Individual Battle Commands by Charlie Fleed, Version 1.0

Individual Battle Commands by Charlie Fleed

v1.0 (17-2-2008)

Introduction.
Hi all. Someone asked for a stand alone version of my Individual Battle Commands feature from my CTB... so here it is.

Demo:
Individual Battle Commands by Charlie Fleed v1.0 (mediafire)

Author's notes.
It doesn't use the SDK. Almost everything is done through aliasing, I think it should have good compatibility with other scripts.
Some methods couldn't be aliased, and for example Scene_Battle update_phase3_basic_command was rewritten in order to recognize commands by name and not by position.

Features.
This system allows to have many skill categories and displays different commands according to the skills available to a character.

Screenshots.
Not this time.

Instructions.
Inside the script.

Cogwheels RTAB compatible version:

# Configuration of Individual Battle Commands
# Let us assume that you want to create "Black Magic" and "White Magic".
# Well, create two elements named "CMD White Magic" and "CMD Black Magic",
# and add the proper element to all the skills in your database that belong
# to either of the two "categories".
# Finished. Yes. Simple, isn't it?
# Remember, if "name" is you category, use an element called "CMD name".
# "name" will end up in the command window of the actors, and it will be
# displayed only if that actor has at least one skill of that category.
# Enjoy!
