This is true, and is a tradeoff to giving CT abilities to Draw Out. I wonder if making Draw Out behave like a Basic Skill set would get rid of this behavior (and let me give them MP costs).

There's a flag in the AI Behavior section of the Abilities tab: "Check CT/Target".

    Already checked for most Draw Out abilities. Looks like I overlooked a few that I added CT's to later, but I'm pretty dang sure I've seen them ignore Asura/Koutetsu/Kiki CTs, who all already had Check CT/Target checked.

    10/28/2017: Proper v1.10 released!
    Patch a fresh FFT ISO.

    Lots of changes here:

    EDIT:
    Another patch, v1.10b has been released. v1.10 unintentionally left out the Skip Events ASM. 1.10b has it back in.

    Bug: Drawout animations have Katanas in weird position.

    I'm guessing that the sprites for the katanas is also incorrect.  It happens if you use the draw out abilities in an action menu that is not set as "katana inventory"

    You could always change the animations from "03 73 00" to something like "07 00 00" or "01 00 00" if you wanted. 

    "07 00 00" is used for Holy Sword abilities, etc.

    "01 00 00" is used for the Spellblade abilities

    But at the end of the day I suggest setting the animations to something that YOU are happy with.  Also, I can't recall what the "Drawout" abilities look like exactly with various character animations.  It has been a while since I last messed around with them.

    For those who have played Proper, I have created a survey as another way to get feedback. Filling it out would really be appreciated!

    Algus can and will get absolutely toasted before I can reach him, meaning if I say "we gotta save him" I just basically auto-lose.

    Halp.

    Also Algus is a sack of shit who just used my only remaining Phoenix Down in a context where the person he rez'd immediately got blasted back into oblivion.

    Also Algus is a sack of shit in general.

    Seriously though, 3x in a row, Algus has gotten toasted a solid turn before I could feasibly reach him.

    lessen, we have an edit button for a reason. Use it! There is no reason to triple post, especially in a period of 12 minutes...

    <snip>

    Anyone got any idea why Ramza turned into a series of vertical color bars at the start of the thief fortress battle? At a specific moment as the level was loading, and the title of the level was showing, the background graphics glitched out a bit (large black patch) and some color bars appeared very briefly on the right side of the screen. Then Ramza's sprite showed up as crazy rainbow bars, and his portrait is also messed up (it's showing a yellow black mage).

    Should I just assume my ROM itself got corrupted somewhere along the way? The rest of the mod features seemed to be working fine for the most part. There was one moment during the very first mission where tooltips stopped showing up entirely, and as mentioned before, Algus can't NOT get killed, but aside from that...

    Further testing indicates it's not about Ramza specifically, it seems more like the right-most character in my squad gets turned into color-bars. I guess I'll save my game and try re-preparing the ISO tomorrow to see if it turns out any better.

    Further further testing: I re-prepared the ROM and things are still the same. I found that if I play a random encounter, the problem doesn't happen (in the random encounter). I also found that if I play the Thief Fort map with a party of 3 instead of 4, the problem doesn't happen. It doesn't seem to matter which three, the problem just always happens with a party of four on that map for me. I guess I gotta face the challenge of beating the map with three people

    lessen: This is perfectly normal behaviour. There's nothing wrong on your end: i.e. this is a bug with the mod itself.

    Yes, this is because the creator of the mod didnt actually follow the rules of mod creation for FFT, how proper of them.

    Darn, I liked the idea of the patch and (as a newbie to FFT) the execution seemed plausible.

    Guess I'll tryyyyyyy........ LFT, next, then!
