Battle Core VisuStella MZ VisuStella MZ This plugin is a part of the VisuStella MZ Plugin Library. Click here if you want to help support VisuStella on Patreon. Introduction This plugin changes battles to utilize a grid system. The grid will be composed of nodes for each team and battlers can move amongst them. By being on top of specific nodes, different strategies can be employed such as making certain skills available to use while on such nodes or applying unique passive state effects. Features include all (but not limited to) the following: Battles are changed to employ a grid system and places nodes across the battlefield for battlers to position themselves on top of. Battlers can move between their team's nodes and give themselves a better position for battle. Battlers cannot move to the opposing team's nodes. Ranks and Flanks determine each node's position. Depending on the Rank and Flank a node is on, different properties can be employed. Certain skills and items can only be used while standing on top of certain nodes as a new type of usage requirement. Skills and items can move the user and/or the targets around on the battle grid in a variety of ways, such as switching or crashing into other battlers and inflicting crash damage. Skills and items can have their range restricted to certain Ranks and Flanks declared by notetags. Some skills and items can have their range restricted based on the weapon equipped by the user, allow for melee-only targeting or the whole range of the battle field grid. Skills and items can directly select which nodes, Ranks, or Flanks to target for attacks or healing. Area of Effect notetags allow players to create skills and items that can affect more than one target based on positioning. Nodes can give passive state effects while battlers stand on top of them. Nodes can house triggers, which are skill actions that will set off once a battler stands on top of that node. Triggers can be used to deal damage, heal battlers, apply status ailments, and more. Skills and items can be used to plant passive states and/or action triggers on specific Nodes! Some skills and items can have special effects like teleporting to a specific Node, pulling all members of unit towards a specific Node, or even pushing them away. The Grid Tactics scene allows players to adjust where they want the party members to start. Let the player decide which nodes to start individual party members on. Requirements This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations of RPG Maker. Required Plugin List Battle Core VisuStella MZ 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 2 This plugin is a Tier 2 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. Grid System Mechanics This section explains the various changes and new mechanics regarding the battle grid system. --- Ranks, Flanks, and Nodes --- Each visually vertical column is called a "Rank". The name is from miliary usage for rows of soldiers standing side by side, also sometimes known as "files" or "lines". The numbering starts at the center of the grid going outward for each team. Enemy Team Ally Team 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 --- Each visually horizontal row is called a "Flank". The name is from military usage to referance the sides of a formation, also sometimes known as the "wings" of a formation. The number starts at the top of the grid going to the bottom of the grid. Enemy Team Ally Team 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 --- The points at which each Rank and Flank intersects is called a "Node". Every battler will be positioned on a node and only one battler can be on a node at any given time. Enemy Team Ally Team 4,1 3,1 2,1 1,1 1,1 2,1 3,1 4,1 4,2 3,2 2,2 1,2 1,1 2,2 3,2 4,2 4,3 3,3 2,3 1,3 1,3 2,3 3,3 4,3 --- Battler Movement --- Actors Actors can use the "Move" command to move to any allowed node based on their moveset rulings. By default, this means they can only move to adjacent nodes relative to their current position. Upon moving via the "Move" command, the command can undergo cooldown where the actor must wait a set amount of turns before being able to "Move" again. The cooldown amount can be adjusted through the Plugin Parameters. Also upon moving via the "Move" command, the actor can also end their turn immediately. This is an optional command and can be adjusted per actor with notetags or by default through the Plugin Parameters. Actors that are charmed, berserk, or on Auto-Battle will not use the "Move" command. The move command requires the actor to be able to move, too. --- Enemies Enemies do not have a "Move" command and therefore, do not move by default. Instead, the best way to have enemies move is to create movement Skills and have their battle AI perform them. These skills are best left as enemy-only skills that actors do not have access to. Their accessibility and frequency of use to move skills have no bearing to and from the nature of movement effects. However, certain effects may stop the movement effects associated with the skills such as the Battle Core notetag <Battler Sprite Cannot Move> for enemies. --- Actors and Enemies Stay on Their Sides Actors and enemies will not move onto the nodes belonging to the opposing unit. This means actors will always be on the rightmost nodes while enemies will be on the leftmost nodes. They CANNOT cross over into each other's territory as this plugin does not support that grid gameplay style. The nodes that belong to each unit's side will stay on those sides. Ownership of a node's team cannot be switched. --- Movement Features --- Switching If a battler moves onto a node that already has an allied battler on it, then the two battlers can switch places. The place switching will only occur if done on the acting battler's own intention or by another ally battler. Switching can be disabled by Plugin Parameters. Certain notetags can also prevent a battler from being able to switch such as the <Battler Sprite Cannot Move> enemy-only notetag available from the VisuMZ Battle Core. However! If a battler is dead, regardless of all other notetag properties, the corpse becomes node-switchable. The reason for this is because it helps prevent a soft-lock state in which either the player or enemy side cannot perform actions due to their current node location (think of melee battlers being