I'm trying to make "channeled" spells into my game, which would mean that the actor which starts to channel a spell and then automatically casts a spell on their turn for a few rounds. I'm currently trying to make the effect with a state using Yanfly's Buff & States Core, but I have no idea how to make the spellcasting happen before the player gets to input commands (i.e. before choosing 'Fight', 'Guard', 'Item' etc.).


Does anyone know if there is any way to do this? I tried a workaround method by selecting 'Attack an Enemy' as a restriction and using Yanfly's Weapon Unleash to replace the attack skill with the desired spell, but that causes the actor to target a random enemy, which is not what I want.


Below is a link to my previous thread in the JS plugin request forums about my idea of channeling magic. The linked thread gave me a lot of useful advice, but due to changes in the Buff & States Core, the method described there (using the <Custom Turn End Effect> notetag) doesn't work for the automatic casting anymore.

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
