RMMZ Viz Boost Actions Change Max Storable BP mid game

[BeanCanDev]

Is this the right place for this? I'm not sure, but this is the best place I can think of. So I'll try give you a quick rundown:

I was using the VIizustella Boost Action plugin for a resource in my game, but I realized I can't change the Max number of points your able to store mid game.

The way I wanted to use it is that the party would only be able to store 2-3 points at the start, but would be able to increase the amount they could store as the game progresses through the use of an item I've given the working title of "Boost Fruit". But I realized I can't do that with that plugin.

Does anyone know how to do this, or am I going to need to ditch the idea completely?

Change

Game_BattlerBase.MAX_BOOST_POINTS_STORED

(note that this will not be undone if you change which save you're playing on or return to title/restart)

Thank you! The fact it stays between saves is kinda annoying, but something I'm sure can be fixed by keeping the Max BP stored in a variable, then calling that variable when a save is loaded. So it looks like I have a solution!

Hi again, I had some sleep and realized I have no idea how to change Game_BattlerBase.MAX_BOOST_POINTS_STORED. I'm pretty new to js, so I'm sorry if I'm being dumb about something.

You'd literally just do, in a script command

Game_BattlerBase.MAX_BOOST_POINTS_STORED = [newvalue]

where newvalue is the number of points you'd like to change it to.

Thank you!

Thank you!

To get around the proviso of it persisting the new value through save files/plays in the same session, you could make a parallel process common event that sets the max points to the value of a variable.

I'm using Galv's auto common event plugin, so I can just run the script automatically whenever the game loads. And Using Viz Core, I can then run a common event to set then value to default. Unless theres something that will cause issues I think it might work?
