    Fancy Shmancy Battle Event Scripts

    I've noticed in the "Troops" panel that enemy parties can have custom battle events. Unfortunately, I don't understand how they work.

    For the first boss fight in my demo, I wanted two minion enemies to respawn after the boss was cut down to below 50% hp, but it never happened. I set the span to "turn". Was that the wrong one?

    Yeah, the Battle Event scripts can really come in handy so you'll want to get a hang of them.

    "Turn" would work, though "Battle" is better if you only want the event to happen once.

    I would guess the reason it's not working properly is the actual body of your event. You should remove Knockout status on those two minions, then restore their HP. Make sure the Event Condition is set to the boss enemy (as opposed to any other), too.

      If you use "turn" then the game will check for your conditions (boss below 50%) every turn, therefore respawning the enemies each turn. So definitely use "battle".

        Perhaps not. When I had it set to turn, it never happened. Not ONCE did either enemy respawn.

          What command are you using to make them respawn?

            Well, now that I think about it, that was before I made the changes that Wave suggested.

              Alright. In that case I'd like to make a general suggestion: it'd be very helpful if you started explaining your problems in a bit more detail. Specifically, what commands you're using in the events that aren't working for you.

              Generally your posts have been "I'm trying to make X happen but it's not working", without giving any info. It'd be appreciated by those who are trying to help you if you went into more detail in the future.

                I'm habitually bad with details.
