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.

I love this plugin, but is it possible to assign a monster to a actor, like a actor can only have 1 monster?
Sorry if your plugin cannot do this, if you know could you tell me if there is a plugin to this?

To anyone who was getting a "typeError cannot red property 'push' of undefined" (i think that was it) i was having the same problem and as mentioned by someone before, once you start a new game and dont load an old save this will go away. Everything else seems to work perfectly and i highly recommend this plugin!

Question, is it possible to have monsters suffer some form of Permadeath? I'm wanting to have it be so that, while the main heroes can get KO'd all day long, their monster companions need to be replaced and are somewhat disposable.

I think I need some help. I can't seems to understand where am I supposed to put what (English is not my first language, maybe why). Ive put
<capture_actor_id:1> into the note tag of a Bat, and <capture> into a note tag of a skill and gave that skill to an actor, and I'm not sure what to do next.
Am I supposed to create an actor that's a bat?

Hey guys. I'm not sure if anybody is still looking around in this forum but I could use some help. I'm new to this software and I'm trying to get myself started.

I've downloaded the battlecore plugin and this plugin. They're both on, I've created an actor with ID 0005, I've added <capture:1> to the actor ID, I've added <capture:1> to the basic attack skill as well as to a new skill called "lure", and I've added <capture_actor_id:0005> to the bat enemy.

Nothing seems to happen after I do a battle. The battle just ends. Has anybody else had this issue?

Is there a way to limit how many monsters you can have at any given time? So, lets say I don't want players to have more than 5 (they have to release one if they want others), is there a way to prevent them from getting more? And I don't mean party size during the battle but also outside of it.

I'm trying to figure out how to use this plug in, but I keep running into some errors.

Here's how I have everything set up. Is there anything glaringly obvious that I'm doing wrong?

Hi Friends, I'd like a bit of help with some compatibility issues.

I'm currently trying to use this script

var newActor = InstanceManager.addActor();
var party = $gameSystem.reserveParty();
party.addActor(newActor.id);

from Hime's InstanceManager.

Is there a method to reference the new Actor that was just caught with DreamX_CaptureEnemies then store it into a reserveParty by defining
var newActor = (The Actor just caught with DreamX_CaptureEnemies)

Sorry if that didn't make sense as I'm not a programmer just a hobbyists looking to learn.

I don't know if they continue to support here but I have a problem.
I did a battle with 3 enemies, 2 of them are repeated, this in order to see if you could duplicate actors and everything was fine until walking the same group of enemies appeared again, I tried to capture them but this error appeared to me.
Has it happened to someone else?

If anyone is interested I've made a change to the levelUpDuplicateActors function. When [Level Up Instead of Duplicates] is enabled it will level up your existing capture to the level of the new captured enemy if the enemy's level is higher. If the new capture has a lower lever it will just increase your existing capture by 1 level as normal.

JavaScript:

DreamX.CaptureEnemy.levelUpDuplicateActors = function (actorId, target) {
        for (var i = 0; i < $gameParty.allMembers().length; i++) {
            var actor = $gameParty.allMembers()[i];
            if (actor.actorId() === actorId || actor.baseActorId() === actorId) {
                if (actor._level < target.level) {
                    actor.changeLevel(target.level, false);
                } else {
                    var newExp = actor.currentExp() + actor.nextRequiredExp();
                    actor.changeExp(newExp, paramDefaultLevelUpMsg);
                }
            }
        }
    };

I played around with this years ago, and I love it. I just do.

I do not know if it changed much after, but when I used it, it was just simple. It did what it had to do and left everything else to the imagination of the user.

But what I actually want to say about it is: I think it is very, very smart to not advertise it as a pokémon system. I have seen many other devs over the years trying to do the same, but they all make it and advertise it as a pokémon system. Their system is titled "Poké-"anything, it is filled with pics of pokéball and Pikachu. Making it instantly an underground system, only used for pokémon rip offs.

With your system users who really want to make a fan-game, can do just that. But because it is not promoted like that, everyone else can use it too.

So, :thumbsup-left::thumbsup-right: for that, really.
