Cosmetic titles for N.A.S.T.Y. Extra Stats [VXA] (Solved!)

[Tevi]

This is a really minor thing but I'm using NASTY's Extra Stats script for RPG Maker VX Ace and want to customise the stat's name. In the script, I've put it as ":WeaponATK", but it comes out as Weaponatk on playtests. Is there something I missed or is it generally not possible to have it like this? Sorry if it's obvious, I'm kinda dumb when it comes to actually scripting stuff.

Game, and Script respectively to make sure people can actually understand my idiotic explanations-

class Window_Base < Window
def draw_actor_xstat_param(actor, x, y, param_id)
id = Z26::STATS[param_id]
change_color(system_color)
draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, id)
change_color(normal_color)
draw_text(x + 120, y, 36, line_height, actor.xstat[id], 2)
end
end

basically just remove
draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, id.capitalize) with
draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, id) and make sure the module text is capitalized the way you want it to.

Thanks, that's quite helpful actually. Is there a way to make it into multiple words, or is that wishful thinking?

Bit of a butchered solution, but you can do a case conditional and check. EX:

if the module = WeaponATK, then draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, "Weapon ATK")
If not, then default to draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, id)

Might be sleeker solutions out there, idk.

Yeah, that does work. Using my little knowledge of RGSS3, I figured out that id is equal to :WeaponATK, so- I did this:

if id = :WeaponATK
  draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, "Weapon ATK")
else
    if id = :PhysicalAffinity
      draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, "Physical Affinity")
    end
end

So yeah, a little butchered as you said, but it works, so thanks!

Make sure you use double equals signs for 'is equal to', e.g.:

if id == :WeaponATK

You might find a case statement more readable and easier to build on; something like this:

class Window_Base < Window
   def draw_actor_xstat_param(actor, x, y, param_id)
      id = Z26::STATS[param_id]
      text = id
      change_color(system_color)
      case id
      when :WeaponATK
         text = "Weapon ATK"
      when :PhysicalAffinity
         text = "Physical Affinity"
      end
      draw_text(x, y, 120, line_height, text)
      change_color(normal_color)
      draw_text(x + 120, y, 36, line_height, actor.xstat[id], 2)
   end
end

Yeah, that does look a lot better. Strangely enough though, the double equal sign gave me an error. Don't know what that was about, since I do know you're right. Thanks for the more elegant solution though.
