DoubleX RMVXA Confusion Edit

[DoubleX]

DoubleX RMVXA Confusion Edit
Version: v1.02f

Introduction

If a battler has inflicted states with restrictions "attack an enemy", "attack anyone" or "attack an ally", he/she/it'll attack the respective targets via autobattle like actions with the autobattle flag unchanged.
This is done by reversing his/her/its identifications of allies and enemies(allies are identified as enemies and vice versa) with 50% and 100% chance with "attack anyone" and "attack an ally" respectively.
The battler won't just use "Attack"(skill #1), but instead will use all available skills. Actors will randomly pick actions as if they've autobattle flags; Enemies will pick actions according to their action patterns.

Features

* Use of notetags(requires knowledge of notetag usage) to set specific states with those restrictions to have the edited confusion effects
* A way to set all states with those restrictions to have edited confusion effects without using notetags(and ignoring them)
