KMustSurvive VX

Introduction

When I played Breath of Fire II back in the days, I noticed that there was a village where fights were a bit different. There you had to rescue the villagers by not killing them but just the scorpions that controlled them. You were still able to kill the people but it was not recommended.

This scriptlet would let the battle script judge the end result of the battle without any external interference. This means that you will not be in a dire need to keep checking your enemies' current HP every single turn via event commands!

Script Calls

Ruby:
$game_troop.must_survive(EnemyIndex, MinimumHP%)
Ruby:
$game_troop.must_survive(EnemyIndex, MinimumHP%, MaximumHP%)

There no MaxHP% is just the same as 100% of its HP.

The Script

Ruby:
# * KMustSurvive VX * #
#   Scripter : Kyonides Arkanthes
#   v1.0.1 - 2025-08-31

# This scriptlet allows you to set any enemy as some sort of victim that should
# be rescued during battle by NOT KILLING the victim!
# No event command will be needed during battle!

# This is a very simplistic approach to a feature in Breath of Fire II where
# you were supposed to kill the scorpion but not the villager.

# * Script Call * #
# - Warning: Both HP% parameters should be Integers.
#            If no maximum percent is entered, it will be equal to 100%
# $game_troop.must_survive(EnemyIndex, MinimumHP%)
# $game_troop.must_survive(EnemyIndex, MinimumHP%, MaximumHP%)
