Action Sequence Pack 2

The following contains a list of the actions you can use inside the five
action sequences. Each action has a unique function and requires certain
formats to operate properly.

=============================================================================
ATTACK ANIMATION: target, (mirror)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Displays the active battler's attack animation on the target(s). This will
be the animation determined by the actor's weapon(s). If it's an enemy, it
will be determined by the enemy's attack animation. If 'mirror' is used,
the animation will be flipped.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: attack animation: target
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
ENEMY EFFECT: target, effect-type
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
This affects enemies only. Makes the target display either a 'whiten' effect
or a 'blink' effect.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: enemy effect: targets, whiten
               enemy effect: targets, blink
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
FACE target: args
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
FACE target1: FORWARD
FACE target1: BACKWARD
FACE target1: HOME
FACE target1: AWAY FROM HOME
FACE target1: POINT, x coordinate, y coordinate
FACE target1: AWAY FROM POINT, x coordinate, y coordinate
FACE target1: target2
FACE target1: AWAY FROM target2
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
This will cause the battler to face a certain direction. Arguments can be
used in the above formats. This action sequence command will cause target1
to face any of those directions. If target2 is used, then target1 will face
directions relative to target2.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: face user: forward
               face target: backward
               face enemies: home
               face allies: away from home
               face target: point, 20, 40
               face target: away from point, 500, 600
               face user: target
               face target: away from user
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
FADE OUT: (frames)
FADE IN: (frames)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Fades the screen out and fades the screen in respectively. You can set the
amount of frames for the fading process. If you omit frames, 60 frames will
be used by default.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: fade out
               fade in: 10
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
FLASH SCREEN: args
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
FLASH SCREEN: WHITE, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: RED, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: ORANGE, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: YELLOW, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: GREEN, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: BLUE, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: PURPLE, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: MAGENTA, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: BLACK, (frames)
FLASH SCREEN: (red), (green), (blue), (intensity), (frames)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Causes the game screen to flash a set color. If for the arguments, you use a
color name, it will use a premade flash setting. If you choose to use your
own settings, use the red, green, blue, intensity format to determine what
color flash you would like. Red, green, blue, and intensity settings range
from 0 to 255. If frames are used, that will be the duration of the screen
flash. If omitted, the default frame count will be 60 frames.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: flash screen: white
               flash screen: red, 45
               flash screen: 128, 170, 214, 170
               flash screen: 68, 68, 68, 170, 45
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
FLOAT target: (height), (frames)
FLOAT target: (height%), (frames)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Causes the target to float into the air above the ground by height%. The
height is relative to the floating target. Using 100% means the target will
float above the ground 100% higher than its height. If no '%' sign is used,
the target will float that many pixels rather than a percentage of the
target's height. The frames determine how many frames it will take for the
target to reach that height. Using 0% for the height will bring the target
back to the ground.
Note: Floating only works with Sideview.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: float user: 200%
               float enemies: 500, 30
               float target: 0%, 30
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
HIDE BATTLE HUD
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Hides the battle hud to not obstruct any animations being played. You
can reveal the battle hud again using 'show battle hud'.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: hide battle hud
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
JUMP target: (height), (frames)
JUMP target: (height%), (frames)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Causes the target to jump a height relative to the target itself. If the
target jumps a height of 200%, the height will be 200% of the target's
height. If no '%' sign is used, the target will jump that many pixels rather
than a percentage of the target's height. The frame count is how long the
target will be in the air. You can use this with the 'Move' action sequence
to make the target appear like it is jumping a distance.
Note: Jumping only works with Sideview.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: jump user: 150%
               jump target: 300, 60
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
MOTION type: target, (no weapon)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

MOTION DEAD: target
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Forces the target to perform the specific type of action in sideview. If you
issue an action sequence command for the target to perform 'attack', the
target will automatically determine based on the weapon it has equipped to
use either a thrust, swing, or missile motion. Attack, thrust, swing, and
missile will also display the target's weapon if the target has one.

If 'no weapon' is used after the target, no weapons will be displayed. This
effect will only work with the Thrust, Swing, and Missile motions.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: motion walk: user
               motion thrust: user, no weapon
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
MOVE target: args
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
MOVE target1: HOME, (frames)
MOVE target1: RETURN, (frames)
MOVE target1: FORWARD, (distance), (frames)
MOVE target1: BACKWARD, (distance), (frames)
MOVE target1: POINT, x coordinate, y coordinate, (frames)
MOVE target1: target2, BASE, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, CENTER, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, HEAD, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, FRONT BASE, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, FRONT CENTER, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, FRONT HEAD, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, BACK BASE, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, BACK CENTER, (frames), (offset)
MOVE target1: target2, BACK HEAD, (frames), (offset)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
This is a move command. Arguments can be used in the above formats. This
action sequence command will move target1 to any of those locations listed
in the arguments. If it's towards target2, you must include what location
relative to target2 for target1 to travel to.
Note: Moving only works with Sideview.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
You may be curious about the optional (offset) argument there for some of
the entries. You can insert any of the below arguments in place of (offset):

  offset x +100
  offset x -200
  offset y +300
  offset y -400

This will allow you to offset the distance to the destination by a flat
amount. Positive numbers would indicate forward while negative numbers will
indicate backward.

