RMMZ Plugin to make skills have more than two required weapons

[bookco]

In my current project, magic users need to hold an arcane focus in one of their weapon slots in order to cast spells. I'd like to offer a variety of these, possibly up to ten: a spellbook, an orb, a wand, a staff, a rod, a small or large crystal, a geode, a grimoire (yes I know that's a spellbook but I'd differentiate the two on account of a grimoire's sentient nature), and a diamond. It would be nice to have a plugin where the required weapons for a skill could be modified via notetag. Just a thought. Otherwise I'll have to duplicate magic five times over in the database.

As an aside, it would be *really* rad if there could be an *armor* prerequisite for a skill.

Have you Googled it? I know people have made this - probably for MV, but I can't think of any part of the involved functions that should be different between the versions.

Hey, look...I even answered it for MZ already

RMMZ - Have many different "required weapons" for a skill

but I'd like it to be an "OR". For instance, a strike that would be available if the character has equipped a knife OR a sword OR a saber. Or a rain of arrows if a bow OR a crossbow is equipped. Is this doable?

There's no equivalent function to see if a particular armor type is equipped, but you could do

user.armors().some(armor => armor.atypeId==x)

where x is the ID of the type you're looking for.

EDITED: So if I’m understanding correctly, with the Skills and States VS plugin I can type in the notes of a given skill:

<JS Skill Enable>
user.armors().some(armor => armor.atypeId==x || armor.atypeId==y || armor.atypeId==z)
</JS Skill Enable>

and it will make the skill dependent on x, y, or z, armor being equipped?

It will make it dependent on x, y, or z armor *type* being equipped. It could also be shortened a bit:

<JS Skill Enable>
user.armors().some(armor => [x, y, z].includes(armor.atypeId));
</JS Skill Enable>

Even better. I have my armor types finely differentiated already—they aren't "light, medium, heavy" differentiations, they denote what the armor is in general, with different armors falling into these categories separated by +0, +1, +2, +3 qualities and durability characteristics. Glad to know that work wasn't for nothing. Thanks for the abbreviated solution.

Yeah, that was an older post before I familiarized myself with JavaScript's array functions
