Non Kombatant VX + ACE - kyonides - 09-27-2024

Non Kombatant VX + ACE
Version 0.2.0

by Kyonides

Introduction

This scriptlet allows you to prevent a certain hero from being present during battles.

This feature can also be disabled at any given time.

There are separate calls for party members and individual heroes. This lets you include or exclude any hero no matter if he has ever joined the party or has recently left it. How convenient that is, don't you agree? Winking

Maintenance Update

A real VX fan let me know about some strange issue taking place while loading the demo I've provided. It couldn't find a non existing method. Happy with a sweat It happens to belong to the XP port so it would obviously be missing in VX. Laughing

Later on I also found 2 other minor bugs that I smashed before reuploading the demo.

Now the script works as intended, guys! Grinning


RE: Non Kombatant VX + ACE - kyonides - 09-27-2024

A New Port Has Arrived!

Now VX ACE users can also enjoy... or hate the possibility of getting a given battler Orson excluded from, well, battles! Laughing
It relies upon the same script calls already available for VX so it won't be difficult to implement in your games, guys! Grinning
