RTAB Add-On: Consume Items Patch

[DerVVulfman]

Consume Items Patch for Connected Attacking
Version: 1.0

Introduction
Discovered in mid August, 2006 was a little glitch when combining two of cogwheel's scripts: Skills That Consume Items and Connected Attacking. While Connected Attacking had to be the last script added into the RTAB list of add-ons for it to work without errors and freezes, it DID however eliminate the feature of items getting used up by skills... in battle (though it still worked outside of battle).

What this patch does is remedy this problem. It returns this feature to users of both Skills That Consume Items and Connected Attacking.

Screenshots
Huh?

Demo
C'mon. It's a patch guys. You got the demo on every other RTAB post I've put up!!!

# Consume Items Patch for Connected Attacking v 1.0                 (08-18-2006)

class Scene_Battle
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Make Skill Action Results

  alias make_skill_action_result_consume make_skill_action_result
  def make_skill_action_result(battler, plus_id)
    make_skill_action_result_consume(battler,plus_id)
  # If item(s) are used
    if battler.is_a?(Game_Actor)
      items = battler.medium(@skill.id)
      if items
        for item in items
          id = battler.item_name(item[0])
          num = item[1] == nil ? 1 : item[1]
          # Check if consumable              
          if $data_items[id].consumable
            $game_party.gain_item(id, -num)
          end
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Instructions
Just paste this below all the other RTAB Add-Ons... right under Connected Attacking (which better be the last one in your current list guys). As it Aliases one def in Connected Attacking, it fixes that problem and returns the Item Using feature.

Compatibility
Only an RTAB patch. It assumes you're using Skills That Consume Items and Connected Attacking(in that order). If ya ain't using any of 'em... why are you here? :D

Credits and Thanks
To Onsokamaru, for finding the wee little glitch.

Author's Notes
Not much to note. Only took 10 minutes to write the script (and 1/2 hour to post :D ) .
