I was wondering if anybody had a way to create a state called Astra. Astra is a state that prevents the next debuff from hitting, but only once. So if a character is under the effects of Astra, and an enemy tries to blind him, Astra will cancel out the blind, and then go away itself.

I have browsed over the state scripts, and thought that I found a way to do it using Deriru's statuses, using the Null Element feature. I created a new element called debuff. I then created a status named Astra, that would prevent against element 19 (the debuff element). However, when my character is under the Astra effect, he can still be blinded, or poisoned.

Does anyone have any idea how to accomplish this?

Edit: Thanks for the Move BigEd! Now that it's in the script requests, I would like to thank any scripters in advance!

I'm going to go ahead and move this to the Script Request forum for you, but I'll leave a link here. It should be pretty simple; you just need to check for that state before ever applying a debuff (you will need to configure which states are considered debuffs of course.) I would do it but, you know, I'm at work.

As Ed said, easy-peasy...

Spoiler:

CODE

class RPG::State
  
  def astra?
    self.note.scan(/<astra>/i){
    return true}
    return false
  end
  
  def nastra?
    self.note.scan(/<nastra>/i){
    return true}
    return false
  end
  
end

class Game_Battler
  
  def has_astra?
    for state in states
      return true if state.astra?
    end
  end
  
  alias z15_add_state add_state
  def add_state(state_id)
    state = $data_states[state_id]
    return if state == nil
    return if state_ignore?(state_id)
    unless state_offset?(state_id)
      if self.has_astra? and state.nastra?
        debuff_astra
        return
      end
    end
    z15_add_state(state_id)
  end
  
  def debuff_astra
    for state in self.states
      if state.astra?
        @states.delete(state.id)
        return
      end
    end
  end
  
end

Just add <astra> to the state you want to be considered Astra, and <nastra> to the states you want Astra to cancel.

Works perfectly! Thanks for your help!

Ahh, I just love it when the community comes together like this. Puts me in the mood for s'mores and Kumbaya.

Hello!

Sorry for reviving the topic, but I was testing the script and unfortunately it didn't work properly.

I tested in the RMVX's Default Battle System, but every state that is marked with <nastra> tag is never applied, regardless of the character is or isn't protected with Astra.

This happened to someone else? Can someone help me?

Thanks!
