Rules and Operations†

Specify basic game settings, such as cast controls and input device assignments (key assignments).

Game System Definition†

This section is where you set the rules for the game system.

• Menu
  • Maximum Capacity of the Inventory
    Specify the number of items the main cast can have, with a value from 1 to 999.

• Number of Saved Files
  Specify the number of save files that can be created in a game. The maximum value is 40.

• Use Menu
  Specify whether or not to use the standard menu.

• Skip Title Screen
  Skip the title screen that appears immediately after game startup.
  To display the title screen with this specification turned on, it is necessary to call up the screen using Display Title Screen in an event.

• Display Reserve in Menu
  Specify whether or not to display the reserve in the "Members" section of the menu.

• Register to Picture Book
  • Hide Undiscovered Casts
    If turned on, cast members whom the player has not yet met in the game will appear as undiscovered cast members in the picture book.
    The text to be displayed when not discovered can be specified in the "Common Terms" section.

• Hide Unobtained Items
  If turned on, items that the player has not yet obtained in the game will appear as unobtained in the picture book.
  The text to be displayed when not obtained can be specified in the "Common Terms" section.

• Hide Unlearned Skills
  If turned on, skills that have not yet been learned will appear as unlearned skills in the picture book.
  The text to be displayed when unlearned can be specified in the "Common Terms" section.

• Battle Related
  • Basic Max Damage/Recovery Amount
    This is the base value for the maximum damage/recovery.
    The final upper limit will be the result of adding the maximum damage/recovery from equipped items and states to this value.

• Basic Max Damage/Recovery Amount
  This is the basic value of the maximum damage/recovery.
  The final upper limit will be the result of adding the maximum damage/recovery from equipped items and states to this value.
  
• Use Attack Range
  Specify whether the "Attack Range" set in Database > Casts or Database > Items should have an effect.
  The unit of attack range is the grid on the battle layout.
  It will not be able to attack enemies out of attack range.
  "Attack Range" also affects the range of its effect in the following cases.
  • When an item is used as an "item" in battle
  • When an item with a skill is used as a "skill"

• Attack Range Judgment Type
  If "Attack Range Judgment Type" is set to "Line", Only the "front" and "rear" distances on the battle layout will be taken into account.
  In the case of "Line," if you set the attack range to 1, they can attack "an enemy with one grid in between."
  When "Distance" is selected, the diagonal distance is also included in the attack range.
   
  In the case of "Distance", if the attack range is set to 1, they can attack "enemies adjacent to each other horizontally and vertically". For example, to target an enemy that exists diagonally in front of them by one grid, put the attack range √2≒1.5
   
  The area in blue is the range that can be reached when "Attack Range 1" is specified.
  (Left: Line, Right: Distance)
  If the attack range does not reach the center point of the grid, it cannot be attacked.
  Therefore, if the "Distance" is set, the attack will not reach the diagonal grid.
  
   
• Rearrange by State During Battle
  Specify whether a party member who is in a certain "state" during a battle should be automatically moved to the back of the formation.
  You can specify whether or not to enable this feature for each "state" in Database > State Definition.

• Restore the Original Order when States are Removed
  Specify whether party members who are moved to the back of the formation during battle due to their "state" will return to their original position when the "state" is removed.

• Make Battle Rewards Level Dependent
  Specify whether to multiply the battle rewards set in Database > Casts > Battles by the level of the defeated cast.

• Level Up by EXP
  Specify whether or not to use the experience-based leveling system.

• EXP Formula (Class)
  Specify the formula for the value added to the experience value when winning a battle, which affects the level up of a class.
  Example 1: 2 -> 2 is always added.
  Example 2: exp * 10 -> 10 times the experience value that goes into the cast will be added. (exp = base experience)

• Parameter Reflection Rate (Class)
  Specify the rate at which the parameters of the class set for the cast are added to the cast-specific parameters.

• EXP Formula (Subclass)
  Specify the formula for the value added to experience value when winning a battle, which affects the level of the subclass.
  Example 1: 2 -> 2 is always added.
  Example 2: exp * 10 -> 10 times the experience value that goes into the cast will be added. (exp = base experience)

• Parameter Reflection Rate (Subclass)
  Specify the rate at which the parameters of the subclass set for the cast are added to the cast-specific parameters.

• Individualize Level Up Effects
  Specify whether or not to display the effect at level-up separately for each cast member.

• Proceed Battle Result Automatically
  Specify whether the result effect after the battle will proceed automatically or be left to the user.

• Reverse Left/Right Battle Target Selection
• Reverse Up/Down Battle Target Selection
  You can change the direction of movement of the selection cursor for battle commands.

• Use Default Battle Layout
  Specify whether to use the "default layout specified in this tool" for the placement of allies and enemies in battles.

• Battle Layout Settings
  If you do not use the default battle layout, you can specify the alignment of allies and enemies in this section.
  The "system default" refers to the default layout specified in this tool.
  If a custom battle layout is specified in Map Settings > Enemy Distribution for each map, or if no battle layout is specified for an event battle, the battle will be conducted according to what is specified in this section.

• Rendering Options
  • Display Color for Hidden Areas
    Specify the color of the silhouette that appears when the player is behind terrain or buildings.

• Use Object Transparency
  If the "Use Object Transparency" option is turned on in the settings of the material being used, objects can be made transparent by applying dithering (transparent mesh in the form of a grid) when they are close to the camera.

• Object Transparency Start Distance
  Specify the distance from the camera at which dithering will begin when "Use Object Transparency" is on.

• Current Location Map Display Settings
  • Rotate Player Icon
    If turned on, the player icon on the mini map is rotated according to the player's orientation.

  The higher this value, the less likely it is that the player will skid when touching other objects.
