Arbitrary Strings in Damage Display

Introduction
This script allows you to display any string you like as damage in battle. If you want to construct a string, perhaps to show MP damage, all you need to do is append the integer portion of the string to the rest of the string by using a statement like "game_actors[0].damage = "MP" + "$game_variables[1].to_s" to convert the integer contained in the variable to a string.

The "xxx" in the code below needs to be replaced with one of the following three expressions:

• $game_actors[x] - Actor with ID x.
• $game_party.actors[x] - Actor in position x.
• $game_troop.enemies[x] - Enemy in position x.

Remember that positions start at index 0.

Code:

$xxx.damage = "String"
  $xxx.damage_pop = true
