How To Create Knocked Down Status, and AOA

[dyzzythedemon]

Heya! I'm working on a persona-like, and I was wondering if anyone had figured out how to create the "knocked down" condition for enemies, and how to make it recognize when they're all knocked down and initiate a big finisher. I realize this is tricky coding and rpg-maker wise, and I'm using MZ, but I really wanna figure it out. This also probably necessitates figuring out how to give my enemies weaknesses to certain elements, which is something I'm also unfamiliar with.
TLDR I wanna make my game's battle system like persona, and would love any help people could give.

Have you tried Googling it? There have been kind of a bunch of posts about this

I've seen everything from event-driven solutions to how to use plugins for it to dedicated plugins.

For example:

Battle System - STB VisuStella MZ - Yanfly.moe Wiki

www.yanfly.moe

literally recreates the entire thing.

Typically google isn't helpful, so I didn't. My bad! Thanks for your help!
