How to change MP Regen Value

[KazukiT]

I was wondering how would I change my MP Regen from percents (default in MV) to a certain value. For example I want a certain state to regen 3 MP each turn that state is active. If this is something that requires a plugin feel free to move this elsewhere.

You sure can! You'll need this: http://yanfly.moe/2015/12/25/yep-50-buffs-states-core/

Slap this code into your STATE notetag box and tweak as necessary:

<Custom Regenerate Effect>
var mpheal = (ENTER FORMULA HERE);
user.gainMp(+mpheal );
user.startDamagePopup();
user.clearResult();
</Custom Regenerate Effect>

Alternatively, you could use this plugin, which does it in a much simpler way, but you have way less control over what you can do with your states:

'Tech Support' is for when you can't get the engine to run. "How do I...?" (implementation) questions belong in the support forum for the engine you are using. As you are in effect asking for a script/plugin, that goes in the appropriate Request forum.

I am not quite familiar with Javascript so could you put in an example for the code you quoted. Also I didn't see anything in the "Damage over time" plugin about MP regen.

Hmmmm, you're right, I could have sworn the 2nd one allowed MP regen as well. Oops.
Well, I guess we'll work with the first one then!
I will break down each step for you and explain what it's doing in orange font.

<Custom Regenerate Effect>
var = This is creating a "variable" and attaching a number to it based off the formula.
In the (ENTER FORMULA HERE) spot, you could put in whatever you want, for example, if you wanted it to be a flat 5, just put a 5.

You can do more complex things in the formula as well, such as: Math.round(user.mmp * 0.03 + 5); which takes 3% of the user's Maxmp and adds +5 to it.
var mpheal = (ENTER FORMULA HERE);

This section here is what is actually healing the MP to the user. The stuff in the parenthesis is calling the "var" (variable) formula from above.
user.gainMp(+mpheal );

This starts the popup on the actor, that way the player can visually see that this actor got some MP.
user.startDamagePopup();

This clears the combat log (the little black box that says things like "Actor A took 5 damage!" etc)
user.clearResult();
</Custom Regenerate Effect>

I hope this helps.

Thanks for your help, I was able to understand and apply it to my game.

I have another question though is there a way to turn this effect off if an actor has a certain state?

I also wanted to ask do you have any experience with Yanfly's Steal and Snatch? I am having trouble with that too. I can provide a link to that thread: https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/yanfly-steal-and-snatch-problem.105780/

I apologize if I am asking alot of you.
