[Question] Overworld Battle System

Would be interesting if there was, I would like to see a fangame set in the main series done with mystery dungeon style battles, this way some moves will have actual use. Teleport can be used to get out of a dangerous situation to heal up and similarly using Hyper Beam wont leave you open if you use it from a good enough distance.
 
Yes but as far as I'm aware it isn't compatible with Essentials.
I'm wondering if anyone ever made an overworld battle system for RMXP
Maybe lead with saying for Essentials. Zach provided you with a valid resource. I haven't come across any such BS that can be plugged into Essentials. Actually, I haven't come across too many of such BS in general. The main ones are XAS and Blizz-ABS, but those aren't Essentials ready.
 
Bottom line: You're likely to have to make it yourself. Essentials code is fairly plug-and-play, so if you can script the transition to a battle and feed it the same information as the regular battle scene I'm sure you can pull it off!
