Capture Enemies

DreamX · 2016-03-01T14:10:43+0900

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, I have a new problem.

I couldn't capture enemy that did'nt ever capture.
Do you know why?

I use 3 enemies the first of game partnar.
The player can choice his favorite enemy.
If the player choice No.1, he can capture all of enemies.
But he choice No.2, and No.3, he can capture almost of enemies, however he cant capture No.1 and No.2 enemy he don't have.

Hi There! I love your plugin.

I'm using Yanfly Party System to recreate a "PC" pokemon style for the enemies I capture using your plugin. Is there a way to actually remove/delete an actor from the party list? My problem is that if I capture 20 of the same enemies, the list of available actors becomes very cluttered and confusing very quickly.

Thanks again!

EDIT: I downloaded the latest version. Also, I was using name for ID instead of their ID number, silly me. It's fixed now and works great! :D

Hey, cool plugin, bit of a problem though. I cant seem to be able to capture any enemy, at all. I've tried multiple times with both items and skills, even trying with only the essential plugins needed on a new game. Upon using the item/skill, it does nothing and moves on. Help?

<captureRate:x>

Silly question: should I put % into x or what? Can anyone help?

Edit: Found a bug I think. If you catch an enemy, then it's shown in actual battle. So I fight with one bat, I catch him and then he's appear as my party member, but also he's still on screen as enemy. It should be added as party member after battle process I think. Can you please fix this? Just found true/false option to fix that, sorry >_>;

@DreamX , can I change names while have multiple catches of the same actor? Can I remove them from party..? Same questions as @kiroweb I think ^^;

Hello, I am interested in using your script. I have tested it out and was wondering if there is a way to either remove the caught enemy from the battle scene when multiple enemies are on the field, or to have the item used to capture the enemy stay on the enemy? I tried using Yanfly's visual states script to continue the animation of the capture but they don't work together.

Thanks a lot for your plugin! It work's nicely and I really appreciate it. Do you think it would be possible for me or someone to add something where instead of "capturing with a skill", enemies have a fixed % chance to ask to join your party and then you have another fixed % chance to capture them after they ask? Not with any skill or anything.

Again thanks a lot. And if that would be possible I'd really love that.

Helllo, I realize this topic is probably dead but I am having issues and wasn't sure where else to ask for help so I will post here in the hopes some one can help me.
when I attempt to capture a monster no matter what changes I make it keeps coming up with "can not read property "name" of undefined" error. I think I have everything set up properly but obviously there is something I am missing.
here are some pictures of what i have done. thanks in advance for any help.

You're fine posting in a Plugin Release thread, no matter how old it is, as these are not covered by the necroposting rule.

The most common reason for this error is that you used an existing save file after you installed the plugin. The plugin will be looking for data in the save file which is not there. When you install a new plugin, you need to start a fresh playthrough, not pick up from where you left off with an old save file.

On a side issue, if you use Alt+PrtSc, it will take a screen shot of just the active window, not your whole desktop. This makes it easier to read the tab/event data.

Thank you for your reply.
the error is occurring after making a brand new game with no saves and playing it under test play conditions.
thank you for the tip, I will make sure to keep it in mined.
Thanks again for the help

Is it possible to make the capture rate equal a variable. For example, if variable equals 70% then capture rate is 70%. Thank you

Hi, @DreamX! I like this plugin, and I have a new idea for it.
In Final Fantasy Ⅵ, there's a character, Relm, who can sketch and "copy" enemies, when succeed, the enemy will become a skill of hers.
I think this plugin can be reformed and realize this function: capture an enemy, and the charactor can learn a new skill.
How do you think?

how to use a spell to capture monsters without having a bug?

#120 Mar 22, 2018, 03:55 PM Source

@balder It might not be a bug. Could you describe exactly what you did, so that people can see if there is an error in your implementation.
Thanks.

Sorry to bring this back up, but I have an issue with the plugin and I would like to know if I could get some help with it. I can capture an enemy but its still there in the battle after capture and it dies in one hit, instead of that happening, is there anyway it will be removed from the battle completely if its captures successfully?
