Introduction

WeaknessDisplay Preview.png

This plugin creates a display in battle to show enemy elemental weaknesses. These weaknesses will start off hidden and will be slowly revealed whenever the respective enemies receive elemental damage of the correct type. This way, your players no longer have to jot down mental notes on what enemies are weak to which elements, and instead, have access to their pool of discovered knowledge right at the screen.

Features include all (but not limited to) the following:

  • The Weakness Display is a new UI element added below each enemy.
  • The display will reveal each of the elemental weaknesses an enemy has.
  • The elements will be hidden at first but will be slowly revealed as the player hits the enemies with the correct element type.
  • Players can use Analyze Weakness effects to reveal weaknesses without needing to hit them directly.
  • Adjust the positions, icons, and elements for the Weakness Display to fit your game.

Requirements

This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations of RPG Maker.

Required Plugin List

This plugin requires the above listed plugins to be installed inside your game's Plugin Manager list in order to work. You cannot start your game with this plugin enabled without the listed plugins.


Tier 3

This plugin is a Tier 3 plugin. Place it under other plugins of lower tier value on your Plugin Manager list (ie: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

This is to ensure that your plugins will have the best compatibility with the rest of the VisuStella MZ Plugin library.


Extra Features

There are some extra features found if other VisuStella MZ plugins are found present in the Plugin Manager list.

---

Boost Action VisuStella MZ

The VisuStella MZ Boost Action plugin contains a notetag that allows the Weakness Display's Analyze effect to trigger multiple times. This notetag is <Boost Analyze> and its potency is dependent on the Plugin Parameter settings found in the Boost Action plugin.

---

Break Shields VisuStella MZ

The VisuStella MZ Break Shields plugin has a game mechanic to protect one's elemental weaknesses. The protected elements will show up in the Weakness Display and have a special icon on top of them.

---

Notetags

RPG Maker MZ's editor is unable to allow for custom traits/properties that a game dev may wish to associate with a database object, event, map, etc. Notetags are used to work around such limitations by allowing the game dev to tag certain traits/properties using specific Notetags declared by the related plugin.

Here is a list of Notetag(s) that you may use.


The following are notetags that have been added through this plugin. These notetags will not work with your game if this plugin is OFF or not present.

Analyze-Related Notetags

  without needing to hit the enemy with the said elemental weakness first.
