Title: ***NEW recommended programming tutorials***
Post by: DragonBlaze on November 03, 2008, 11:54:59 PM
So here's the scoop, the old recommended programming tutorials thread was junk because all of the links were broken with the forum change. So I am re-making this topic. What this topic is for is to keep a list of all the useful tutorials posted. This way, members are able to browse through this list here instead of browsing page after page of topics to see if theres one there that will be useful for them. I'll look through the tutorials posted and if one looks good, I'll add it to the list. Also, if anyone thinks a tutorial should be added to the list, please reply and nominate a tutorial.

blue magic! (copy magic)


First of all, make your spells. For sake of the tutorial, I'll use 1000 Needles as an example. You make the spell, assign it to the monsters you want to have it, now what? On the monster behavior page for the spell you want learned, make it activate a switch that I'll call "1000 Needles Learned" (You'll need one switch er spell, but NOT one per monster. So this is what you should have so far.

 

Now, go into the monster formation(s) that this enemy appears in and make a new battle event, conditional being that switch "1000 Needles Learned" is on. In the event, make a forked condition that the Blue Mage can act, with a custom handler if condition is not met. Under the "not met" scenario (eg, Blue Mage is not in the party, is dead or otherwise unable to learn the spell) turn off the "1000 Needles Learned" switch. Make a common event that will contain the rest of the process, and have it called in that condition (if the Blue Mage can act).

Make a fork condition with a custom handler that the Blue Mage alredy knows the spell 1000 Needles. If he does, turn off the "1000 Needles Learned" switch. The rest of the process goes under the condition that he does not already know it. Now, if you want any status ailments to prevent them from learning spells, but not necessarily make them unable to act, make a fork condition for that ailment (I'll use Poison as an example) with the custom handler if it is not met. If the character has the ailment, turn off the "1000 Needles Learned" switch. If not, show a message saying that they learned the spell and then actually have them learn the spell. Finally, have the "1000 Needles Learned" switch turned off. So this is what you should have.
