Introduction

Allows a multitude of bonuses to be given to actors (or taken from them!) upon leveling up based on the following critera:

  • State applied to Actor
  • Actor is Class
  • Weapon/Armor is equipped
  • Actor themselves
 

You set the level up bonuses on the state, weapon, armor, class, or actor that rewards them.

 

Features

  • Reward an actor with a stat or trait increase or decrease depending on class, equipment, or active state!
  • Have equipment, states, or classes give or take skills after a certain number of levels!
  • Upgrade or downgrade weapons after they have been worn for a certain number of levels!
  • Grant items, gold, stats, skills, and equipment every single level, every other level, every third level, etc!

Level Options:

You can set level to be either a number or one of the followingspecial patterns:

 0 - Bonus will be rewarded upon leveling up for the first time with the weapon/armor equipped, state applied, or being the class the bonus is attached to.

5 - Bonus will be rewarded upon reaching level 5.

+X - Grant this bonus every X level, starting at level 1 + x. If X is 2, then grant a bonus at level 3, 5, 7, 9, etc.

-X - Grant this bonus every X level, starting at level 0 + x. If X is 2, then grant a bonus at level 2, 4, 6, etc.

*X - Grant this bonus after an actor levels up X times while the bonus source (weapon, class, etc) is active.
ID Options:

You can set ID to be the ID of the bonus you want to reward. In the below example, we're applying the default 'Knockout' state:state: 1

 

If you want a bonus to only apply while the source (a class, state, weapon, or armor) is active on the actor, append your id with !, like so:

state: 1!

 

If you're giving an item, weapon, or armor, you can provide a quantity by adding Xquantity to the end of your id. In the below example, pretend we are adding this bonus to the 'Poisoned' state. We will reward the actor with 2 of the default dispel herb items (id:3) upon level up, but only if the actor is poisoned:

item:3!x2

 

Alternatively, use the following setting to execute javascript:

 

$(codeHere;)

 

The code is executed when the actor learns the bonus. A recurring bonus will be executed every applicable time. Whatever code is executed will need to return the following based on the bonus type:

 

state: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return a state ID.

skill: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return a skill ID.

atk: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return a number to add to the stat.

                    (This can be used with any stat bonus)

gold: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return a number to add to the

                     party's gold.

item: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return an item ID.

weapon: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return a weapon ID.

armor: $(codeHere;) - Needs to return an armor ID.

 

The exclusivity (!) and quantity (x) rules apply to eval as well.

If you are evaling for an item ID, you would use quantity like so:

item:$(codeHere;)x5

 

If you want a stat gain you are evaling to only be applied

while the source is active, you would do this:

mhp: $(codeHere;)!

 

Finally, let's combine the two:

item: $(codeHere)!x5

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
