Capture Enemies

Capture Enemies By DreamX Introduction/Features Capture enemies, adding their actor version to the party. Patch Notes v1.8 - Compatible with Yanfly CTB. 1.7 - Fixes issues with loading more than one save during a game session causing captured actors of a different save game overriding each other. This version is not compatible with saves made with previous versions. 1.6 - I've updated the plugin with the following notetags: Put with x as the switch id as an enemy notetag to set the switch to true when the enemy is captured. Put with x as the variable id as an enemy notetag to incremenet that variable by 1 every time the enemy type is captured. In addition, there is a parameter that you can use to increment a variable every time any enemy is captured. v1.5 - Added parameter to decide whether to add captured enemies in battle or after battle. Right now, if that parameter is false, captured enemies will be added right before scene returns to the map, after the battle. Will change timing in an update later so you don't see the captured enemies a split second before the return to the map. v1.4f - Fixed crash on collapse of non-capturable enemies. v1.4 - Added parameter to level up an actor instead of duplicating their capture. v1.3 - There is now a parameter to decide whether captured enemies give EXP. v1.2 - Captured enemies now correctly display their sideview sprite. Now compatible with VE BattlerGraphicSetup. 1.1 - Fixed cannot capture message appearing with every normal action. How to Use Place under Yanfly plugins. Right click the script link and select save link as a .js file. Must be used with Yanfly's Battle Engine Core to work properly. Put into the notetag of an enemy, with x as the actor id. Put or into the notetag of a skill or item to enable capture. guarantees capture while adds x to the chance of capture. Put in the notetag of an actor to add x to the chance of capture. Make sure this is the same actor id as you put in the enemy notetag. Put in the notetag of a state to add x to the chance of capture when the enemy has that state. When you use the item or skill succesfully, the actor in that notetag will be added. You can have duplicates. You can manually add actors to your party by using the AddActor x y plugin command with x being the actor id and y being the level. You can still have duplicates. Make a comment in the first page of a troop with to disable capture for that battle. Make sure the comment only consists of that. Here are the text codes for the message parameters: %1 - The name of the enemy in the capture attempt %2 - The name of the troop in the database %3 - The name of the actor corresponding to the enemy Script Script (1.6a) Compatibility Compatible with Yanfly and Hime's respective enemy level plugins. Actors will be added upon capture at the level the enemy is at.

Hi @DreamX first of all thank you for the plugin, I'm enjoying using it in tandem with yanfly and sumrndmdde plugins for a fun monster project. I've gotten a class and party system down but am wondering if you would know a smart way to code an event having to do with changing class of the copies at a certain level.

I'm looking for a way that if a copy(of specific base ids) hits a certain level in a class that I could use a change class and change actor image script to accomplish it, but I'm coming up short on a way for the event to detect when copies have hit a certain level. I'll use a specific example to clarify. If I have a copy of base actor id 9, with class id of 9, and they turn level 15 in that class after a battle, and this would be the level I'd like to change them at. What I'm thinking of is a parallel event I could just put on maps, but I'm wondering if there may be a better way you could think of.

Is there anything you intend to do other than just change the appearance and class?

Thanks for the fast response, honestly not much else once the copy/level is identified. Name change and call a common event. I think that would be more than enough to get anything I could want.

Hello,Dream.

I could capture enemy, but I capture it endlessly enemies.

How can I set the upper limit?

I will add in some options for that soon, stay tuned.

@kiroweb I would like to know what you suggest having the game do if the player tries to catch enemy but they are at the limit.

I want to catch up to only 1 for each enemy.

Coz the game system will collapse if the player can catch one enemy multiple.

v1.10:

Added parameter "Capture Limit" that allows you to set the number of allowable capture per enemy.

There is also a parameter to set the message displayed when you try to capture an enemy but are at the limit.

Also fixed a bug with level up capture @JoePie

Hi,

I couldn't make my "dream".

1. My team has only 1 actor and, I captured another type enemy.

2. I tried another type, but I got an error. "undefined is not function."

Do you know why?

I wanted to be able to catch only one actor of enemy. -One actor, only one.

Thank you for reporting this bug. I believe I have fixed it with the latest version just now (1.10a)

Remember to set the Capture Limit parameter to 1

Let me know if you still have problems

This is awesome. I've wanted to make a project centered around a mechanic like this, or at least have catch-able monsters as a feature in a normal rpg.

I didn't see it, but is there a way to make capture rate affected by hp? That way weakened monsters are easier to catch than healthy ones. I could come up with a formula, but I wouldn't know where to put it.

By default the capture rate is affected by hp. It is a parameter so if you want to change it you can.

Hi, um I have tried using this plugin (V1.10b), but I cannot catch anything; the plugin is on, I configured it correctly, ordered it right, and no error codes. But no-go...

Has any one experienced this difficulty, and fixed the problem with the plugin.

Help! (I really wanna make a Pokemon Fan-game for friends/family)

Hi there, love the plugin, it works great except for something weird: When I use the newest version v1.10b, the enemy does not take over the level set in Yanfly Enemy Levels, yet when using the other, older version in the original post v1.6a, it does work. In both cases, I have the plugin set at the bottom of the plugin list below the yanfly plugins, and this is a fresh project besides some database changes. I've tried Hime's level plugin too, but it's the same deal. Am I doing something wrong?

Since I'm not able to reproduce this problem, I'm going to ask you to do the following:

1. Download this

2. Upgrade it to 1.3.1

3. Recreate the problem in as few steps as possible

4. Upload to dropbox.com and post the link
