so I asked about this a couple months ago to write the script and now I am having issues with it. Im trying to give the hero a certain number of stat modifiers per level up. but each level the hero only gets one of the item, and if you go up multiple levels you only get one of the item (not one per level)
this is my script

plotscript, levelup, begin
variable (level)
level := get hero level (me)
get item (138, ((level+2)/4)+1)
end

Try this script. I think it should do what you want.

If I used the characters name to define the character, couldnt I copy and paste the script and change the name of the script. since each character uses a different item.

Also, If I give the player the ability to rename the character can the character still be referred to by the name given to them in the editor.
ex. if I name a character Ken, and the player renames them Alex, can I still refer to the character as Ken in plotscripts?

disregard my last post. could you please try to make me one for three characters. Kenryoku, Suji, and Kokoro?

So I did as you said, best I could anyways... and set it as the instead of battle script. now I am not getting any of the item when I level up. Did I ruin the Script somehow... All i did was change the name of the variables so that they wouldnt interfere between characters



plotscript, instead of battle, formnum, begin
variable(before1, after1, difference1, a)

# Before the battle, record the level of the hero
before1 := get hero level(find hero(hero:kenryoku))

# Fight the battle
fight formation(formnum)

# After the battle check to see if the level has increased
after1 := get hero level(find hero(hero:kenryoku))

# If at least one level up has happened, give the modifier items for each level
difference1 := after1 -- before1
if (difference1 >= 1) then(
for(a, before1+1, after1) do(
get item (138, ((a+2)/4)+1)
)
)

variable(before2, after2, difference2, b)

# Before the battle, record the level of the hero
before2 := get hero level(find hero(hero:suji))

# Fight the battle
fight formation(formnum)

# After the battle check to see if the level has increased
after2 := get hero level(find hero(hero:suji))

# If at least one level up has happened, give the modifier items for each level
difference2 := after2 -- before2
if (difference2 >= 1) then(
for(b, before2+1, after2) do(
get item (138, ((b+2)/4)+1)
)
)

variable(before3, after3, difference3, c)

# Before the battle, record the level of the hero
before3 := get hero level(find hero(hero:kokoro))

# Fight the battle
fight formation(formnum)

# After the battle check to see if the level has increased
after3 := get hero level(find hero(hero:kokoro))

# If at least one level up has happened, give the modifier items for each level
difference3 := after3 -- before3
if (difference3 >= 1) then(
for(c, before3+1, after3) do(
get item (138, ((c+2)/4)+1)
)
)
end

The problem here is that you will fight the enemy formation 3 times.

Here is the same script re-organized so that there is only one "fight formation" command

has anyone ever told you that you are both a genius and a lifesaver. Thanks a ton. I have a simewhat related side question. when you start playing you are a floating hand, choosing your character, which we named choice hand. after choosing Kenryoku, and renaming him as you see fit, in the item menu (using items on a character) the hero is still referred to as choice hand. not a major issue, just kind of annoying

[gagekilmer]

its supposed to be an instead of battle script right? on every map it applies to? im still not getting any of the item

[Bob the Hamster]

Very glad to help :)

[gagekilmer]

I had already conquered that problem months ago... I made sure to add ken before getting rid of hand. I just double checked. There is only one party member, however (only in the items menu) he is still referred to as choice hand[/i]

Are you saying that the wrong hero name is used in the target picker in the items menu, but not in battle, or in the status, equip, spells or party/order menus?

Exactly, and the correct walkabout sprite shows up next to the name "choice hand" and the "kenryoku" (the correct hero) still learns the technique

[TMC]

OK, thanks. I found and fixed that bug.

so does that mean that I have to re-download beezlebufo to fix it for me?
