RMMV return true or false if any affected State has a Note(meta)

[Dopan]

I want to make a Function where it checks if the Battler has any state affected that has the Note "<Speed_State>" or if thats required i would also use "<Speed_State:true>"

I tried several things ,for example :
( the battler has 2 States ,1state has the note the other state doesnt)
Example_1

    Game_Battler.prototype.hasSpeedStates = function() {
        this.states().some(function(state) {
            if (state.meta.Speed_State) {
                return true;
            } else {
                return false;
            } 
        });
    };

// this returns "undefined"

Example_2

    Game_Battler.prototype.hasSpeedStates = function() {
        for (var i = 0; i < this.states().length; i++) {
             if (this.states()[i].meta.Speed_State) {
                 return true;

             }
        }
    };
// this will return true but this way i cant set it to false ..
// if i add a similar Condition for "return false".. or if i use "else"
// .. the state that has the Note will make it true and
// the next state in line that doesnt have the note will set it to false..

I think i need to use the ".some(function(state) {" from Example_1 but i cant make it work correctly..

I am thankfull for any help

Right idea, just made a couple of little omissions~

1. You remembered to return true/false for each state, but forgot to return the result from the some function. Also you can just do "return meta" rather than "if meta true, return true, else return false".
   

   Game_Battler.prototype.hasSpeedStates = function() {
     return this.states().some(function(state) {
       return state.meta.Speed_State;
     });
   };

   
   
2. return ends a function, so you can just put a return false at the end:
   

   Game_Battler.prototype.hasSpeedStates = function() {
     for (var i = 0; i < this.states().length; i++) {
       if (this.states()[i].meta.Speed_State) {
         return true;
       }
     }
     return false;  // only reaches this if not return true earlier.
   };

They both do the same thing, use whichever you prefer~

Thank you again^^

I will use the Example 1

Game_Battler.prototype.hasSpeedStates = function() {
  return this.states().some(function(state) {
    return state.meta.Speed_State;
  });
};

( it looks shorter)
To be honest ,Most things i learn by "trial and error" & there a much things that i dont know because most Infos i got are only from this forum^^

So the Infos about 1. & 2. which you added are really helpfull to me.

You remembered to return true/false for each state, but forgot to return the result from the some function. Also you can just do "return meta" rather than "if meta true, return true, else return false".

return ends a function, so you can just put a return false at the end:

(that helped me more than just giving me the right Code, atleast i understand now,what was wrong^^)

->This will be reported as "solved". THX!
