MV change Enemy Sprite Priority during YEP action sequences?

[catwizard69]

I'm using Yanfly's action sequences as well as Yanfly's animated enemies. I'm trying to get the enemy Sprite to take priority over the actor when it attacks, since it looks weird when the enemy sprite goes under the actor when it goes to attack. Does anyone know of a command for that action sequences I can toggle which has priority?

Using YEP Battle Engine Core?

Look under the 5th topic: "Sideview"

Under there is an option regarding Priority.

Yes, I am, but I am looking for a way to change that depending on who's attacking who.

Did you try the different priority options?

 

[catwizard69]

I did, and all options seem to only give one side priority at all times.

Maybe you need to request a plugin.

No idea how to change it manually in an action sequence but if you want always attacker on top of everything.

Code:
Spriteset_Battle.prototype.battleFieldDepthCompare = function(a, b) {
var priority = BattleManager.getSpritePriority();
if (a._battler && b._battler) {
if (!$gameSwitches.value(1)) {
if (a._battler.isActor() && b._battler.isEnemy()) return 1;
if (a._battler.isEnemy() && b._battler.isActor()) return -1;
} else {
if (a._battler.isActor() && b._battler.isEnemy()) return -1;
if (a._battler.isEnemy() && b._battler.isActor()) return 1;
}
}
if (a.z < b.z) return -1;
if (a.z > b.z) return 1;
if (a.y < b.y) return -1;
if (a.y > b.y) return 1;
return 0;
};
and run a check at beginning of every skill for the switch.

if user.isEnemy()
CHANGE SWITCH 1: on
else
CHANGE SWITCH 1: off
end

Put it below battle engine core.
Battle engine core also without said plugin lets you choose between actors or enemy on top or normal which is only based off position, I think it defaults to actors on top, so try switching to 0 first and see if that is better in side view sprite priority.
