I'm using Visustella Action Sequence as I also need to call a common event before the animation of the spell.
This is the action sequence of the spell in question:

The problem is that using this action sequence makes all 4 hits happen all at once, which doesn't remotely look as good as them hitting the enemy side one by one (= what would happen without the action sequence).

Any clue what I could change so that all 4 hits occur one by one?

You could take the "4 random enemies" out of the skill's scope in the database and get random targets and use additional "action effect" commands within the action sequence.

Action Animation shows the animation, Action Effect applies the damage/effects. In your screenshot it looks like Action Effect is set to "all targets", which would explain what you're seeing.

Is there an Action Effect: "next target" option? (Or perhaps "current target", it depends how "next target" in the Action Animation command works.) I think that's what Turan is suggesting: 1 Action Effect command per target, with an Action Animation for each one if you want that.

You have a line that says "action effect" in your action sequence. That command is what does damage against all the targets.

If you change the scope of the skill to only have one target, then using "action effect" will damage that one target. You then manually change to another target and use "action effect" again.

You might need to look up Arthran's extension for action sequence to manually determine a random target.

This could probably be an entire thread, but it’s really interesting how replaying a game several years later can change how you relate to a character. I think Tidus from FFX got such a bad rap. I getchu. Completely different reaction as an adult now.
As you see, I still enjoy writing tutorials. Is there anything specific you want to see? (I know mapping and editing/resource making is usually popular, but those are very broad topics)
Well, I wanted to expand player battlers visually and now have 3 sheets and counting for each of my players party.
1. Regular sheet
2. The character has turned stone sheet.
3. Using potions sheet.

Technically the main hero has 4 since he starts with a wooden sword, and I felt that the battler should reflect that until he gets a metal one.

Right back to the RM game dev grind in about 15 minutes. :LZSexcite:
Days ago I gave someone the sage advice not to steer away from your main project or take up another one to abandon the first. After figuring a way that would save me years of development, I am forced to redo a lot of stuff on my own turf, near to remake half of what I have already made.
Somewhere down the line I must have crossed paths with bad karma.
