Please check the latest official version at: https://triacontane.blogspot.com ----- We’re changing the Substitute mechanic. First， let’s explain the Substitute mechanic in RPG Maker MZ. - The Substitute - Alive - Not subject to the ”Cannot Act” action restriction - Possess the ”Substitute” trait - Substituted - Critically Dying (HP is 1/4 or less) - Not the same Battler as the Substitute - Skills activated by Substitute - Hit type is not ”Guaranteed Hit” - Substitute Priority The ”Substitute Battler” is determined in order， starting from the front of the party - A commonly misunderstood feature - Substitute is possible even if subject to the ”Attack XX” action restriction - The skill’s ”Range” and the skill’s user have no effect on the Substitute determination (Substitute will also activate for healing and defense if the Hit type is not ”Guaranteed Hit”) 1. The following default Substitute conditions can be disabled. ・Critical (HP is 1/4 or less) ・Accuracy type is not ”Guaranteed Hit” ・Not subject to the ”Cannot Act” action restriction Note that if the ”Accuracy type is not ”Guaranteed Hit” condition is removed， Substitute will be activated indiscriminately， even for unrelated skills such as defense. Please set this carefully. 2. You can set the detailed activation conditions for Substitute in detail. Enter the following in the memo field of the database with the characteristic. Substitute will be activated when ”all conditions” in the memo field are met. Generally， this is entered together with the ”Substitute” feature. Note that the memo field of the database with the characteristic is the memo field for any of the following: actor， job， weapon， armor， state， or enemy character. <SE_ExecutorHP%:50> # Activates only when the executer’s HP is 50% or above. <SE_SubjectHPRate:50> # Same as above <SE_TargetHPRate:50> # Activates only when the target’s HP is below 50%. (※1) <SE_TargetHPRate:50> # Same as above <SE_SubstituteTargetRestriction:1> # Limits the target of substitution to [1]. (※2) <SE_TargetRestriction:1> # Same as above <SE_SubstituteSwitch:4> # Activates only when switch [4] is ON. <SE_SubstituteSwitch:4> # Same as above <SE_SubstituteFormula:f> # Activates only when formula [f] is true. (※3) <SE_SubstituteFormula:f> # Same as above <SE_SubstituteRate:50> # Activates Substitute with a 50% chance. <SE_SubstituteRate:50> # Same as above <SE_SubstituteState:5> # State [5] is automatically granted only during Substitute. <SE_SubstituteState:5> # Same as above *1 This is only determined if the default Substitute condition， ”Dying，” is disabled in the parameters. *2 To specify the target of the <SE_SubstituteTargetLimit:n> tag， enter the following in the memo field of the database with the feature. <SE_SubstituteTarget:1> # The target will be <SE_SubstituteTargetLimit:1>. <SE_SubstituteTarget:1> # Same as above Any actor matching the parameters specified in ”SubstituteTargetLimit” will be considered a Substitute target. For example， if you enter <SE_SubstituteTargetLimit:2> in the memo field， Substitute will only be performed on actors with the feature that also have <SE_SubstituteTarget:2> in the memo field. *3 This is an advanced feature. Within the formula， you can reference the Action object of the target skill using ”action.” By using this effectively， you can precisely limit the skills activated by Substitute. Below is an example. <SE_Substitute Calculation Formula:action.isAttack()> # Activates Substitute for normal attacks only <SE_Substitute Calculation Formula:action.isPhysical()> # Activates Substitute for physical attacks only <SE_Substitute Calculation Formula:action.isForOne()> # Activates Substitute for single targets only <SE_Substitute Calculation Formula:action.hasElement(2)> # Activates Substitute for skills with attribute [2] only 3. When Substitute is activated， you can apply the effect of a skill with a specified ID to the substitute performer. <SE_SubstituteSkillID:5> # Apply skill [5] to the performer when Substitute is activated. (※1) <SE_SubstituteSkillId:5> # Same as above ※1 Damage popups， animations， and other effects will not be displayed. 4. You can individually specify skills for which you want to disable Substitute. Specify the following in the skill or item’s memo field: <SE_SubstituteInvalid> <SE_SubstituteInvalid> This plugin does not have any plugin commands.
