet allows you to set a given number of enemies that must die in
# battle before the player can be proclaimed as the victor there.

# * Script Call * #
# - Enter 1+ Enemy Indexes to set which enemies should die before battle ends.
# $game_troop.must_die(EnemyIndex1, etc.)

Maintenance Update

I had to revisit these recent scripts because I had found a weird Bug on the VX port and confirmed in the VX ACE script as well. They failed to differentiate between normal battles and Must Die ones. This could lead the party to the victory scene without ever defeating any mobs on screen! Incredible What a Ghost monstrous disaster!

These releases address that issue by fully exterminating the darn bug! Killer
