Damage appears behind bars in battle
#1
Hello all,

I'm back to work on my project and have run into a small problem. Would anyone be willing to share his/her knowledge with me? I'm using the SephirothSpawn bar script on the menu and battle screens, and when damage to the party is displayed during battle, the number appears behind the bars (i.e., is hidden by the bar graphics). Is it possible to display the damage in front of the bars instead?

Thanks in advance for any help you're willing to offer!

Could you post the script please? This should be an easy fix.

Thanks for the quick reply and offer to help!

Here is the script:

EDIT: I FIXED THE PROBLEM BY RESTORING WINDOW_BASE TO DEFAULT. SOMETHING THERE WAS PREVENTING THIS CODE FROM WORKING PROPERLY. PLEASE MARK AS SOLVED AND CLOSE.

My apologies for posting once more here, but it turns out that the problem was not solved as I thought.

The trouble is that battle animations, damage, and "critical" / "miss" text appear behind the bars during battle. I'm still using the script posted above. If I can provide any additional information in order to make troubleshooting easier, please let me know. Thanks to anyone who is willing to help!