stuck behind a wall of corpses loaded on the front row). By being able to move and switch nodes with corpses, soft lock scenarios can be solved. This setting can also be adjusted as a Plugin Parameter for those who feel confident in their ability to design their battles where soft locks are impossible to happen with. If the Plugin Parameter is changed to disallow switching with corpses, this will only apply to corpses that remain visible. Corpses that fade away with collapse effects will not apply and can still be switched (even though invisible after). --- Collision If a battler uses a skill that moves an opposing battler onto a node with another opposing battler, then collision occurs. The target opposing battler that should be knocked back will return to their original position while both colliding battlers take knockback damage. --- Battle Grid Tactics --- This is an optional feature. You can turn on "Battle Grid Tactics" to allow for players to set up the starting positions of where the individual members of the party will go when a battle starts. This adds a new command to the Main Menu, which takes the player to a scene where they can customize their battle grid tactics layout. If this feature is not used, then the starting positions of individual party members will depend on the notetags used to determine their battle starting ranks and flanks. --- Major Changes This plugin adds some new hard-coded features to RPG Maker MZ's functions. The following is a list of them. --- Sideview Only If your game is NOT using sideview and you are using the Battle Grid System, then the plugin will automatically enforce the sideview property. The reason behind this is because the grid system is specifically made for sideview visuals and controls. Therefore, it will not work without it. As such, some visual properties are also changed with this. Battlers will no longer step forward or backward when it's their turn to actively input a command. The reason behind this is because it causes a visual discrepancy with the grid node they're supposed to be standing at. And depending on the size of the grid node, it may cause confusion as to where the battler is actually standing. Therefore, the plugin will keep the battlers at their node location while inputting or performing the start of their actions. --- Max Battle Members There is a limit to how many battle members you can bring into battle based off the number of available nodes (Ranks x Flanks). If you have too few, then the plugin will warn you and then halt the game. If you are using Battle Grid Tactics, the optional feature to let players determine where they want the party members to start at, then a maximum of 20 party members can be used in order to match the Plugin Parameter limits. If the max number becomes more than 20 members, it will be automatically capped to 20 members. --- Extra Features There are some extra features found if other VisuStella MZ plugins are found present in the Plugin Manager list. --- Battle Core VisuStella MZ When using the <Battle Commands> class notetag, you can manually position the "Move" command by inserting "Grid Move" in between <Battle Commands> and </Battle Commands>. --- Aggro Control System VisuStella MZ Certain features of the Battle Grid System are changed to behave slightly different when there is the presence of a provoker or taunter. These changes will be explained in the help file. --- VisuStella Battle Systems All custom battle systems made by VisuStella MZ are compatible with the battle grid system and can be used together. However, there are some restrictions put into play with specific battle systems. More information will be mentioned in detail in the "VisuStella MZ Compatibility" section found below. --- Party System VisuStella MZ When the Party System is used together with the optional Battle Grid Tactics feature, players can create empty spaces in their party to allow for the positions of party members to go to specific nodes. For example, if a party has members in slots 1, 2, and 4 while 3 is empty, then those party members will go to tactical nodes 1, 2, and 4, instead of moving 4 up to 3. This only applies in-game and not through battle test if there are empty slots in the battle test setup. --- Battle AI VisuStella MZ Certain AI behaviors will change depending on the limitations of what an action is capable of affecting. The changes all involve factoring only what is within the range of an action. --- VisuStella MZ Compatibility While this plugin is compatible with the majority of the VisuStella MZ plugin library, it is not compatible with specific plugins or specific features. This section will highlight the main plugins/features that will not be compatible with this plugin or put focus on how the make certain features compatible. --- Aggro Control System VisuStella MZ In battle, if there are Provoke or Taunt targets on the field and an action that needs target selection is attempted to be used, the Provoke or Taunt targets must be within valid affected Ranks/Flanks that can be targeted by the action or else the action can't be used. Skills that do NOT need to select a target (usually skills with a "Random" scope or "All" scope) can bypass this as they would normally without the Battle Grid System. As such, be careful about designing your skills with restrictive Rank/Flank targeting that potential softlocks may occur if there are ever any Taunt or Provoke targets on the field. In regards to skills that target the highest aggro member, these will target the highest aggro member within the required Ranks/Flanks made by the skill as to not further restrict this skill's targeting ability. --- Battle System - ATB VisuStella MZ If the ATB Battle System is currently being used with the active setting, selecting the "Move" command during another battler's turn will queue up the system, waiting for the current battler's turn to end before allowing the inputting actor to move. --- Battle System - BTB VisuStella MZ If the BTB Battle System is currently being used and the movement command will pass turn, then the move command will be disabled if the actor is under the effect of "Brave" as it becomes the same case scenario as "Guard". On that note, during the command input phase, actors under the effect of "Brave" can select skills and items outside of their required ranks/flanks. If