Lecode Tactical Battle System 0.77.2B

[Lecode]

We're close to 0.7 guys!

This looks awesome. I played the demo and I’m really impressed. Has anyone finished a project with this or has anyone made decent progress? I would love to play it!

Not yet, as far as I know. In the ToU I asked to contact me if LeTBS is going to be used on a serious/commercial project. So far the ones who contacted me have still their projects under work.
But personally I'd really like to make a serious RPG game with it. Ultimately I'm going to make it.

TBS Events: Simply doesn’t work for me. Am I missing something? (I also tried it out with different trigger types.)

I don't really have the energy right now to see what's wrong in your setup. As far as I know TBS events work well on the latest demo. So it's likely that something is wrong in your setup. Note that the next version is centered on eventing so you might be higly interested.

Actors walk UNDER dead enemies instead of OVER them.

Noted. But, I suppose you used a tag or an option to allow actors to walk over dead battlers, isn't it ?

Would the side effects system be making an appearance in this iteration?

Can we enlarge the scale of each grid? Like in this video, he use the engine's default 48px grid, but if my project resolution is higher, and requires the grids have to be 64px, 96px or more, can this plugin handle that? (Sorry if my question is silly cause i haven't had time to look into this plugin that much)

 

[Isabella Ava]

i am really curious, can we make game similar to Final fantasy tactic with Lecode Tactic system?
Some command like "Jump" , "Steal" , "Aim Leg" , "Aim Arm" , "Frog" , "Dual Sword" , "Confusion" ..

@phamtruong1992
Yes you can!
This plugin is fully compatible with shaz change tile size plugin.

@Isabella Ava
You can use custom commands for some characters, look at Angela Le_TBS commands (in the editor) you can add as many commands you want.
So for Jump you can add a skill which work like Duran's thunder strike.

Some parts of it. Not the full functionality but you will be able to do some cool affects with eventing and conditional triggering.
For example you can call a common event every time Harold ends its turn, and force an action.
I also added many plugin commands for more freedom and customized effects.

Hey everyone. I just wanted to say this battle plug in is EXACTLY what I've been looking for!! I'm incredibly excited to use it, however, I'm terrible at coding, and very, very new to rpgmaker MV, so I'm having a lot of trouble getting it to work. Everything that I’ve done so far is;

1. Copied over all the required plug ins, and put them in order.
2. Copied over all the img files.
3. Made a battle map with the 249 region restrictions.
4. Added two <enemy cell> to it.
5. Added two <actor cell> to it.
6. Copied over the party member notetags for both of my current party members;
Main;
<letbs>
use_character
auto_turn_order_face
auto_status_sprite
move_points: 4
has_no_corpse
</letbs>

Second character;
<letbs>
use_character
auto_turn_order_face
auto_status_sprite
move_points: 3
has_no_corpse
</letbs>
7. Made a 'bat' enemy, and copied the notetags for the bat from the demo file. I then made a troop with it in there.
8. Copied over the 'start battle' sequence transition (including enabling LBS via plug in command etc) from the crystal in the demo, making sure to use a correct teleport location onto the battle map and ememy processing (I loaded the troop with the bat and the notetags.)

Now, whenever I transition to battle I'm getting the message;

TypeError
Undefined is not a function

I realise I’m probably missing something very simple, but I’ve tried consulting the documentation, and while I understood some of it, a lot of it doesn’t make any sense to me what-so-ever.

I would highly appreciate any help in getting this up and running, even to a basic level. I'm overflowing with ideas for story, but I've been waiting for the correct battle plug in before I really sank my teeth into a project, and this is exactly what I wanted. So thank you Lecode, I'll be signing up to be a patron very soon!

@RPGSteve : Show me your logs. Open the console once the game starts by pressing F8 and tell me what the log says.

Could be a number of things, but have you copied over all the animations to your project?

There are several additional animations in the demo that are not included in with a new project that are needed for the plugin(s) to execute successfully. A couple of these animations are required at the start of the battle. You could customize the config file, but its probably easier to just copy over the animations initially.

 

[RPGSteve]

@mojoaa13 I did indeed copy those over

@Lecode Here you go. I realised I was missing a few of your plug ins (I only had one of the rhyme map ones etc) I doubled checked this time, and I have them all, now this is the error;

Looks like skill animation error
Screen focus animations always throw this error.
You'll need to change these to Center or Feet or Head.
(For now until Lecode fixes this.)

 

[RPGSteve]

Ok great, thank you. The issue was poison bite was trying to use a skill animation I had in a different slot. I now have it semi-working. Thank you for the help

Iiinteresting. I like the sound of that. Will the complete version allow us to fluidly customize our own passives like before? If so, I await eagerly

 

[Lecode]

@moldy : Well, you'll be able to attach common events to battlers, equipment, and states so basically you'll be able to create passives just like in the original plugin.

 

[Xelion]

Hi, I've been lurking around for some time, specially on this thread because this plugin's awesome.
I'm testing it right now and I've found an error:

If you rename a character, the plugin will look for a file named as his new name. I didn't find any tag to force it to have a fixed name. You could add something similar to "character_name: string" for that.
What I mean is:
-Character is named Xelion and I'm using a custom status sprite which should be Xelion.png.
-Everything works fine, but now I use the Name Input Processing and rename him as Xelionci, so now in battle the game will look for a Xelionci.png instead, crashing the game.
-Solution would be to have a tag to fix the status sprite name. For example, to Character1.png

This was probably mentioned before and you may already be considering it but in case you aren't:
A nice feature for next updates would be to be able to see the enemies' and parties' stats in battle and also attack preview window before acting like in Fire Emblem, FF Tactics (showing how much damage and the % of success of the chosen action, your and the victim's HP and maybe other relevant data).

Thanks for making this plugin Lecode, it's really good!

 

[mojoaa13]

@Xelion You should be able to use the following to do what you want.

• sprite_name: string
  Set the battler's filename. By default it's equal to his name in the database.
  
• sprite_config: config_id
  Set the battler sprite configuration id.

Look at the Great Mago enemy in the demo for usage examples.

That worked like charm, thanks! Should have looked at the demo instead of trying it in my project =)

 

[mojoaa13]

I'm using larger battlers and I'm noticing that the perspectives are wrong. Battlers that should appear underneath are not. Any thoughts why?

Spoiler: The blue battle should appear underneath the red devil battler

Spoiler: The skull and bone should appear below the blue battler

 

[swickster]

I set up a simple battle, one battler, one enemy. I'm getting "undefined is not a function.

Edit: Nvm I'm an idiot I figured it out.
