Looking for Shin Megami style battle scripts.

[spyke624]

Does anyone know if there is an existing script for VX Ace that emulates either the "Press-turn Battle System" from Nocturne or the "1 more" system from Persona 3 and 4? If so, is it compatible with Yanfly scripts and Luna Engine (just about all of my major systems use these and I don't want to have to rebuild them)?

I really want to go with a non-standard battle system for my game. I would try making one myself, but I've got no experience writing my own scripts and wouldn't even know where to start. So if these scripts don't exist, or they're not compatible, would someone be able to help me do this by showing me/pointing me in the direction of what I can change in Yanfly battle engine, or add on as a compatibility patch?

I am quite certain that this question as been ask here before. I do not remember however what the answers were. Also I don't remember what the '1 more' system was even though I played Persona 4.

Either Yanfly or Yami created a press turn battle system. Double check Yanfly Channel.

@CP: I found the press turn system, thanks! I didn't know it was the free turn battle. Google didn't even help there :P

@Kurashi: the "1 more" system (a name that I just found out was forgotten somewhere between the release of Persona 3 FES and P3P) is an offshoot of the press turn system where the main differences are:

- turn order is wholly based on agility and is independant of what side the battler is on, thus enemies can take turns in between your actor's turns if they are fast enough.

- instead of awarding an extra half-turn to your fastest battler, it's the battler who does the critical hit or weakness damage that gets the extra action (the 1 more).

- critical hits and weakness attacks put battlers in a vulnerable state (down) where they were open to being made dizzy (miss a turn to recover, Persona 4) or they spent a turn getting back up (Persona 3)

- if all enemies are knocked down, your party can initiate an all-out attack for massive damage and also has a random chance for a unison attack if certain party members are present (Persona 4 Golden)

As for other threads about the same topic, a search of "Press turn" turned up 79 pages of pressing buttons or turning sprites and other topics about pressing things or tunring stuff. A search of "Megami" (I figured smt would be too short, and Shin is too common for this board) brought up 8 results. Only 2 of them talked about battle systems but they didn't answer my question. 1 was talking about changing the interface using Luna Engine, and the other was answered by Archeia, but she only said she had it in something, but didn't say whether she made it or if she found it somewhere.
