I've been working on a game in RPG Maker VX Ace, and I recently came across Dekita's battle weather effects script -- very cool! The script works exactly as it says it should; if I have some weather set on a map and then begin a battle, the weather effect continues in the battle. However, I was wondering if there is a way to use it for a slightly different purpose.


 


I would like to create a skill called "hail" which changes the weather to snowing and puts a state on participants in a battle. I'm able to change the weather to snow via a common event with the script call:


 


$game_map.screen.change_weathersnow, 9, 0)


 


Unfortunately when I cast the skill, the weather in the battle does not update. I know that the map's weather has changed however, because after completing the battle it is snowing on the map. Is there a way to force the script to re-check the map's weather partway through a battle so that it can be updated?


 


I've attached the version of the script that I found online.


 


Thanks!
