Ok, cool. I can use this.  How can i extend the viewport of one window?  Like, i select 1 item in the left window, and info shows up in the right window, which, if its larger than the window itself, extends the viewport of the window so i can scroll the window up and down?

I'm not sure what you mean, but if I understand correctly that's no viewport issue, you just need to make the info window's bitmap larger than the window itself and RGSS will determine that the window should be scrollable on its own. Then of course you need to implement some simple routine to actually scroll the window when the appropriate keys are pressed. Something like:

If Input.trigger?(Input::DOWN)
  window.oy += 32
end

i want to use the numbers 1-4 as input for the peral ABS but I forgot how to, I don't know if 

is num, or numb, but I know it's something like that.

 

 Skill    =  [PearlKey::NUMB1,      '1']            # Skill usage

 Skill2   =  [PearlKey::NUMB2,      '2']            # Skill2 usage

 Skill3   =  [PearlKey::NUMB3,      '3']            # Skill3 usage

 Skill4   =  [PearlKey::NUMB4,      '4']            # Skill4 usage

Moonpearl, thank you. Because of that comment, I learned my mistake!

Unless it's built into the ABS, number inputs aren't used in RPG maker according to the help files. You'll need to download someones Input Module script in order to use numbers. Try this one out:

What lines of code would i need to add to get an enemy hp and mp to update when i attack the enemy?

At the moment it shows the starting out hp/mp and never refreshes.

 

(I am working on a custom hud)

 

rgss3 TOO BTW
