show variables on screen rpg maker xp
#21
Okay, see, you've only set the Event Variable 001 when you first equiped the weapon. Variables only change when you tell them to, so if the amount of ammo changes you have to update the variable again. I edited the Syn's Ammo script, adding
Code:
    #update the Ammo variable
        $game_variables[1] = $game_party.item_number(gather_ammo)
to the methods make_skill_action_result and make_basic_action_result here is the edited script.
Code:

As an aside, you are going to have to think about this ammo system. Like, since you can't change weapons in battle (you could fake it with skills that switched for you though!) if the player runs out of ammo, the player is guaranteed death. My advice is to use this Interactive Enemies event solution http://save-point.org/thread-2103.html and also modify the escape routine so the player can always escape after the first turn. But if you want to talk more about design ideas, you should make a new thread for your game project so we can all give feedback.

This topic belongs within 'Code Support' more than Script Request as it is more script conflict than requesting a new script. Winking That's all. [/i]

THANK YOU it works like a charm this game just could not exist without your help you been indispensable thank you so much.
I let the player change weapons with a skill which you learn the moment you pick up the gun it changes the variable to that of the weapons ammo and equips the gun and changes the picture on the hud
