Skill Updated Once Again!

In version 1.2.0 you can now change the color of the skill name and its SP cost at will! Shocked
At least while it is still Frozen cooling down. Laughing

Just go to the SkillColor module and edit its CD_COLORS hash. Winking

This is how the module looks like in its default state:

Code:
module SkillColor
  CD_COLORS = {} # Leave this line alone!
  # CD_COLORS[TurnsMin..TurnsMax] = [Red, Green, Blue]
  # Example: CD_COLORS[1..1] = [255, 255, 255] # For a Single Turn
  CD_COLORS[1..2] = [255, 255, 0]
  CD_COLORS[3..4] = [255, 165, 0]
  CD_COLORS[5..8] = [255, 60, 0]
  CD_COLOR_KEYS = CD_COLORS.keys.sort{|a, b| a.min <=> b.min }.reverse
end

Game Development is ALL About Nerfing!

Well, this time I've come back to update the normal version and its colored counterpart. Shocked

Thinking What new feature does it include now?

It now lets Slayne cast a skill twice only! Shocked

Just leave this note in the skill's note box:
Code:
<cast_only_twice>

Happy with a sweat Not really what you were expecting, is it?
Who Knows? Who cares? Somebody else might need that brand new feature at some point.

Maintenance Update

The previous release could crash when the engine is still opening the skill menu. Thus, I was in need of uploading 2 new demos with the fixes to prevent your game from crashing.

Because pasting both scripts on the main post is a pain you know where, I preferred to just keep the download link to demos here.
