Guard Upgrade​

(version 1.00)​

Intro:

Uuuuuuugh, I hate making these posts.

But, I created the Plugin, so I should post it anyway. T_T

What This Plugin Does:

This Plugin allows you to manipulate the Guard system in your game.

The two main points of this Plugin is:

 - the ability to change an Actor's guard skill,

 - the ability to manipulate how much damage is reduced from Guarding using a new stat called Guard Damage Divisor (GDD).

Other key features of this Plugin include:

- Ability to make an Actor guard when using a Skill that does not target themself

- Ability to use a new stat called Guard Damage Divisor to manipulate guarding damage

- Ability to set Guard Damage Divisor based on Actor/Class/Armor/Weapon/State

- Ability to add Guard Damage Divisor based on Actor/Class/Armor/Weapon/State

- Ability to set Guard Damage Divisor for Enemies

- Ability to set defaults for every value in this Plugin

How Does GDD work:

Before anything else, I think I should go over how Guard Damage Divisor (GDD) works.

Normally, when someone is damaged while they are guarding, the damage is cut in half, like this:

Guarding Damage = Damage * (1 / 2)

However, in this Plugin, GDD replaces the "2" you see in the formula, like this:

Guarding Damage = Damage * (1 / GDD)

This means if GDD is 4, then all damage is 1/4th as strong when guarding.

If GDD is 10, then all damage is 1/10th as strong when guarding.

If GDD is 100, then all damage is 1/100th as strong when guarding.

Finally, just wanted to say that each Actor has a unique GDD.

Furthermore, the amount of GDD that each Actor starts with by default can be changed in the Parameters.

(By default, it is 2).

How To Use It:

Let's start with the Notetags.

 ​

Notetags:

Actor/Class/Weapon/Armor/State Notetags:

<setGuardDamageDivisor: x>

Set x to the Guard Damage Divisor (GDD) you wish for this Actor to have.

This will override all <addGuardDamageDivisor: x> commands.

Furthermore, this command takes the following priority:

- State

- Weapon

- Armor

- Class

- Actor

If multiple of these have <setGuardDamageDivisor: x> in their Notetag,

then the one higher on the list will be the one used.

<addGuardDamageDivisor: x>

Set x to the amount of Guard Damage Divisor (GDD) you wish this

Actor/Class/Armor/Weapon/State to add to their total GDD.

The total number is used as the Actor's GDD.

<guardSkillID: x>

Set x to the Skill ID you wish this Actor to use when they

use the Guard command in battle.

Furthermore, this command takes the following priority:

- State

- Weapon

- Armor

- Class

- Actor

If multiple of these have <guardSkillID: x> in their Notetag,

then the one higher on the list will be the one used.

Enemy Notetags:

<guardDamageDivisor: x>

Set x to the Guard Damage Divisor (GDD) you wish this Enemy to have.

 ​

Skill Notetags:.

<appliesGuardToUser>

Inputting this into the Notetag of a Skill will make the User guard

no matter what the Skill's scope (target) is.
