Hi ladies and gents!

So, I have some questions regarding some of Yanfly's scripts. I will put a link to all the scripts further down below in case you need reference.

I need some help regarding if It's possible to call some script calls in order to change the functions of various settings outside the script.

The thing is that I'm a bit split with how I want my battle screen to flow. If I change it to one setting I feel like It's a bit too slow, and if I change it to a faster setting I feel like newbies to the game will have a hard time keeping track of things. So what I want to do is to combine them both, and set a preference depending on the player's choice.

First of, I will add a snippet of the first script that I want this to work with: 

Yanfly Core Engine

Link to script

    #=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    # - Adjust Animation Speed -

    #=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    # By default, the animation speed played in battles operates at 15 FPS

    # (frames per second). For those who would like to speed it up, change this

    # constant to one of these values:

    #   RATE   Speed

    #     4      15 fps

    #     3      20 fps

    #     2      30 fps

    #     1      60 fps

    #=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    ANIMATION_RATE = 2
As you can see, this will change the speed of the animations.

Yanfly Battle Engine:

Link to script



    #=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    # - General Battle Settings -

    #=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    # These settings are adjusted for the overall battle system. These are

    # various miscellaneous options to adjust. Each of the settings below will

    # explain what they do. Change default enemy battle animations here, too.

    #=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    BLINK_EFFECTS      = false  # Blink sprite when damaged?

    FLASH_WHITE_EFFECT = true   # Flash enemy white when it starts an attack.

    SCREEN_SHAKE       = false  # Shake screen in battle?

    SKIP_PARTY_COMMAND = true   # Skips the Fight/Escape menu.

    AUTO_FAST          = false   # Causes message windows to not wait.

    ENEMY_ATK_ANI      = 36     # Sets default attack animation for enemies.



 

This will change the skill window to not wait for the animation.

 

 

Now this is where the thing I have in mind comes to place:

 

Yanfly system options:

Link to script:


    CUSTOM_VARIABLES ={

    # -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    # :variable   => [switch, Name, Colour1, Colour2, Min, Max,

    #                 Help Window Description

    #                ], # Do not remove this.

    # -------------------------------------------------------------------------

      :variable_1 => [ 1, "Custom Variable 1", 9, 1, -100, 100,

                      "Help description used for custom variable 1."],

 

-

 



 

With this you can set your own variables to be part of the system options screen, and I want to see if there's a way to set the previous options I listed above into this system options screen.

 

For example; Have a variable set 1-3 that will change the animation speed from Slow - Default - Fast (15fps, 30fps, 60fps) with script calls.

 

Or use a switch ON and OFF that will change the Auto fast to off and on.

 

Would something like this be possible, and if so can you lead me in the right direction?

 

It would solve a lot for me since It would benefit new players - Be able to read what some of the enemies skills do. And Seasoned players (or people that wants to finish battles quicker) with a faster animation rate and a skill message window that doesn't wait for the skill.

 

I hope this is possible, and I hope It's not too much work for anyone that might be able to help me with this.

 

Thanks!

 

Best Regards!
