Laura's Escape Bar Removal Code

Laura's Escape Bar Removal Code
Version: 1.5

Introduction
This script system removes the [ FIGHT / ESCAPE ] bar from your default or RTAB battle system. As this version overwrites certain defs in the SCENE_BATTLE system, it should be the top-most custom script in your system. This script also assumes that no 'direct' editing of the default RGSS scripts have been made.

Features

• Removes the Fight / Escape bar from the top of your battle system
  
• Adds the 'Escape' option to your actor's command window
  
• Actor's command window repositions itself vertically for the 'Escape' option
  
• Optional control to resize the Actor command window for scrolling options
  
• You can rename the 'Escape' option
  
• The 'Escape' option show disabled if the hero(s) can't run from battle

Screenshots
No thanks

Demo
Had one today... I ate it. Delicious.

Script
The DBS Version
The RTAB Version

Instructions
Place this script right below the RGSS Default Script: Scene_Debug, to have the changes take place immediately to the DBS system. Any scripts that edit the DBS should be placed BELOW this script.

The ESCAPE_TEXT constant holds the text that appears in your command window.

WHAT I DID
Initially, I did nothing but what Da2DBM did. It's just that I kept it as a standalone script ready for install. Afterwards, I implemented XRXS's Window script to make it smaller and more compliant with other systems.

Compatibility
This script is NOT SDK compatible. It is not intended for any battle system other than the Default Battle system or the RTAB system and may conflict with scripts that 'replace' any of the following defs in Scene_Battle:
update, start_phase2, update_phase2, phase3_setup_command_window, start_phase4, and make_basic_action_result

However, scripts that Alias these defs should comply without any error.

Regarding Eladia's Battle Equipment Menu:

Compatability Fix

If using this with Eladia's Battle Menu, then the placement of the scripts affects which one of the options appears at the bottom of the Actor Command Window. If Laura is pasted below Eladia, the Escape option (Laura's) will be below the Equip option... and visa versa.

And, while the placement affects which one 'APPEARS' above or below the other, there ... is... some direct script editing to be done. Sorry...

Which ever one is the 'last' of the two scripts, you must go into the 1st def in the Scene_Battle code in the script. In Eladia that would be ebem_sp1, while in Laura that would be escape_sp1. Wherever you find:

Code:

@actor_command_window.height / 32 - 1

... remove the -1 so it would read

Code:

@actor_command_window.height / 32

Author's Notes
I named it after a friend. :D

What is required as conditions for use is due credit. I gotta get listed for this script somewhere... at least in the game's end credits. Also to be listed is credit to XRXS for his Window Command system, and to Da2DBM for the original edit.