  auto offset x +500
  auto offset x -600

However, if you use either of the above, depending on if the user is an
actor or enemy and depending on the target (if there is one) is an actor or
an enemy, it will move them into position accordingly.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: move user: home, 20
               move target: forward, 48, 12
               move enemy 1: point, 400, 300
               move enemy 2: point, 500, 250, offset x -50, offset y -50
               move actor 3: target, front base, 20
               move user: target, front base, 20, auto offset x -100
=============================================================================

=============================================================================
OPACITY target: x, (frames)
OPACITY target: x%, (frames)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Changes the opacity of the target to x (0-255) or x% (0% to 100%). If you
use 'frames', that will be the frame duration for the change in opacity for
the target.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: opacity user: 50%, 30
               opacity not focus: 0

Action Sequence Pack 3

The following contains a list of the actions you can use inside the five
action sequences. Each action has a unique function and requires certain
formats to operate properly.

=============================================================================
CAMERA CLAMP ON
CAMERA CLAMP OFF
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
By default, the camera clamp is on, which forces the camera to never pan
outside of the battlefield's boundaries. However, in the event you wish to
turn this off, use 'camera clamp off' to shut off the clamp. The clamp,
however, will be turned back on at the end of each 'perform finish' action.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: camera clamp on
               camera clamp off

Action Sequence Impact

Prev Target, Next Target

Before I begin on the Action Sequences, I want to say there's two new additions to the targeting mechanism. You know the parts where you put in "user" or "targets"? Now, during the <Target Actions> phase, you can use either "Prev Target" or "Next Target" to grab either the previous one or the next target in the list.

New Stuff

This part of the document will now be formatted like Yanfly's Action Seq help file to bring about a sense of familiarity.

Move Offset

=============================================================================
MOVE target OFFSET: +X, +Y
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Use this after a Move Action Sequence. This lets you adjust the movement
location goal of the target by +x and +y. You can use negative numbers, too.
A positive number will mean further past the goal. A negative number means
before the goal. This is done this way to not have absolutes making tricky
calculations depending on which way the battler is facing
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: move user offset: +100, +0
               move target offset: -50, +25

PROJECTILE ANIMATION id: START target, GOAL target

(optional parameters)
DURATION d
ARC a
EASE type
SPIN s

Replace id with either the icon index or the battle animation graphic you
want to use with the projectile. Choose a starting X and Y position or link
it to a target. Then choose a goal X and Y position or link that to a target
too. The rest of the parameters are optional and can be used in any order
you want, but I'll go through each of them.

If the starting targets have more than one member in them, projectiles will
be spawned from each target as a source. If the goal targets have more than
one member, projectiles will be made for each target. This means for each
source and each goal, a projectile will be made.

Duration: replace the d with the number of frames of duration. Default: 20
Arc: replace the a with the maximum arc height in pixels
Ease: replace type with an easing type from the Move Type list above
Spin: replace s with how fast you want the projectile to spin.
Icon Scale: replce i with the scale you want to increase your icons by
Angle: If you want the projectile to "arrow head" towards its goal, use this
Start Offset: lets you adjust the x and y offset of the starting position
Goal Offset: lets you adjust the x and y offset of the goal position

You can use as many projectiles on the screen at once as you want.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Improved Battlebacks

If you have YEP_BattleEngineCore.js installed with this plugin located
underneath it in the Plugin Manager, you can make use of these extra
damage related action sequences.

=============================================================================
BATTLEBACK id ADD: folder, filename
BATTLEBACK id ADD: folder, filename, hue
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Replace 'id' with the battleback you wish to alter as a number larger than 2
(i.e. 3 or above). Replace 'folder' with the exact folder name in your
project's 'img' folder (case sensitive). Replace 'filename' with the image
filename without the file extension (case sensitive). If 'hue' is used,
replace 'hue' with a number between 0 and 360 to change the hue of the image
used. This will add a new battleback stacked on top of battlebacks 1 and 2
with higher ID's being on top. When newly added, the new battleback will
start at opacity 0 and fade in with a duration of 20 frames.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Usage Example: battleback 3 add: battlebacks1, GrassMazePool

Replace 'id' with the battleback you wish to alter as a number larger than
2 (i.e. 3 or above). This will remove the battleback from being shown. When
this command is used, the battleback will fade with a duration of 20 frames.
Once it reaches 0 opacity, the battleback will be removed from the battle.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Replace 'id' with the battleback you wish to alter. Replace 'folder' with
the exact folder name in your project's 'img' folder (case sensitive).
Replace 'filename' with the image filename without the file extension (case
sensitive). This will change the designated battleback's image to use the
desired image depicted by the folder and filename. If 'hue' is used, replace
'hue' with a number between 0 and 360 to change the hue of the image used.
