[Omega greninja]

Good morning/afternoon/night, I want to know how to change temporaly the shiny rate of all pokemon to 50% with a switch. I searched a lot and i don't get the solution to my problem. Can someone help me in this problem.

i already looked there, but i dont't know how to add the rate for that switch. I searched in some parts of pokecommunity and nothing helps me really. Also saying me to see that don't tell me how to add the switch's own shiny rate. Can someone tell me seriosly how to do it, and don't say see in that script section, not all of us know about scripting at all. Only say the script and where it goes or explain it step by step of how to add it.

Hey there,
I assume you are using essentials version 18. In "PField_EncounterModifiers" you can find this:

Spoiler:

# Make all wild Pokémon shiny while a certain Switch is ON (see Settings).
Events.onWildPokemonCreate += proc { |sender,e|
  pokemon = e[0]
  if $game_switches[SHINY_WILD_POKEMON_SWITCH]
    pokemon.makeShiny
  end
}

Changing it to this will get your wanted result:

Spoiler:

# Make all wild Pokémon shiny while a certain Switch is ON (see Settings).
Events.onWildPokemonCreate += proc { |sender,e|
  pokemon = e[0]
  if $game_switches[SHINY_WILD_POKEMON_SWITCH] [COLOR="Red"]&& rand(2)==0[/COLOR]
    pokemon.makeShiny
  end
}

After that go into settings and change "SHINY_WILD_POKEMON_SWITCH = YYY" to the switch number you like.Then just activate that switch and Voila.

Additionally don't be thrown off, if somebody doesn't tell you the exact way of implementing a feature. Part of creating a game is learning about new things and the best way to do that, is by yourself. Of course it's fine to ask for help if you don't know how to pull something off, but maybe try to really push yourself first. Learning by doing. :) I think Golisopod User had the same on their mind when they only gave you a hint on how to adress your problem.
Also I'd recommend you to dive into the basics of Ruby before starting to code. A good place for this is:https://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby/index.htm
Good luck with your fan game :)
