This script gives you the ability to have only one actor escape from the battle. It still might have a few bugs in it, so if you find this, be sure to let me know. This script is not known to play nice with custom battle systems. If you find one that it does work with, or if you are able to edit it to work with another battle system, please post the script changes here so that I can add them to this thread.
