Adding a weapon's elemental damage to a skill

[Mega Man Volnutt]

Is this possible? PLugin or not. Say I have a weapon that does attack damage of Fire. I also want the skill "Ice" to do fire damage because the weapon has a fire elemental attribute as werid as it sounds.

On the skill's settings, in the top right where you specify damage properties, Element -> Normal Attack.

This means it will always do the same element as your normal weapon, so it might not be what you're asking for, but RPGMaker doesn't distinguish between a "default element" and a "special element" by itself. You might be able to make something like that work if you mess around with Yanfly's Element Core and some javascript in a lunatic mode for Skill Core (if (element == physical, I guess?) element = ice?)/

Do you think it'd be possible if I could use Yanfly's element core and write off something like this in each skill?
<Multiple Elements: Normal Attack>

Just that particular 'ice' skill?

Or do you want all skills to change to fire element with that specific weapon?

Or do you want to have every weapon with an elemental attack to effect every skill?

The latter. I want to have every skill to do whatever element it has AND whatever element the weapon has.

Okay, here's one way that should do it:

First, use yanfly's auto passive states to add a hidden state for each weapon, which sets the type of element it should add to skills ( http://yanfly.moe/2015/10/17/yep-13-auto-passive-states/ )

Then, you'll use Yanfly's action sequences ( http://yanfly.moe/2015/10/11/yep-4-action-sequence-pack-1/ ) combined with the element core ( http://yanfly.moe/2016/06/10/yep-107-element-core-rpg-maker-mv/ )

In your <setup action> for each skill that should change elements, include a block that looks something like this:

if user.isStateAffected(waterweapon)

add element: water

else if user.isStateAffected(fireweapon)

add element: fire

else if user.isStateAffected(windweapon)

add element: wind

else if user.isStateAffected(waterweapon)

add element: water

else if user.isStateAffected(heartweapon)

add element: heart

end

It's ugly, but it should work.
