I'm new to RPG Maker, so I'm not sure if this is possible.

I'm trying to create a system where your job is to help the enemies, rather than defeat them. Is it possible to set encounters to begin with an enemy at low health, then end on healing them to full HP? If so, how?

I've looked through the system options and can't see any way to do this natively. Googling didn't yield any results either.

On start battle you can set enemies HP to whatever you want like this:


You set this event in "Troops" tab in database

To set their HP to full at battle end there is no need because whenever battle ends their properties are reset again to values set in database.

Use troop events (the grid at the bottom half of the troops tab). You can set one to run on turn 0 that lowers the enemy's HP at the start of battle, and then have another page for each enemy that runs when they're at max HP, and "kills" them when they're full- that way you win when they're all full.

You can apply a temporary "immortal" state if you don't want them to die when they reach zero (it's state #3 when you make a new project), and just remove that before adding the "death" state for the full HP enemy.

If you learn a tiny bit of javascript, you could make it a lot simpler by using script calls in conditional statements, etc.

EDIT: Another thought on getting them to leave battle when full- in the enemy's movelist (the grid on the enemy page), have everyone Flee when their HP is at 100%, and give it priority 9, with everything else being priority 6 or below. That way, every enemy will automatically leave once their HP is full, and the battle will naturally end once there are no more enemies.

Of course, they won't give rewards innately if you use that strategy.

This worked, thank you! I had to set the event to kill them at max HP on the mob itself rather than the troop events because troop events only offers a trigger for HP that is less than or equal to.

But I figured it out. Thanks for your help!

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
