[Scripting Question] 4x Effectiveness Message

[HeroesFightingFear]

# Type effectiveness
    if numhits>1
      if target.damagestate.typemod>8
        if alltargets.length>1
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's super effective on {1}!",target.pbThis(true)))
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's super effective!"))
        end
      elsif target.damagestate.typemod>=1 && target.damagestate.typemod<8
        if alltargets.length>1
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's not very effective on {1}...",target.pbThis(true)))
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's not very effective..."))
        end
      end
      if realnumhits==1
        @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("Hit {1} time!",realnumhits))
      else
        @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("Hit {1} times!",realnumhits))
      end
    end
    PBDebug.log("Move did #{numhits} hit(s), total damage=#{turneffects[PBEffects::TotalDamage]}")

I wanna add something like this stuff for 4x effectiveness. Anyone know how to do it? If so, that'd be great!
As for the display idea...

          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's extremely effective on {1}!",target.pbThis(true)))
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's extremely effective!"))

If this code (typemod>8) recognizes when a move is super effective:

typemod>8
        if alltargets.length>1
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("It's super effective on {1}!",target.pbThis(true)))

Then you will need to make a new code to recognized a number major than '8' and set it to inflict x4 effective and then, do a 'elsif' for the code above, to show your new message.

As WolfPP said, you should modify that code. I did it, and it looks like this (=>16 represents the x4 effectiveness):

      if target.damagestate.typemod>=16 #(x4 Effectiveness)
        if alltargets.length>1
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("¡Es ultra eficaz en {1}!",target.pbThis(true)))
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("¡Es ultra eficaz!"))
        end   
      elsif target.damagestate.typemod>8 && target.damagestate.typemod<16 #(x2 Effectiveness)
        if alltargets.length>1
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("¡Es súper eficaz en {1}!",target.pbThis(true)))
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("¡Es súper eficaz!"))
        end
      elsif target.damagestate.typemod>=1 && target.damagestate.typemod<8 #(x1/2 Effectiveness)
        if alltargets.length>1
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("No es muy eficaz en {1}...",target.pbThis(true)))
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("No es muy eficaz..."))
        end
      end

Okay but it will only show the message but I don't think it will trigger typemod to 16 (and IDK how 'typemode' works). I believe you guys need to dig the code about 'typemod', like from 'PokeBattle_Move' script:

      effectiveness=0
      if opponent.damagestate.typemod<8
        effectiveness=1   # "Not very effective"
      elsif opponent.damagestate.typemod>8
        effectiveness=2   # "Super effective"
      end
      if opponent.damagestate.typemod!=0
        @battle.scene.pbDamageAnimation(opponent,effectiveness)
      end

Etc. GL anyway!

To be honest, I have it in my game, and I've not modified typemod's code. I probably forgot an edition and where it is lol.
I didn't modify typemod's code since Essentials, by itself, has defined (Idk where, really) a code for x4 effectiveness, or there wouldn't be any difference if you hit a Grass-Bug or a Grass type with a Fire move. I discovered it by my own, testing numbers in order to see what message appears and with 16 worked. I know it's kinda noob, but I'm actually xD.
