Introduction

Replicates the 'badges' system from pokemon games.

for a full description open the spoiler...

 

 

 

This script was inspired by Pokemons 'Badges' system. Cause I could, I made a script to recreate it (this script) and when I had done that, I made it a MUCH more powerful feature...

Obviously, the standard pokemon badge system is a widely known feature; however, for those that do not know this system - a badge is basically an achievement that is gained throughout the course of gameplay.

Badges are not only for showing off, they can also be used to control various aspects of your game... Dramatically...

In pokemon, you would not be able to use certain HM's (items) if you did not have [x] badge. Therefore, I have included the ability to restrict item usage when certain badges have not yet been obtained.

 

You can also restrict skills being used and weapons/armor from being equipped. This restriction is automatic and you must gain the badge before it is lifted.

 

Obviously, being able to use an item/skill/weapon or armor after gaining a badge is great, but what if you want a badge to toggle a switch, modify a variable, give gold / items / weapons / armor or maybe even run a custom script call... Well... It can!

 

Another feature within the pokemon badge system, in earlier generations, was that your pokemons stats would increase if you owned [x] badge.
This could be done by doing a simple script call to increase each party members stats; maybe something along the lines of;
"$game_party.members.each {|m| m.add_param(id) }"
- Alternatively, you can have stats increase and learn skills for all members.
eg. badge 1 gives 50mhp, when badge one has been earned, all party members will always gain 50mhp. Regardless of when they joined the party.

Use simple script calls to gain badges and unlock the rewards.
But wait, what if you dont want to use script calls to gain badges? Well... You dont have to...

 

Depending on the badge's settings, you can enable it to track a certain object (such as a variable/switch/your own code) and once the 'gain badge' condition has  been met the achievment will automatically unlock.

 

Couple this with some of my other scripts - such as Actor Effect Blocks/ Gold Tracker/ Items Tracker and you can enable badges to unlock when the player has performed certain actions throught gameplay, such as; winning fights, fleeing battle, dying, leveling, after party has earned / spent [x] amount of
gold or even when party has used [x] amount of [x] item.

Just wanted to say ...you are awesome thank you for doing this script ,i can see sooooooo many ways to use it in a game 

[Dekita 99]

you are awesome...

This does seem to be the prevailing opinion

 

i can see sooooooo many ways to use it in a game 

yea, you could use it as a means of distributing stats, a means of gaining gold, a means of game progression, a means of player restricting...

 

Pretty usefull

 

Also, thanks for the kind comments.

Can the icons for sp stats, x stats and param be change?

[Dekita 99]

yep those are set within my core script. Just customize the Vocanicon module to suit your needs

If you have any problems let me know

I think I got hit by an error

• Whenever I try go to useable skill I got the achi error. and pointing me this;

  def achi_enabled(item)

    !$game_player.ahiiz.skill_restrictions.include?(item.id)

  end

end

 

• When I try to equip an equipment or go to equip option, I got this error.

 def achi_enabled_weap(item)

    !$game_player.ahiiz.weapon_restrictions.include?(item.id)

  end

regardless it's same thing as weapon error too? Any idea to fix this, I don't want to strict anything

lol simple fix, I just done a small typo.

 

instead of .ahiiz. it should be .achiiz. its missing a 'c'

I will update the fix shortly.

 

I have uploaded the fixed script. Thanks for pointing out the error
