Yanfly's skill reqs: custom show eval question

[Dirge]

Hi!

I'm trying to set up a custom show eval to have a skill only appear if a particular item, say "Pistol", is equipped in the left hand.

<Custom Show Eval>

if ($game_actors[1].equips.include?($data_weapons[6]) false)) {

visible = true;

} else {

visible = false;

}

</Custom Show Eval>

But... I THINK that will show it if it's equipped in either hand, right? And only on actor 1?

Is there a way to tweak this so it shows for any actor who has weapon 6 equipped in the left hand only? (I'm going to make a separate one checking for right hand)

if (user._equips[1].itemId == 6) {
visible = true
}else {
visible = false
}
explanation: If user's second equip slot contains item with ID 6, it is visible.

How is that that you're so awesome?! Man, you rock. THANK YOU.

 

[Poryg]

I'm not so awesome. I just once wanted to create an item that was equippable only if other items were equipped... Eventually found the solution, however then I realized that I couldn't force the player to not being able to unequip the other items before unequipping this one, so had to work it out differently in the end...

Actually, I have an add-on to this question: How would I go about setting it up so that the skill was only visible if the user had two specific items equipped? Like this?

if (user._equips[1].itemId == 6 && user._equips[0].itemId == 7) {
visible = true
}else {
visible = false
}

 

[Poryg]

yup, exactly.

@Poryg I hate to drag you back here... but I just got around to actually testing this, and it's not working. With:

<custom show eval>

if (user._equips[0].itemId == 6) {

visible = true;

} else {

visible = false;

}

</custom show eval>

The skill isn't appearing when I have weapon ID 6 equipped in my first slot. (Doesn't work with equips[1] and the second slot either). If I remove the custom show eval, the skill appears as normal. I tried swapping "itemId" for "weaponId" in case it was trying to read for an "item" type item in the database, but that didn't work either.

 

[Poryg]

Sorry, I typed before I thought. I checked it now to be 100% sure.

user._equips[0]._item._itemId == 6 is correct. I forgot the _item thing.
Next time if you want to check for yourself, launch the game, press f8 to bring the console and use $gameActors.actor(actorId), it will sghow you everything about the actor.

Yeah, I learned about the console last night - I actually found the community discord and was in there getting some help, a kind soul actually came up with some JS that worked. Still haven't managed to get the augment-variable thing working though, unfortunately, kept running into roadblocks. I'm tempted to reach out to Yanfly himself and see what he suggests..
