Buff stays at 0 turns left. Doesn't happen with states. Is it intended?

[Lnik3500]

Hello!
It's basically what the title says. Whenever I apply a buff for 1 turn, it will actually last the turn after.
Looking up the turn counter returns 0, but is only removed the turn after.

Is this intended?

and is there a fix or I just need to cope with it?

are you using any plugins?

From what I can tell this seems to be intended. Durations are updated at the end of each turn, but buffs (and "on action end" states for that matter) stay until the end of the next action.

As for fixes, if the buff is supposed to last one action you could set its starting duration to 0.
Alternatively you could use a state instead (which is generally more flexible than a buff).

If you want to use a plugin to remove buffs at the end of a turn instead you could try something like this:

/*:
* @plugindesc Remove buffs at the end of a turn
*/
(function() {
  
    var lastOnTurnEnd = Game_Battler.prototype.onTurnEnd;
    Game_Battler.prototype.onTurnEnd = function() {
        lastOnTurnEnd.call(this);
        this.removeBuffsAuto();
    };
 
})();

@Another Fen Hello, this plugin you just created actually solves the problem I had!
It switched the buff to turn end like my states would

Thank you ^w^

For anyone else in case: Buffs actually last a turn more than you specify since it gets removed on action end even once it has 0 turns left. This is by default in the engine.
