Hide the MP/TP bar for certain charactrers

[xcom]

Hello everyone!

So this is what I'm trying to do.  I have some characters that use just TP, and others that use MP, and a couple that use both.  I've been looking for a way to hide the MP bar for the ones that don't use MP, and hide the TP for the ones that do not use TP.  I found Pacman's Change Gauge Script which looked like it would solve my problem, but I still ran into some issues with it. I put the \no_mp_display in the actor's note tags, which did hide the MP bar.  The TP bar was still hidden.  In the notes it says something about changing the displaying of the TP, but I do not understand scripting enough to understand what I'm doing wrong.

Even if I did get the TP bar to show, there's the issue with the MP bar still showing in the status screen for the characters that do no use MP at all.  Is there a way to get the TP bar to show instead of the MP bar in the status window for the few characters?

I would really love to use Zetu's Alternate MP but it also keeps giving me strange errors, and I've seen posts that the script needs to be heavily edited to make it work correctly. 

Thanks!

Sorry, sometimes it's confusing to know where exactly to post something.

Minor update. 

It is showing the TP bar when I do a BATTLE TEST from the TROOPS TAB in the DATABASE.

But it's not showing up in game.

Possibilities


1) You didn't save before you hit battle test, while you saved before playtest. Because of that, your battle test effectively don't have the changes loaded.


2) It's one of those scripts that doesn't work on battle test

From what I know, they are only shown if the character has skills that use MP or TP.

Can't say for sure.

No it does work on the test battle, it doesn't work when I try it in game.

Then there's something different about your game and the battle test...


Just to be sure, did you test on a new game or a loaded save?

A loaded save from before I added the script.  Which just made me realize that part of the error.  So I started a fresh game and now it works.  I should have know better since I had a very similar problem with another script like that before. 

So now part #2 of the problem.  How do I hide the MP bar for those that do not use MP (or better yet replace it with the TP bar) on the status screen?
