How to alter the amount of times a stat can increase/decrease

[JAD94]

Hey everyone, as you know in RPG Maker everytime someone uses a skill that either increases/decreases a target's stats, the maximum amount of increases/decreases is two. How can I alter this to perhaps change it from two repeated stat gains/losses? Thanks

For a single actor: $game_actors[id].add_param(pid, value)

For the party: $game_party.members.each { |actor| actor.add_param(pid, value)


where pid can be: 0=MHP, 1=MMP, 2=ATK, 3=DEF, 4=MAT, 5=MDF, 6=AGI, 7=LUK

Thank you Kanax

But the method you are using, what exactly will it do?

 

[KanaX]

Your issue was that the max amount of increases/decreases is two, right? If you call that script call you can set the increase/decrease as you like.

single actor: $game_actors[1].add_param(1, 400) Actor 1 will have a MMP increase by 400

single actor: $game_actors[1].add_param(2, -300) Actor 1 will have a ATK decrease by 300

Unless I misunderstood your question.

Ok then yes perfect! If I call these scripts at any point in the game would it save for the rest of the game? Or would I have to keep calling it?

That I don't know Since you know the nature of my game, you might guess that I'm completely clueless when it comes to skills and parameters

Parameter changes are permanent.

Are you perhaps talking about the buff/debuff level? Only that is limited to two times, direct parameter changes can be done as often as you want and are (as said above) permanent.

Yes there we go! I couldn't figure out the direct name. I'm talking specifically about the buff/debuffs!

@Kanax

Thank you

I didn't know what the correct terminology was, I was referring more so about the buffs and debuffs

 

[JAD94]

Ok I found it, it was in the script "Game_Battler". Somewhere near the middle it allows you to change the max for buffs and debuffs

Thank you everyone for your input
