KEnemy Slain ACE

by Kyonides

Introduction

This scriptlet allows you to set custom enemy defeated messages.

Just leave a note in the DB Enemy's notebox:

Code:

<defeat> cried out loud!</defeat>

WARNING: The string should always begin with an empty space.

It will display the message without the <defeat> tags on screen.

By default the scriptlet uses the Battle Log here known as :log .
You can set it to :window to display the message window instead.

And you can call it to change the current display mode ingame!

Code:

EnemySlain.message_mode = :log
EnemySlain.message_mode = :window
