~ The Tempest Script ~

By Ehvo Lu Shynn with Alpha Prime

This script summons a tempest effect, with rolling clouds and lightning strikes! Once the script is installed, anyone can call the tempest by saying the words summons a Grand Tempest and you can also customize this script by adding a condition where the tempest only occurs if called by the dream owner. You can use these tempest patch items or create your own. The linked patch here includes four cloud objects and three lightning strike objects. Copy ALL the text from the box below and paste it into your DS script. It doesn't matter where you put them inside your own scripting, but keep the four sections in order: * // The Tempest Script, by Ehvo Lu Shynn with Alpha Prime * // The Tempest Part One - The Beginning * // * // You will need to replace the # symbols in the following * // block with the item numbers of the clouds and lightning. * // (0:0) When everything is starting up, (5:300) set variable %cloud_object_one to the value #.
