Temporarily Shutting Off Access to Certain Menus

Hi - I have an issue during a boss battle if the player goes to the 'Key Items' slot and uses an item that triggers a common event, it will messup the whole fight. Is there any script I can call to temporarily shut off access to the 'Key Items' slot only. Edit: It's an ABS, so changing useability won't work.

Thanks,

Dym

You could adjust 'occasion' in your item database from 'always' to 'only from the menu' so that it will not be useable in battle.

Have you tried changing the Occasion to "Only from the Menu" for that key item? :)

Sorry, I should have been more clear, it's an ABS, so that won't work. Whoops.

I figured you'd be having some kind of extra system as the default item menu in battle only uses the items "tab"... which ABS would that be?

Falcao's Pearl ABS. I'm really just wondering if there's a script call that will prevent access in the same way that, say, you can disable save access.

So, for example, @save_disabled = true will disable save access. Is there an equivalent to a sub-menu category, like "Key Items"?

Alternatively, if this is not possible, could I temporarily re-route the "items" selection in the menu to only go to the "items" bag (not armor, weapons, key items)?

I've moved this thread to RGSSx Script Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.


Please provide a LINK to the script you're using. I doubt there's an equivalent to enable/disable key items. It'd have to be a mod.

This isn't script support, Shaz, it has nothing to do with any script -- I am asking how to disable certain menu access through a script call, that's all. The only reason why I mentioned a script was to explain why I couldn't solve my problem the simple way.

So, for example, you can shut off the 'save' menu access by using the script call @save_disabled = true, I was wondering if there was an equivalent for key items, sort of like @key_items_disabled = true (i made this up).

-Oh, alright, if you don't know of it, then it probably doesn't exist. I'll work on it, thx..

You could probably see if Yanfly's Item menu script could allow that (custom conditions for the categories)
