RPG Maker Forums

Hey all, I'm super new to this. So I don't know if what I'm trying to do will be doable using in-game variables or if it will need a script ... I'm using RPG Maker MV and the YEP Battle Engine Core (if that's relevant).

I'm hoping to have one character that:

- Starts every fight with 0 MP
- Drains MP from enemies using drain skills
- Casts spells that cost all of his current MP
- Those spells deal damage that is (base damage * proportion of MP gauge he had stored when using attack). So casting the
same spell will deal a lot more damage if he had saved up 70% of his max MP as opposed to 30%.

I've figured out how to do the MP drain using Yanfly's LifeSteal plug-in, and I figured out how to set the skill's MP cost to be the character's current MP. Getting the character to start with 0 MP and having the skill do proportional damage ... not so much.


Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I apologize if this is an obvious set-up that I'm just too novice to know lol

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
