Intro So in my current project, I wanted to make certain abilities, weapons, armor, etc react differently with different enemy race types. At first, I figured I'd just fake it and use elements, but I quickly began to realize that wasn't going to be good enough. So I spent a few hours making something that would give me the extra complexity I wanted. This thing was the result. While relatively simple compared to a lot of what I see here, I figured it's probably useful enough that it warrants sharing anyway, so here! What is it? Tentatively called "Race Core," it's a plugin that allows you to assign races to actors and enemies, as well as modifiers that interact with these races on pretty much anything relevant to combat: actors, enemies, classes, items, skills, weapons, armor, and states. What can I do with it? Just some examples of what you can make with it: Dark Knight Cecil's dark swords, which deal negligible damage to undead when using physical attacks. Dragon Quest 3/4's Dragon Killer sword, which deals extra physical damage to dragons. A partywide buff skill that increases all damage dealt to, and reduces all damage received by enemy demons. A Rod that enables the user's magical attacks to deal additional damage to constructs. A shield that reduces physical (or magical, or both) damage from undead. A Exorcist class that deals extra damage to demons and undead with all attacks. An EMP Grenade that deals heavy damage to mechanical enemies, but minimal damage to everyone else. With Yanfly's auto passive states, you can create passive skills which, when learned, increase an actor's physical (or magical, or both) damage against, say, Mechanical enemies. Enemies that deal extra damage to Humans, making any nonhuman party members a good strategic choice against those enemy types. (although you really will need to clue your players in on this somehow) Bows/Thrown weapons that deal extra damage to flying enemies ...and so on! Since it does its thing completely independent of elements, you can have both a fire elemental axe and a holy elemental sword that both deal extra damage to undead without using any multi-element plugins or other such shenanigans. If you use libra/scan abilities or a bestiary of sorts in your game, there's function calls available to assist in fetching the enemy's assigned race. Or races in case you want to assign more than 1 to a given enemy. Unleash the Undead Plants! All the important how-tos are in the plugin help/description. When will it be released? Just as soon as I'm certain it won't explode in a horrible mess. Probably. Where can I get it? https://github.com/Aesica/RMMV/blob/master/AES_RaceCore.js Conclusion Feel free to try it out if it appeals to you, although I haven't tested it as extensively as I'd like to so there's probably bugs. If you decide to try it out and find any, feel free to report them. So yeah, enjoy and stuff. Maybe!

You could probably pair it with Yanfly's target core (and selection control) to select only male or female targets, which I'm guessing you're using. As for assigning multiple sexes to a target, no I didn't make with that in mind, but you could always use note tags (such as <Futanari>) to assign that as a trait to targets meant to be selectable by both "targets female" type abilities as well as "targets futanari" type abilities. But you'd have to check for the <Futanari> tag differently using the getTag function about half of my plugins include (I'm pretty sure Race Core is one of them) and you can do it like this:

someBattler.getTag("Futanari")

someBattler can be any reference to a battler, such as a.getTag("abc") in a formula box, or target.getTag("abc") in many of yanfly's note tags, or even a direct reference like $gameTroop.members()[0].getTag("abc")

Hopefully that made sense.

okay from what I can understand that's not what I was asking my question can you put multiple custom selection codes in the notetags of skills for example can I do this and will this make that
enemy targeted by this skill only on futanari or female enemies I used 3 as my futanari sex type in the plugin paramenters I only made my enemy have only one sex type futanari in the second image?

Oh you want the effect to target a female or futa? Yeah you'd just do something like this:
Code:
<Custom Select Condition> condition = target.sex === "Female" || target.sex === "Futa"; </Custom Select Condition>

Hello, thank you for creating such a wonderful plugin!
(Please excuse my poor English, as I am not very fluent.)

[My environment] RPGMakerMV - v1.6.3
[Plugin used] AES_Race core v2.0

[Current situation]
I am currently considering assigning “attributes” in addition to “races” using this plugin.

The plugin's help section states, “- To assign more than one race to an actor/enemy, separate with commas (ex: <Race: Undead, Plant>.”

Following this, I set the Note Tags on the actor side to “<Race:1,3>, <Attack vs 2:2>” and on the enemy side to “<Race:2,4>, <Attack vs 1:0.5>,” and tested it with a constant damage skill, but it did not work properly.

This occurs not only in the main project I am working on but also in the initial project.

Since I cannot determine whether this is an issue on my end, I would appreciate it if you could verify this for me.
I apologize for the inconvenience, but please assist me in this matter.
I support your efforts, so please keep up the good work!

I'm surprised you found this plugin since I made it like 10,000 years ago. A few things, though:

1. Does the skill dealing damage do so through the formula box, or the fixed/percentage value skill parameter often used by healing potions, etc?
2. I can't remember if I ever actually got the ID-based assignment correct or not. It's been sooo long. Have you tried using the race names instead?

Thank you for your prompt reply. I was very happy to find this plugin, as it was exactly what I wanted to do!

1. I set the calculation box to “50 constant damage” and “a.atk * 4 - b.def * 2” (both with dispersion set to 0).
When setting a single race, it behaved correctly
(in the former case, damage from the actor was 100, and damage from the enemy was 25),
but when setting multiple races, both constant damages remained at 50.

2. According to the patch notes (referenced here: https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/inde...collection-updated-aes_commandcontrol.109451/), the latest version does not support race names and requires specification via base ID.
When I tried setting it using the race name, the damage remained at 50 even with a single race.
“<Race:1>” works properly here, so I suspect that the behavior becomes abnormal when multiple races are specified separated by commas.
I'm not an expert, so I can't say for certain...

If you have the time, I would appreciate it if you could consider addressing this issue. I apologize for the inconvenience, but thank you in advance!
