RMMV Is it possible to show a stats window in battle, like in NES Dragon Quest?

[DrBuni]

I don't mean showing the stats by going through a menu, I mean a static window showing the stats, though in my case I'd like it for both player and enemy alike. Now, nearly everything is possible if one is an experienced programmer, but that I am not. If this is something that would take some sort of severe re-writing of battle-related code, please feel free to shut down my idea, I sometimes take way too long to move on to a different idea.

By the way, I looked around and found this, which is interesting and defenitely a start. If someone can cook a plugin of sorts for me, I would be eternally grateful!

Here is a quick dirty mockup I made to make it easy to visualize how I would have it in this little project I am brainstorming. Thanks!

It's possible to do, but I believe you either would need to find an already made plugin or hire a freelancer (like myself) to do it for you.

Would you mind sharing your rates privately? Programming is never cheap so I might not be able to afford your service, but who knows.

@DrBuni if you wish to hire someone (paid) to do this, please post in the Classifieds section.
@CleanWater please don't offer to do work for hire outside of that section. If people post here, they are asking for something for free. I feel this is not the first time I've mentioned this to you.

 

[Sword_of_Dusk]

@Shaz To be fair, there was no offer of work given. OP was simply told they might have to hire a programmer to do the job.

If that's all you want you can do it with SRD HUDmaker.

I have used this plugin a fair bit to move around windows and such, but I wasn't aware I could make brand new windows (like Window_BattleStatus and such), because isn't that what I need? I figured since there aren't Window_EnemyStats and Window_PlayerStats or anything like that, some programming would be needed. With that being said, I will look into that plugin/tool once more.

I could help you.

I am all ears

I use orange hudmaker by... uhm... id have to check, but I think it was Huddel. But Im not sure ot works during battle.

Alternatively yanfly has a plugin that can show you the stats on skill. So it wont be on screen the whole time. Like the Scan skill in Final Fantasy.

there is also a youtube tutorial for it which might help you alot.

I am aware of that plugin, but thanks for pointing it out. It doesn't quite do what I am looking for, though.

Oh, thank you. I will give that a run.

If I am not asking too much, can any of you more folks more inclined to programming share what are the lines referring to the following stats for actors and enemy alike? I mean stuff like "$gameParty.leader().hp" which refers to the hp of the first actor in the party. Or should I make a new thread?

The stats are HP, MP, DEF, ATK, AGI/SPD and LCK. In the mockup I made, there is LV (level) as well, but since enemies don't have levels, I can give up on that bit. I am asking so I can try showing the aforementioned stats with the HUD Maker.

 

[JorgeMaker]

This might be useful for you:

$gameParty.leader(); //returns the first battle member, same as $gameParty.battleMembers()[0]
$gameParty.members(); //returns an array with all members
$gameParty.battleMembers(); //returns an array with all battle members

const actor = $gameParty.leader();

actor.level; //LEVEL
actor.hp;    //HP
actor.mp;    //MP
actor.atk;   //ATTACK
actor.def;   //DEFENCE
actor.agi;   //AGILITY
actor.luk;   //LUCK

SRD Window Upgrade does let you make a brand new window, I don't know if it works in battle or not, but you can try it out. But you can do what you want (display information) with HUDMaker, even if what you're making isn't a window.

The stats are HP, MP, DEF, ATK, AGI/SPD and LCK.

Aside from the chunk of code provided to you above, they're all listed when you mouse over the damage formula in a skill.

You just need to get the reference to what goes in front, e.g.

$gameTroop.members()[SceneManager._scene._enemyWindow._index]

should be a reference to the enemy you're currently highlighting.

In the mockup I made, there is LV (level) as well, but since enemies don't have levels, I can give up on that bit.

They do if you give it to them. There are a number of plugins, such as Yanfly's Enemy Levels, which provide this functionality.
