Passive Skills

[CathyRina]

Let's be honest, that's not really an add-on.

Why not? It's basically just giving skills pre-requisites and visualizing it in form of branches.
You already have SP gain, SP spend and Passive-mechanics. Not that much missing from a functional Skill Tree.

I investigated, they do actually work together but when used together but there's a lag until the next time the actor is refreshed.

  Scene_Skill.prototype.useItem = function() {
    if (this.item() && this.item().stypeId == Fomar.PassiveSkills.passiveSkillTypeId) {
      if (this.actor()._passiveSkills.includes(this.item().id)) {
        this.actor()._passiveSkills.remove(this.item().id);
      } else {
        this.actor()._passiveSkills.push(this.item().id);
      }
      this._statusWindow.refresh();
      this._itemWindow.refresh();
      this.actor().refresh(); // new line for Visu Core
    } else {
      Fomar.PassiveSkills.Scene_Skill_useItem.call(this);
    }
  };

Should be enough to fix it. Either stick it in a new plugin or put it at the bottom of my plugin.

Plugin worked correctly.
Thank you Fomar0153!

New version released. It includes the new line of code I added for the VisuStella menus and some other compatibility improvements.

First off, great plugin! But I found a weird interaction between this plugin and your Equipment Skills plugin:
When using equipment to learn a passive skill you can activate it as normal. Now, if you activate the skill, and remove the equipment before completely learning it, you can't deactivate the passive skill. It's still in effect, and the PP are still consumed.
I made a short clip for this problem, I hope it helps illustrate what I mean.

Sorry took a bit longer than I'd hoped.

No worries, glad you could take a look at all!

Is there a way to force equip a skill? For example, if I start with a character with 10pp and 2 passive skills, to have them already equipped by default.

Thanks!


Edit:
Okay... figured it out without having any idea lol but it seems to be working.
In case anyone needs it:
Script call:
$gameActors.actor(id)._passiveSkills.push(skill id)

Will automatically equip indicated passive skill id to the respective actor id.
Skill has to be learned before though as If not, it will be equipped anyway and as you don't have it, it'll be invisible and won't be able to unequip from the menu.

I ran into a problem. If you have passive skill A add passive skill B, and you equip passive skill A then passive skill B. Then uneuip passive skill A, it doesn't refund the points after passive skill B is lost

Is there a way to refund the points if a skill is equiped and something happens to make it no longer exist?

Edit: after some testing, the state skill exists too..

sorry for being so lay. I would like the formula for the game to be: character level + character luck + agility / 4

but I can't configure the formula, could someone help me?

Are you using the most up to date version of this plugin? I thought I dealt with that already.

this._level + this.luk + this.agi / 4

I downloaded it a month ago

So you have 1.3 at a guess? Try updating the plugin.

ok. Now i'll be able to make something close to the xenoblade chronicles passive skill tree

this._level + this.luk + this.agi / 4

the calculation does not result in the correct value.
I think he is just dividing the value of AGI, and I would like him to divide by 4 the total sum of LEVEL + LUK + AGI

Hi Fomar, thank you for the great plugin and being so helpful with everyone.

I'm having an issue where whenever I try to 'buy' a skill, a window pops up displaying all the actors over most of the menu. Like so:



I assumed this might have been a design choice, though was uncertain what purpose it served. But in the clip you show at the top of the thread the window is clearly not appearing. In this image the Passive Skills plugin is the only one I have turned on, for the life of me I can't figure out what's causing it.

 

[Oddball]

I'm using the most up to date version now, and get this error at the start of battle when the script is on, with no other scripts on

Then it should go in parenthesis so it divides the total by 4.
(this._level + this.luk + this.agi) / 4

Xelion beat me to it, but (this._level + this.luk + this.agi) / 4

Update your plugin, this was fixed a while ago.

Use the original name of the plugin:
Fomar0153_PassiveSkills.js

Puzzling, I've gone through today and started fresh projects with the plugin in the dl link several times now, I'm assuming ver. 1.4 is the most current version?

I can't see it in the screenshot but I assume you have set the passive skills to the correct skill type?
If so, do you get this bug in a blank project with no other plugins while using version 1.4?

I created a skill type named 'passive' and matched the skill to it, so presumably yes. And I'm using a fresh project with no other plugins and this has been happening with both the unpatched & patched 1.4 versions.

BTW, I'm been trying to edit it myself and had no luck, but any chance we can get a plugin that's just the 'Add Passive Skill Type in Menu' function?

thank u guys, works perfect!
