Selection Eval - For Rpg Maker MZ

GENERAL

"Selection Eval" is a plugin that allows to customize the selection of the actor/enemies window. As default, inside Rpg Maker you can set the targets from the database options of the skill/items without any further customization. Using this plugin, you can create selection conditions for making your targeting more interesting. In the example below, I made a skill that can select only the party leader.

For use this plugin you need to have at least a little knowledge on how to do basic scripting.

HOW IT WORKS

The plugin works using a notetag inside skill/items entry inside the database. Looking at the image above, you can notice that the notetag is:

<Selection Eval>
code....
targets = code...
<Selection Eval>

Inside the selection eval the targets variable represents the Array of targets that will be selectable. As default, targets array content is the default targets that would be taken by the skills/item.

Inside the notetag scope, you can use this variables too:

1. originalTargets -> This variable contains the original targets determined  by the skill/item scope.
2.  user -> Get the skill/item user;
3. troop -> Get the array containing the members of the troop;
4. party -> Get the array containing the members of the party;

WARNING! Take in account that the target's selection is influenced by the skill default scope.

Those are some examples of use:

 == Making only the LEADER selectable:
 <Selection Eval>
 targets = [$gameParty.leader()]
 </Selection Eval>
 == Filter for targets having less-equal of the 50% of their Max HP
 <Selection Eval>
 targets = targets.filter(t => t.hp <= Math.floor(t.mhp * 0.50))
 </Selection Eval>
