GubiD’s Tactical Battle System [GTBS] v2 for Ace

Instead of a generic battle screen, with the player's characters on one side and the enemies on the other, encounters take place on the map or a three-dimensional, isometric fields. Characters move on a battlefield composed of square tiles; movement and action ranges are determined by the character's statistics, equipment and job class. It is extremely configurable, allowing such drastic changes as emulating other popular tactical based games. Games that can be emulated (mostly) are Final Fantasy Tactics, Vandal Hearts, Fire Emblem, Super Robot Wars and Shining Force.

It is best recommended that you start your project from this as a base. However, you may also use my ‘Import/Export Script’ to import the script to your project. (TBA)

The using of this script in your game is at your own risk.

This script is not without error, but it is has been through months of testing from over 300 users to ensure it is. If an error is encountered, please post it on my development website under the GTBS project. There, other users or myself, can provide answers/solutions to the problems being encountered. Bugs may or may not be fixed when reported.

Do not post direct links to the downloads files, instead link the page on my website that contain it. This is the best way to ensure not only that people are receiving the most current copy. Plus it is courteous to send the traffic my way.

This script is compatible with MOST battle additions UNLESS they implement new dialogs into battle. As I inherit from mostly base classes this script will be compatible with most scripts made.
