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

Blue001 · 2015-10-24T12:19:19+0900

As Yanfly's Battle Engine Core and Action Sequences 1-3 basically add a new type of resource to the game that can be created/shared/requested (in the form of completed action sequences), I thought it would be a cool idea to have a thread where people can; 1 - Share any sequences that they have come up with, 2 - Request help with how certain sequences could be done. For example, if someone figures out how to do a omnislash like sequence and would like to share it, they now have a place. Be sure to thank/credit whomever created a sequence if you use it in your game. Please include a note on if the end user will need to have action sequence plugin 1, 2, 3 or all of them for the shared sequence. - For example, User SOC shared the following sequence (in another thread) to make your character swing their weapon when using the skill that contains this notetag. SWING WEAPON WHEN USING THIS SKILL motion swing: user perform action motion wait: user action animation: target wait for animation action effect: target death break perform finish Click to expand... It seems simple, but to some users, they may look at this an get confused, especially when trying to make it on their own. Having examples they can copy/paste to achieve a desired effect will help a lot. A big thank you to Yanfly for creating the plugins!

I'm a definite noob to the action sequences, so bear with me. However, I've had success up until this point. I'm wondering if someone can help me with my basic attack: pretty much just need it to change the sequence a bit for when the character is using a ranged attack or not. My code seems like it's fine, however i keep getting an error when I add (what i think) the code is to make an exception for 'missile' attacks. Here's my code, can someone help me figure out what's wrong with it? Thanks to whoever can help me out!!

Action sequence
Skill #1 will be used when you select

the Attack command.

<Timed Attack: circle>

<End Timed Attack>

<setup action>

if user.attackMotion() !== ‘missile’

immortal: targets, true

camera focus: user

zoom: 200%, 15

wait for camera

wait: 35

move user: targets, front, 20

wait for movement

else

display action

immortal: targets, true

camera focus: user

zoom: 200%, 15

wait for camera

wait: 35

JUMP user: 100%, 25

move user: targets, front, 25

wait for movement

</setup action>

<target action>

move user: forward, 65, 10

MOTION ATTACK: user

wait:10

ATTACK ANIMATION: target

wait for animation

action effect

</target action>

<finish action>

immortal: targets, false

CLEAR BATTLE LOG

reset zoom: 0

move user: return 12

wait for movement

face user: forward

</finish action>

My action sequence for regular attacks is similar to yours. I'm no pro at JavaScript (and I mean that, I know next to nothing about it) but from what you posted it looks like a syntax error right where your <setup action> begins.

Mine is:
if user.attackMotion() != 'missile'

with a single "=". You have two of them.
So try:
!= instead of !==

Thanks, totally works!!!! yeah i copypasted it from a website, so they must have accidentally gotten it wrong. for some reason, my "if" section applies to my "else" section and vice versa. I got it to work how i wanted by simply swapping them, but i'm confused. any idea why, from one noob to another? lol

Yep, because in JavaScript, the ! before the equals means 'not'. So != means 'not equal to', and 'else' is what happens if the condition isn't fulfilled, essentially swapping things around. To fix that, just remove the exclamation mark :)

Hey, a quick question. I think you check if the target is an actor with "if (target.isActor()" and if it is an enemy with "if (target.isEnemy()".
So would the syntax be the same when you check who the user is? Like. "if (user.isEnemy()".

Asking so I can make a universal Attack skill instead of needing separate ones for Actor and Enemy.

Hi all, is there a way to pan the camera if its focused on something? Panning only seems to work for me if I haven't set a focus yet. Thanks in advance.

wait for zoom

move user: target, front, 20

wait for movement

wait: 5

se: (INSERT HERE)

CAST ANIMATION: 6

float user: 80%, 30

move user: target, center, 20

float user: 150%, 30

wait for float

float user: 70%, 10

float user: 0%, 10

wait for movement

wait for float

action animation

shake screen: 3, 9, 10

action effect

immortal: target, false

reset zoom: 10

reset camera: 10

jump user: 50%, 10

move user: home, 50

</target action>

<follow action>

I really don't understand why my plugin isn't working... I just copy your scripts and paste them under the skill note, but the only thing I get is a simple attack animation (and sometimes "it's not effective on bat (the enemy) etc..."

Anyone, who know how to do the action sequences of the dramatic entry like this video? watch it at 2:00 to 2:05. Pretty please?

Greetings, everyone,

I haven't read the last 80 pages, so I apologize if I've posted the similar / same animation seq:

I have been working on some katana animations and I thought I would share it here,
this one is inspired by Himura Battosai (iaido).

It still a simple one, but I hope you like it.. \(^ ^ )
Some comments and suggestions would be nice as well..

The character would put a stance with his back exposed to the enemy,
the enemy will be lured in, closing in.. SLASH..

Hello guys!

I apologize for my poor English firstly, but if I could get some help, I would appreciate it.

Actually, I'm now trying to work out how to identify whether actors hit the target or not with yanfly's action sequence. The problem is that whatever the basic attack or skill hit the target or is evaded, states will absolutely be added to targets if "add state x" command is included. In this case, I'm looking for a solution that I could identify the attack is hit or evaded. If it's hit, then states will be added to that target while it's not, states won't be added.

The reason why I don't just put states in the effect list is that I designed a weapon. If it is equipped by an actor, then the actor's attack will 100% add one state randomly from the states list every time. In other words, if user has this weapon, his every single attack can add different states with 100% rate. So, it can not be achieved if I just add states to the effect list on the skills page or to the traits list.

That's the reason why I want to distinguish hit and evasion for attack. Actually, I don't know how to write the syntax correctly because I'm not professional at JS.

Hope I could get solutions for modifying the code because you guys are intelligent! :)

Greetings,

@Azymus
If I may suggest an idea, how about showing a picture (a sprite like those grass at the entry of the battle), zoomed in, etc through common event, then call it from an event on the map through conditional branch (if an x enemy appeared)?

@AnNihilate
I'm not a code savvy either, but if I may suggest, if it's me, I would still use traits to deliver the states on the weapon since the hit/miss rate itself seems depend on the actor's hit rate status itself (although as I was thinking of this idea, there's possibility that the weapon would produce more than 1 states on the enemy, but still it's a matter of luck on player's RNG),

And let's say if you want the enemy would only suffer one of the possible states from an attack;
as you are already found the script (if an attack is hit), i would probably tinker on it from the common event, conditional branch using "if script" and call it on the "attack" skill as a trait (normal attack)..or try call it from the weapon itself..

Using Yanfly's action sequence might be one of ways to make your idea works, but I just thought that as I'm not on that lunatic level yet, I would try another way around..
Either way, I apologize if it doesn't answer / suitable with your needs..

Best regards

Hello! Thank you for the reply!

I understand what you mean. Yes, I can use"change enemy state" command in the common event. But unfortunately, this command is unable to select the target that the actor attacks, it can only select the enemy index, which is enemies' order. This means, if actor attacks enemy No.2, a state will be added to enemy No.1. I think it's a kind of chaos. But it's a nice trying! Thank you very much.

Best wishes

Does anyone know how to check an enemies troop index number in an action sequence?

Like if I was making something like this:
Code:
<setup action> if $gameTroop.members()[1] common event: 7 else if $gameTroop.members()[2] common event: 6 else if $gameTroop.members()[3] common event: 7 end display action </setup action>
I want the enemy to act a certain way in battle based on which enemy index number it is.

hey maybe you can try this one. But I'm not good at JS, I apologize if it not works.
