Mimic skills

[Linkforce]

Can anybody help me with this?

I need a system where when a monster uses a skill, a certain character can mimic, and therefore know the skill and use it later on.  I guess you can call it Blue magic, but it's not.  Does anybody know what I mean?  And if so, can you help?

check gamingw and do a tutorial search for blue magic.

The one there isn't what I needed.  I need it to be...original....

What are you looking for exactly? You're calling it "Mimic" yet what you want it to do is be "Blue Magic."

Mimic: You copy what another character does and do exactly what they do.
-It's is not comepletely possible in the DBS unless every single skill in the game is triggered by a switch.

Blue Magic: Exactly what you're talking about.

How can a tutorial be original?

Well, let's start with how you want to learn the ability.

Is it if you're hit with it? Or is it if the enemy uses it?

I'd assume if you were hot.
That would be easier to start the code, wouldn't it?

i think what you want is something like this:

go to monster, trigger as if monster uses"skill", hero leans "skill"

Well, Mimic usually uses the last move that the monster used, is that what you want, or do you want blue magic.  They are totally different.

I figured out how to do both versions of mimic (monsters and your party.) EVERY SINGLE ACTION IN THE BATTLE SYSTEM NEEDS  A SWITCH. I'm doing the magic/party version and it works bug free. It just takes a long time to do.

Yeah, but I also want the character to haver to do something in order to learn it.  Like enter a special code or w/e.
