RMMV YEP Limited Used Skills

[CarpenterScr]

Is it possible to recharge a skill without using the Recover All default event?
It does work this way but I find it pretty restraining that there is not just a call to do it... without having to use Recover All??

There's almost definitely a way to do this via a script call, based on the way that notetags can directly change the value of a skill's remaining limited uses. However, since the script is not available to download for free, I can't help you figure it out. Look within the code for a script line that sets the uses for an individual skill (probably within the scripting that handles the <Custom Skill x Limited Uses> notetag) and play around with trying to replicate that in a script call, taking note that you may need to have a complete object reference like $gameActors.actor(1) call a method or property, rather than the keyword "this" or another internal reference that has already been defined using const/var.

There is something like this but I'm not sure I understand it well.

<Custom Skill name Limited Uses>
value += user.level;
</Custom Skill name Limited Uses>

The 'value' variable is the number of uses the user will gain for all Limited Use skills of skill x.


EDIT:
It probably has to do with this bit of code:

    for (var i = 0; i < notedata.length; i++) {
      var line = notedata[i];
      if (line.match(/<(?:LIMIT USES|LIMIT USE|LIMITED USE):[ ](\d+)>/i)) {
        obj.limitUses = parseInt(RegExp.$1);
        obj.isLimitedUse = true;
      } else if (line.match(/<(?:RECOVER ALL USES)>/i)) {
        obj.limitRecoverAllUses = true;
      } else if (line.match(/<(?:NOT RECOVER ALL USES)>/i)) {
        obj.limitRecoverAllUses = false;

or that one:

Game_BattlerBase.prototype.recoverAllLimitedSkillUses = function() {
    if (!this.isActor()) return;
    var length = this.skills().length;
    for (var i = 0; i < length; ++i) {
      var skill = this.skills()[i];
      if (!skill) continue;
    if (!this.isSkillLimitedUse(skill)) continue;
      if (skill.limitRecoverAllUses) this.setSkillLimitedUse(skill.id, 0);
    }
};

Sadly my scripting skills are not good enough to pull out the right script call for what I want.

My instinct from looking at this is that in order to recover a skill's uses in a script call, you would need to use the format:
[[battler reference]].setSkillLimitedUse([[skill id]], 0);

So for example, to fully restore Actor #1's uses for Skill #98 in the database, you'd write:
$gameActors.actor(1).setSkillLimitedUse(98, 0);

You can just replace the entire battler reference with "a" or "b" (for the user or target respectively) when using it in a skill formula, but you need the entire reference when using it in a script call.

I'm not totally sure whether the skill id reference is done correctly but I think it is. I'm also not sure whether the 0 is correct (I think it is based on the way Yanfly wrote it but I don't have the full context), or whether you need to replace it with the max number of charges the skill can have.
