JavaScript questions that don't deserve their own thread

Hi guys, I need a script snipet to multiply a variable by a number.

Say for example variable x 5.

var t1 =0
var t3 = t1*t1
or var t1 = t1*5

Hey Everybody,

Unfortunately my Java Script knowledge is very poor so I was hoping somebody could help me out.
I am trying to add another element to the function below, basically I would like it to check if Physical and Melee damage is dealt for the recoil
effect to appear but I don;t know how to edit the function.
Any help would be appreciated,

thank you.


<Custom React Effect>

// Check to see if any physical damage is dealt.

if (value > 0 && this.isPhysical()) {

// Sets the Recoil Rate to 10%.

var rate = 0.10;

// Determines the amount of recoil damage dealt.

var recoil = value * rate;

// Sets the DEF bonus rate to 15%.

var rate = 0.15;

// Determines the amount of bonus damage dealt.

var bonus = target.def * rate;

// Rounds up the bonus damage and recoil damage.

var dmg = Math.ceil(bonus + recoil);

// Makes the attacker lose damage equal to the dmg variable.

user.gainHp(-1 * dmg);

// Check to see if the attacker is dead.

if (user.isDead()) {

// If the attacker is dead, make it collapse.

user.performCollapse();

}

}

</Custom React Effect>

What you want to edit is this part, which is the condition:
I'm not sure what you meant by Melee damage, but I guess it's the damage element? If so, just change it to this:
Change ELEMENTID to Element ID that you want, the ID start from -1 (which is Normal Attack).

Thank you!! I give it a try.

I have a question regarding Yanfly's row formation plugin. How do you restrict the number of playable characters per row? For instance I would like to restrict the number of characters to 4 per row.

Hey, I'm trying to make an attack that deals increased damage based on the number of turns that a certain state on the target has.
Using Yanfly's Buffs and States Core, btw.

<Custom Apply Effect>

if (target.isStateAffected(11)) {

var dmg = "target.getStateCounter(11)";

}

target.loseHp(dmg * (rest of attack formula goes here));

</Custom Apply Effect>

I tried using this, but it does nothing. I know nothing of Javascript so I can't figure this out on my own, can someone lend me a hand?

Edit: Note, I'm using this code on a second state that is applied with the attack.

Remove those double quotations marks. Anything that are between quotation marks will be treated as string.

I tried this, but the state still doesn't work as intented; I'm getting the same error on the console.

There is no loseHp function in the core script, try to change it to this:

Well, that kinda works, the console doesn't give an error anymore, but now the attack does 0 damage. I don't suppose .gainHp can actually DEAL damage, can it?
Is there any other function I can use?

gainHp can be used to execute damage. I think it's because dmg is 0. You can check the dmg value by logging to the console by adding this to the Custom Apply Effect:

The console just shows this...

Wait, did you remove this part?

This is my full code:

Edit: NEVERMIND! The issue wasn't on this code, but instead on the state that calculates this damage. It's fixed now, but thanks anyway!

How can I hide an option in the options menu on the title screen but have it show in-game? Using Yanfly’s Options Core.

@BloodletterQ delete it from rpg_windows from Window_Options.

Actually I was able to put the shutdown command in the options core, but it’s still there while accessing options from the title screen.

Ah, it's a concrete option! OK, in that case let's do a little magic trick. There's an important if.

if (SceneManager._stack[0] != Scene_Title) this.addCommand (that shutdown command, not sure how it's handled)

wherever this shutdown command is.

Modified it a bit by removing the "if" and parenthesis. Thanks!
