Yanfly core + System options issue.

[Dark_Metamorphosis]

So I'm using the Yanfly System options script where I have made my own switches and variables for certain things, but there's a particular one I can't get running and I need some help. 


Inside the core script of Yanfly's there's a possibility to change the animation speed from default:15 to max 60 fps (I use 30 fps as the default animation speed here).


Now what I want to do is to make a custom variable that will let the player change the animation speed from the options menu, here's my complete setup of this:


Variable setup:

Common Event:

Now, I think I might use the wrong script call for changing the speed module for yanfly's core script. But I can't seem to figure it out when looking inside his script.


These are the lines I found about the animation rate:


  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # overwrite method: set_animation_rate
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def set_animation_rate
    @ani_rate = YEA::CORE::ANIMATION_RATE 




If anyone can find the proper script call, or if I have set this up in the wrong way I would be very thankful!


The scripts can be found here for reference:


Ace core: (For animation script call).


Ace System Options:  (For the varaible setup in System options menu).


Hope someone can aid me with this, thanks for your time!

Just taking a quick look at it, the main problem is it looks like you're trying to modify a constant value, which really should crash with an error. 


The reason you're not seeing a change is because the animation speed doesn't constantly look at that constant value, it copies it into a variable inside the instance of that class. Each animation has a copy of the speed. You'd have to update every animations @ani_speed variable to change their animation speed.


I haven't used ace in a while, and rarely dabbled when Yanfly scripts, so figuring that it is up to you.

So It's not possible to change it with a ordinary script call then?

You'd have to write a function that updates all sprites, but that may not be perfectly easy to do. My first guess would be to look into the sprite set classes to update some sprites.
