KMessageTarget MV
2 Versions
by Kyonides Arkanthes
by Kyonides Arkanthes
Introduction
By default the Battle Log doesn't expect you to add a target's name to a skill action message. This plugin changes that to make sure you can certainly read who's the hero's current target.
Please read the instructions embedded in the plugins.
Simple Version

//===========================================

};Side Note: There should be another regex that I could have used there, yet, I preferred to use a very specific one that people could quickly interpret as an enemy's name if they ever find it in the message box. We could say it's a very friendly reminder of what it actually stands for.
