No Game Over Script

[--DanCar--]

I was looking for a "no game over" script", I've made a search and I've found one here:

https://dayjavoogames.wordpress.com/2013/07/20/vxa-no-gameover-script-ver-1-0/

the script is actually here:

http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=UXXBvVYH

I tried and It works fine, but the script is like this: after the defeat  you have two options, or you return to the starting point or you return to the last "recovery all" point.

The second option is good for big maps, my map instead is tiny.

I would like to deactive (maybe with #) the part where the script send party to the last "recovery all" point, but no idea which part is.

Any help, please?

Deactivate these three lines:

    $game_player.heal_x = $game_player.x    $game_player.heal_y = $game_player.y    $game_player.heal_map = $game_map.map_id
like this:

    #$game_player.heal_x = $game_player.x    #$game_player.heal_y = $game_player.y    #$game_player.heal_map = $game_map.map_id

Lines 45, 46 and 47.

This way it will always go back to the starting point, and you can always re-activate these three lines later if you want.

If you think you will never want to re-activate it, I can make this script much smaller, removing a lot of unnecessary stuff.

Try commenting out lines 45 - 47.

Your party will return to the starting point after their defeat in battle.

Honestly, if you event your game properly, you won't need to disable game overs.

Thanks (also you Susan).

Yes, I just need  the party retun to the "starting point" and then pop up two short messages, something like "you can't win against us " and "you have returned back" . with relative icon faces.

This would be perfect.

Also with the (very hated) random battles?

Well, the script doesn't really disable game overs.

You can still get a game over by eventing it.

The script just helps to send characters back to the starting point or a 'recovery' spot after their defeat in battle.

Granted, it can be evented, but the script just makes the whole thing easier. ^^

Random encounters are decided from Troops. You can set events for those troops.

It will activate an switch when you are defeated in battle.

You can choose the switch ID here:

SWITCH_ID = 1

Alternatively you can use this: https://grimoirecastle.wordpress.com/rgss3-scripts/utility-scripts/game-over-common-event/

That's the one I use.

This seems like a better option, you can ignore the script I posted:

For the moment I tried to add # to line 45-47 and, in a new game, after a defeat the party go straight to the starting point.

I would like to add 2 text commands exactly after the party pop up on the "start tile", always in the script by Day Ja Voo Games, but no clue where and how, aside the obvious line:

@>Text:'uglyicon',0,Normal, Bottom

About Archeia post,

It's beyond my (embarassing) low level of knowledge: I presume I must put it in the database of common events and then adding on map an event like:

$game_system.game_over_event_id "= x

$game_system.game_over_event_id "= x   

Just add that script to your game, replacing the one you've been using.

Then create a common event in the database with anything you want to happen when the player is defeated in battle (and also teleport it to the initial position).

Finally, change this line:

@game_over_event_id = 1Replacing the number one by the number of the common event you just created.

That way, when you get defeated in battle, that common event will run and anything you add to it will happen.

I've done what suggested by Hudell, and everything is ok.

Thanks to all.

I think we can close the thread.
