Need Help with Script Call

[bcapek]

So I'm no scripter, and even though I've tried to mess with this for an hour I'm out of ideas. Basically I'm using Fomar's AP System II script, but with a twist. I'm trying to have an NPC vendor that will sell passive skills in exchange for AP, and I have no idea how to reference the amount of AP each individual character has. The closest I've gotten is $game_actors[x].ap, which doesn't throw any errors but doesn't give accurate amounts. Here is my method, just in case I'm going about it wrong: I'm trying to set a variable for each actor that is equal to that character's total Ap gained. (If I manage that I can come up with a way to keep track of a running total of AP available, I'm not worried about that.) But setting a variable to $game_actors[1].ap for example keeps returning 0 no matter how many battles are fought. any help would be appreciated. here is the script:

text = sprintf(Vocab:btainExp, $game_troop.exp_total)
$game_message.add('\.' + text)
end
if $game_troop.ap_total > 0
text = sprintf(Vocab:btainAp, $game_troop.ap_total)
$game_message.add('\.' + text)
end
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------

actor.gain_exp($game_troop.exp_total)
end
wait_for_message
$game_party.all_members.each do |actor|
actor.gain_ap($game_troop.ap_total)
end
wait_for_message
end
end

class Game_Troop < Game_Unit
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● New Method ap_total
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def ap_total
dead_members.inject(0) {|r, enemy| r += enemy.ap }
end
end

class Game_Enemy < Game_Battler
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● New Method ap_total
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def ap
if enemy.note =~ //i
return $1.to_i
else
return 0
end
end
end

I'm also using a small snippet to make it compatible with a yanfly script, so here's that in case it's relevant:

module Vocab
ObtainAp = "+%sAP"
end

module BattleManager
def self.display_exp
SceneManager.scene.show_victory_display_exp
actor = $game_party.random_target
@victory_actor = actor
set_victory_text(@victory_actor, :win)
end
def self.gain_exp
$game_party.all_members.each do |actor|
temp_actor = Marshal.load(Marshal.dump(actor))
actor.gain_exp($game_troop.exp_total)
actor.gain_ap($game_troop.ap_total)
next if actor.level == temp_actor.level
SceneManager.scene.show_victory_level_up(actor, temp_actor)
set_victory_text(actor, :level)
wait_for_message
end
end
end

class Window_VictoryEXP_Back < Window_Selectable
alias ap_draw_jp_gain draw_jp_gain
def draw_jp_gain(actor, rect)
ap_draw_jp_gain(actor, rect)
dw = rect.width - (rect.width - [rect.width, 96].min) / 2
dy = rect.y + line_height * 4 + 96
dy += line_height if $imported["YEA-JPManager"]
text = sprintf(Vocab:btainAp, $game_troop.ap_total)
contents.font.size = YEA::VICTORY_AFTERMATH::FONTSIZE_EXP
change_color(power_up_color)
draw_text(rect.x, dy, dw, line_height, text, 2)
end
end

thanks ahead of time for any help.

I've moved this thread to RGSSx Script Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

Did you populate your gain_ap method?

And did you insert the "your code goes here"?

Because you would need to insert something like this :

class Game_Actor < Game_Battler attr_accessor :ap def gain_ap(ap) (@ap ||= 0) += ap endend in the new script slot below both of the above.Note that the code above will crash if actor's AP is 0
