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 adds Boost Points, a mechanic which augments the potency of skills and/or items based on the type of notetag they have. The newly added mechanic allows actors and/or enemies to temporarily power themselves up for the current turn by using the Boost Points resource. Boost Points are gained at the end of each turn if the battler did not use any Boost Points. While Boosted, actions can deal more damage, hit more times, make buffs/debuffs or states last longer, and more! Features include all (but not limited to) the following: Add a new battle resource to your game: Boost Points! Determine how many Boost Points can be stored at a time! Also determine how many Boost Points can be used at a time! Determine how Boosting affects skills and items through the different kinds of notetags provided through this plug. Enemies can Boost, too! As long as the proper notetags are in place! Utilize Shortcut Keys to quickly Boost skills and/or items. Boosting skills and/or items can also affect the text displayed in the Help Window, too! Requirements This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations of RPG Maker. Required Plugin List Core Engine VisuStella MZ Battle Core VisuStella MZ Skills and States 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 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. --- Weakness Display VisuStella MZ The "Analyze" ability in the VisuStella MZ Weakness Display can be Boosted through this plugin and reveal multiple weaknesses at a time. --- 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. --- Battle Core VisuStella MZ When using Action Sequences, Boost effects for damage, turn extensions, analyze, etc. will not occur for anything other than the Action Sequence: "MECH: Action Effect" in order to maintain controlled effects. However, if you do want to apply bonuses for Boosts, utilize "MECH: Boost Store Data" to store inside a variable how many times Boosts were used. This can be used however which way you want it to as long as it is manageable through events and Common Events. --- Battle System - BTB VisuStella MZ The Boost Actions plugin cannot be used together with Battle System - BTB. If the Battle System is switched to using Battle System - BTB, then the Boost Actions plugin will shut itself off. The reason why these plugins cannot work together is because their mechanics play off too similarly to each other and cause conflicts. We, the plugin developer team, highly recommend that you utilize Battle System - BTB's Brave system instead of the Boost system to make the best use of the battle system in effect. --- Notetags 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. --- Boost Effect-Related Notetags --- <Boost Damage> - Used for: Skill, Item Notetags - Boosts will alter the damage dealt by this skill/item. -
