Preventing escaping battle when switch is ON

[Szibes 2]

In my project you either have 100% or 0% chance of escaping battle,

but depending on circumstances you can escape from otherwise inescapable battle an vice versa.

Question is: How I can bound escape ratio to a switch/variable, I mean, when switch is turned ON/variable changed to 1 battles become inescapable.

There are a few spots to do this, but a switch would work best

module BattleManager
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Setup
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def self.setup(troop_id, can_escape = true, can_lose = false)
    init_members
    $game_troop.setup(troop_id)
    $game_switches[1] == true ? @can_escape = false : @can_escape = true
    @can_lose = can_lose
    make_escape_ratio
  end
end

Change the switch number to whatever you want to use.

The when the switch is on, escape is false

After entering battle I'm getting no method error:

"undefined method 'setup' for nil:NilClass" for line 7.

Where did you put the code.

Works perfectly in my test

I am an idiot, I am braindead moron. 

The script that you wrote works perfectly, but I just completly messed up when writing that post.

I wanted a script that would prevent escaping AFTER battle started, i.e. changing escape ratio from 1 to 0, I assumed that your script was doing just that.

But I somehow managed to find solution because of this. I know next to nothing about writing scripts in ruby, but I was able to make small change in the script.

module BattleManager
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Escape Processing
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def self.process_escape
    $game_message.add(sprintf(Vocab::EscapeStart, $game_party.name))
    success = $game_variables[14] == 1
    Sound.play_escape
    if success
      process_abort
    else
     # @escape_ratio += 0.1
      $game_message.add('\.' + Vocab::EscapeFailure)
      $game_party.clear_actions
    end
    wait_for_message
    return success
  end
end

I don't know if that's optimal solution, but it works for me so happy with it.

I'm sorry for my misleading writing, and thank you for your help.
