Yanfly Life Steal

[emelian65]

Hello, so I was actually waiting for a response of Yanflñy, but it seems they have decided that I should ak in here so, this is the Plug-In.


Yanfly Life Steal


This plugin has the next parametres to set on it.





Which are supposed to enable a character to gain more HP than the damage dealt and recieve HP damage in certain cirtumstances instead of draining it.


I made this simple code


<Custom HP Life Steal Rate>
if (target.isStateAffected(4))
rate = 1.5;
else
rate = 0.5;
</Custom HP Life Steal Rate>


It does not pops up the cnsole, which with Yanfly newest update could mean that there is something wrong in the code, but like I said it doesn't seems to be the case


This code sorta works, the user always drains 50% of damage dealt, but when the enemy is affected by state 4 the user only drains the 100% amount of damage dealt and not the 150% of damage dealt, according to Yanfly help notes the rate should be in percentile which I belive I'm doin correctly(if not the 0.5 rate would not work)


I decide to test the skill with this code that again come in the plugin itself. Obviously I test each code individually just in case anyone was wondering.


<HP Life Steal: 50%>

<HP Life Steal: 150%>

<HP Life Steal: -50%>


The first one work perfectly, the second one only drains the damage dealt and not the 50% more, and the last one deals damage but the user doesn't recive any damage.


I asked Yanfly if their plugin actually allows the overheal and negative healing but they have not answer me yet, and as i don't have enough Javascript knowledge to actually know what to look for in the code I decide to post it here.


So in the end after all this I have two questions.


1.- Am I the one doing something wrong? If so, how do I correct it.?


2.-Is it soemthing to do witht he plug-in itself? If so what should I do to get the desired effect.


And that should be all, thnak you so muhc for your time.

I would just scrap this gimmick plugin and instead just use skill core to make your life gains when dealing damage.


<After Eval>


if (target.isStateAffected(4)) {


user.gainHp(Math.floor(value * 1.5)) 


else {


user.gainHp(Math.floor(value * 0.5)) 


}


}


</After Eval>

I see so instead of using the plugin I should use an after eval code...


Does this means th eplugin doens't actually work in the way I was wanting it to work?


what a dissapointment tough...


Have to alter the code btw as you add some extra brakets in there, but aside from that it works, so.


Thank you.


Can i ask another thing.


How should i do this.


<Pre-Damage Eval>
if (target.isActor) {
value * 0.25
} else {
value
}
</Pre-Damage Eval>




The skill can target allies and foes,but if the target is anally I want it to do less damage. I'm using the above code but the damage is ot affected at all, ow should I edit it?

 

[lolshtar]

To change the damage you have to switch to damage formula which completely replace your current formula at the top.


<Damage Formula>


if (target.isActor) {


value = X }


if (target.isEnemy) {


value = X }


</Damage Formula>

@lolshtar Thank you so much for this, this answers all my questions regarding this seemingly useless plug-in...


So how can I ask for this to be closed?
