RMMZ Check if a large-healing spell actually heals anyone?

[Indinera]

I'm using Visustella. Is it possible to check if a large-healing spell recovers at least 1 HP for at least 1 character?

For a single-healing one, I know this works:

<JS Pre-Damage>
if (b.hpRate()==1) ( whatever you want );
</JS Pre-Damage>

But is there a way to "extend" it to the full party?

if ($gameParty.aliveMembers().some(actor => actor.hp<actor.mhp))

You could replace that with the same hpRate() reference you use above, if you prefer the consistency, I just figured have the computer do insignificantly fewer operations

Multi-target actions are applied once per individual target, so you might also want to use a different tag, e.g. <JS Post-Start Action>.

Note that by default someone with 0% REC (Recovery Effect Sp-param) will receive 0 healing, regardless of their current HP. Similarly with element rates, the PDR/MDR Sp-params, and any plugin features that alter damage. If you want to account for all that, rather than just checking "at full HP?", I think you'd have to compare each target's HP before & after apply.

Good points.

If you are using a Custom Action Sequence, you can check by using a variable. In the BattleCore plugin, under the Mechanics Settings you can assign a variable to track how much healing a skill does.

The variable is reset to 0 at the start of the next action.

So if you want to check if the skill recovers at least 1 HP, after the Action Effect make a conditional branch checking if the variable is greater or equal to 1.

Thank you everyone.
