Pre-made (Yanfly's) Action Sequence Sharing and Discussions

I Edited my post, because I've found more about what's going on.
 
I'm making a game with an evented button action command system. I want the skill to activate the common event for the button action command, then afterwards, deal damage depending on whether or not the player was successful. I'm using both the YEP_X_ActSeqPack1 and YEP_SkillCore along with their required plugins. I used this in a note tag:
 



Skill #1 will be used when you select
the Attack command.
 
<Before Eval>
console.log("Before Eval");
if ($gameSwitches.value(9)) {
console.log("Switch 9");
if (target.isEnemy()) {
console.log("Targeting Enemy");
value *= 2
} else {
console.log("Targeting Ally");
value /= 2
}
}
</Before Eval>
 
<whole action>
common event: 10
</whole action>



 
I'm want the skill core to test whether the switch 9 is on and if so, change the damage value, but I seem to be doing it wrong. The common event isn't running, and if I use the debug to set switch 9 on before the battle starts, the console log shows that the switch is on and that an enemy or ally is being targeted, but the "value *= 2" and "value /= 2" parts aren't working.

all we need are projectiles to be included.

What do you mean by projectiles?

Alright, I must be doing something wrong here. So I encounter a problem based on executing animated attack methods through the skill listings. As an example, whenever I use fireslash, my guy moves and all, but doesn't execute the sword animation to make it seem like he's slashing and instead, expresses the fire slash animation with his hands. The same method that rpg maker mv default setting goes along when executing skills. This here is my script:


<Target Action>


Move user: target, front center, 2


wait for movement


motion swing: user


perform action


action animation: target


wait for animation


action effect: target


perform finish


</Target Action>





 

I had this working long, long ago on my old game before I scrapped it. I know it can work, just a small piece is missing.

Don't know what to tell you, like I said it's working fine for me, does that actor has the correct weapon equipped?, is the weapon a swinging weapon? did you alter in any way the Weapon sheet in the system folder of your project?, those are the only plausible reasons for the actor to attack with empty hands.

I present to you ...my newest masterpieces: COMBO SKILLS! :D


PS: Don't mind the video quality, I messed up the settings on my video capture device...oops.


Part 1:












Part 2:

I got the common event to work, apparently having indentation will stop the code from working, so I got rid of all indentation, so now my only question is:How do you change the damage using Yanfly's YEP_X_ActSeqPack1 plugin? I thought it was by using "value", this was the notetag that I was using:



Skill #1 will be used when you select
the Attack command.

<Before Eval>
console.log("Before Eval");
if ($gameSwitches.value(9)) {
console.log("Switch 9");
if (target.isEnemy()) {
console.log("Targeting Enemy");
value *= 2
} else {
console.log("Targeting Ally");
value /= 2
}
}
</Before Eval>

<whole action>
common event: 10
</whole action>






 






 

You don't use Yanfly action sequence plug-in, simply as that; It doesn't work like that the "action sequence" doesn't affect the damage formula at all.


You need to use a different Plug-In like Yanfly Damage Core that had it's own note tag for the damage formula.

Those using the <Pre-Damage Eval> and <Post-Damage Eval> are able to make use of the damage to be dealt and the damage that has been dealt through the 'value' variable. The <Pre-Damage Eval> notetag is capable of altering the 'value' variable and return it to have damage affected by its code.

Are you sure? I read this part in the Skill Core plugin help:


Now that I've read it though I've realized my code needs changed:


It didn't work though.

Well first you read that in Skill Core, the Actions Sequence and Skill Sore work together as they are made by Yanfly true, but they aren't not the same thing, this thread is for questions regarding the Action Sequence series of plug-ins and for the people who is kind enough to post their samples of skills.


While I'll suggest moving the question regarding the code to the damage formula or make your own thread, but maybe if you explain what you are trying to do, we can show you an easier way instead of using the code.
