DoubleX RMVXA Unison Skills/Items Compatibility Fix  v1.02f​

by DoubleX​

Note

Putting DoubleX RMVXA Unison Skills/Items above Yanfly Engine Ace - Instant Cast may fix their compatibility issues already

I won't fix compatibility issues with YSA CATB as writing a new unison skill/item addon to it is obviously easier

DoubleX RMVXA Unison Addon to YSA Battle System: Classical ATB:

Edit: I won't fix compatibility issues with YEA-BattleEngine as well as writing a new unison addon to it leads to a much better solution

DoubleX RMVXA Unison Addon to Yanfly Engine Ace - Ace Battle Engine

The currently compatibility issue with Yami Engine Symphony - Battle Symphony is outsourced to DoubleX RMVXA Tag Addon to Yami Engine Symphony - Battle Symphony.

How do you make both characters walk in at the same time?  I'm using Yami's Battle Symphony and when I use the duo skill, one actor walks in only but the other just stays still.  Is there a fix to this?  Or am I missing something?  I'm probably thinking I need to add the code: unison x, game actor with id x(i.e., $game_actors[x]) but where does it go?

It goes to the symphony tags of the unison skills. unison x is a new symphony tag I made in this script to let users specify an actor via the id. It's similar to other symphony tags in terms of their usage.

You can check this post for more information about symphony tags:

Thanks DoubleX! = D
This script will help me A LOT!

Just do not understand a thing. Skills using the "<unison item: X, Y>" can not call a common event? Why?

It's because of an ridiculously silly bug in my original unison item script. I've fixed it and that script is updated:

Ahoy!


I spent some quality time with Yami's ATB today, my poor laptop from the '90s almost burned down from this much battle time, lol.


Added almost all of your addons for it, and everything works fine.


The only thing I can't figure out is this new "unison x y" symphony tag.


I tried to put that everywhere I can think of, in all 5 parts of the symphony tags (target, whole, etc.), but nothing works, only one actor will use the skill, only one will move and do actions.


I am sure that I'm the one messing this up somehow, but don't know how.


If a unison skill requires actor 4 and actor 5 to use, for example, how would I make that in symphony tags?


A simple "unison 4 5" or should I place something else, like "unison: 4 5", "unison: 4, 5" or "unison[4, 5]"?


I made several skills with symphony tags already from simple to a bit more complicated, but this one I just can't figure out.


Can you make a really simple example, like 2 actors just performing a simple attack on the targeted enemy, or just 2 actors moving to the same place with a unison skill used?


It doesn't have to be anything complicated, just a really basic example.


Pretty please! *-*


And of course, thanks for all of your scripts!

As you quoted the unison symphony tag as "unison x y", it seems that you combined Yami's ATB + Battle Engine Symphony with my Unison Item script aimed for the default battle system + this compatibility fix. This combination won't work and the working one is Yami's ATB + Battle Engine Symphony combined with my Unison Addon to his ATB + my Tag Addon to his Battle Engine Symphony. In this case, the supposed unison symphony tag is id x y although you can use another one if you know how to make such unison symphony tags. My Unison Item script and my Unison Addon to Yami's ATB are 2 different scripts as they aim for 2 different battle systems.

For the use of id x y symphony tag, let's look at the below example:

<whole action>immortal: targets, truemove id 1 2: forward, waitpose: id 1 2, caststance: id 1 2, castanimation 81: id 1 2, waiticon create: id 1 2, weapon</whole action><target action>pose: id 1 2, 2h swingstance: id 1 2, attackicon: id 1 2, weapon, swinganimation 65: targetani wait: 3skill effect: dmgwait for animation</target action><follow action>animation 81: id 1 2, waitpose: id 1 2, 2h swingstance: id 1 2, attackicon: id 1 2, weapon, swinganimation 68: targetsani wait: 2skill effect: wholeani wait: 2skill effect: wholeani wait: 2skill effect: wholeani wait: 2skill effect: wholeimmortal: targets, false</follow action>The result should be almost the same as this:

Thanks for the help!

I am using these scripts now:
- DoubleX RMVXA Unison Addon v1.02b to YSA Battle System: Classical ATB
- DoubleX RMVXA Unison Skills/Items Compatibility Fix v1.02c

So if I understood right, I don't need the second script, only the first and your tag addon for symphony?

I copied the unison tag from that second script and pasted into the tag addon.
It works like that, but unfortunately, for some reason it is not compatible with Galv's Battle Favour Meter.
It can't calculate the '$game_temp.skill_used.favour_bonus' if using a unison skill (undefined method 'favour_bonus' for nil:NilClass). Oddly enough, it happens only when it is the very first skill used in battle. o.o
If I use an attack, a guard, anything before the unison skill with any actor available, it won't give the error.

I guess I could work around that by restricting my unison skills in the first turn and unlock them from the second and onward, or something similar. But it is still annoying. >.>

Nevermind the above. I noticed that the unison addon modifies the make_dmg_value definition if unison skills were used, so I just needed to put the Battle Favour script after the unison addon script. 

Everything works now! *-*
