#  INTRODUCTION:

#

#  Have you ever wanted your monsters to respond immediately to a brazen at-

#  tack?  Do you feel that your quick and agile thief may wish to slice the

#  brute who landed a blow?  Then feel free to use this script  to allow for

#  devastating counter attacks.

#

#  With this script,  you can define enemies and actors  that may respond to

#  any successful strike.  Each may be assigned the chance of striking back,

#  the Skill ID used for the attack,  and optionally whether skill  used for

#  the counter attack uses up their SP. However, if the Skill ID assigned is

#  set to '0', it is a melee attack which would make the SP cost moot.

#

#  A special note regarding Skills and SP usage.  IF a battler set to deli-

#  ver a spell-based counter doesn't have sufficient SP for the skill's use,

#  then the counter automatically converts  to a melee attack.  This, if the

#  counter attack is defined to use SP.

#

#  Of course,  this defines a 'counter' as an extra attack beside the attack

#  which the defender was already planning to use or have already delivered.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

#  INSTALLATION:

#

#  Place this script below Scene_Debug and above Main for use.

#

#  If used with AnimBat,  place it below AnimBat.  Placing the script above

#  AnimBat will make the counter attacks the defender's only attack.

#

#  Then go to the CounterAttack module and fill arrays as desired.