you wish to disable this, adjust the "Bypass Require Node?" setting in the "Compatibility Settings" Plugin Parameters. When the queued actions occur and the required rank/flank node positions are NOT met, then the actions will be skipped. --- Team-Based Battle Systems Battle System - ETB VisuStella MZ Battle System - FTB VisuStella MZ Battle System - PTB VisuStella MZ If the ETB, FTB, or PTB Battle Systems are being used and the move command will pass turn, and if no other actors can input for that turn, any remaining actions will be forfeited for that turn. --- Battle System - OTB VisuStella MZ If the OTB Battle System is being used and the movement command will pass turn, the turn passing will only apply to the current action. Any follow up actions on the same turn from that actor can be utilized. --- Party System VisuStella MZ In battle, the player cannot change entire parties at once from the Party Command Window. The feature will be unaccessible while Battle Grid System is in play. However, the player can still change party members through the Actor Command Window by having actors replace other actors. Party changing is also available through battle events, Common Events, and script calls. --- 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. --- Setup Nodes-Related Notetags --- <Start Rank: x> <Start Ranks: x, x, x> <Start Flank: x> <Start Flanks: x, x, x> - Used for: Actor and Enemy Notetags - If "Battle Grid Tactics" is enabled, ignore this for actors. The grid tactics menu will determine where actors will start in battle. - Determines the preferred starting Rank/Flank 'x' node for this battler. - If another allied battler is already on that node, then this battler will pick the next available 'x' Rank/Flank. - If none of the preferred Ranks/Flanks are available, then the battler will start at the next suitable location without getting in another battler's way. - Replace 'x' with a number representing the ideal starting Ranks/Flanks for this battler with higher priority given to the numbers at the start. - This notetag can be used together with each otherfor more precise starting node locations. --- <Grid Size: r X f> - Used for: Enemy Notetags - Changes the space occupied by this enemy to be 'r' Ranks and 'f' Flanks. - This turns the enemy into a "Large Enemy" and "Large Enemies" have the special properties listed below: - Large enemies will occupy multiple nodes at the same time and will take on any of the effects applied all of the occupied nodes. - Large enemies cannot move or be moved to different nodes. - Large enemies will bypass the usage requirements for the notetag: <rule Move User Node direction: x> - If a small enemy transforms into a large enemy, the enemy will adjust its node position in order to accomodate fitting in the grid. It may or may not overlap other enemies and will do little to change that in order to avoid conflicts. Be wary of transforming enemies from smaller sizes to larger sizes as this can look very janky. - If there is not enough space on the grid to fit all enemies listed in the troop, the plugin will ask you to redesign that troop. Examples: <Grid Size: 1 X 3> <Grid Size: 2 X 2> <Grid Size: 3 X 2> <Grid Size: 4 X 3> --- Movement Range-Related Notetags --- <Move Base: type> - Used for: Class Notetags - Sets the movement base to 'type'. - Replace 'type' with a type from the "Movement Range Types" section below. - Insert multiples of this notetag to combine the movement base. - If this notetag or its variant is not used, then the movement base range will be determined by the Plugin Parameters. --- <Move Base> type type type </Move Base> - Used for: Class Notetags - Sets the movement base to 'type'. - Replace 'type' with a type from the "Movement Range Types" section below. - Insert as many types as you want to combine the movement base. - If this notetag or its variant is not used, then the movement base range will be determined by the Plugin Parameters. --- <Move Range: type> - Used for: Actor, Weapon, Armor, State Notetags - Expands the movement range with 'type'. - Replace 'type' with a type from the "Movement Range Types" section below. - Insert multiples of this notetag to expand the movement range. --- <Move Range> type type type </Move Range> - Used for: Actor, Weapon, Armor, State Notetags - Expands the movement range with 'type'. - Replace 'type' with a type from the "Movement Range Types" section below. - Insert as many types as you want to expand the movement range. --- <No Grid Movement> - Used for: Actor, Class, Weapon, Armor, Enemy, State Notetags - Once applied to the affected battler, the battler cannot change grid node positions as if completely bound to the grid node. - This will also disable an actor's ability to use the Move command. - This will also disable a battler's ability to use skills/items that have the <rule Move User Node direction: x> notetag. - When the battler is targeted with a <rule Move Target Node direction: x> notetag, the battler will NOT move. --- <Seal Grid Movement> - Used for: Actor, Class, Weapon, Armor, Enemy, State Notetags - Once applied to the affected battler, the battler cannot change grid node positions willingly as the user but can be moved as the target. - This will also disable an actor's ability to use the Move command. - This will also disable a battler's ability to use skills/items that have the <rule Move User Node direction: x> notetag. - When the battler is targeted with a <rule Move Target Node direction: x> notetag, the battler can be moved. --- Movement Types These are used with the <Movement Base> and <Movement Range> notetags and are the values you'd insert in place of the 'type' parameter. --- All - Expands the movement range to the whole grid. - Takes priority over the rest of the types.

Target will stop at earliest node. However, if the target cannot move past the initial node, then no movements will be made. - Switch - Target a specific node and moves the target there. If there is a battler on target node, the target will switch positions with that battler if the battler can switch. If the other battler cannot switch, then the target will not move. - Switch Mid - Same as the above except the target will stop at the earliest available node. If there is a battler on the way, the target will switch places with that battler if the battler can switch nodes.
