FP: Move Routes
Author: Tsukihime

Overview

Need to extend your move route options?
Or looking for an easier way to make move routes?

Features

• Move towards/away from event
• Turn towards/away from event
• Compact move string!
• Have events play animation balloons without using an event page

More will be added as I find more interesting things to add

Usage

All of these are accessed through "set move route" menu.

Choose "script" and then enter the custom move commands.

You can specify a sequence of move commands by typing a move-string

CODE

moves("UDUDLRLR3R3R3L3L")

They are in the form of "[number][direction]". It tells the event how many times to move in that direction. If no number is specified, then it's just one.

U means up
D means down
L means left
R means right.

For diagonal movement, use the following
Q is upper-left
W is upper-right
A is lower-left
S is lower-right

You can also specify some extended behaviors.

CODE

move_toward_event(2)
move_from_event(3)
turn_toward_event(1)
turn_from_event(5)

The events are specified by event ID. By default the events are named "EventXXX" where XXX is the event ID. You can use that for reference.

I have also provided some additional functionality that should be run parallel to event conditions.

1: balloon animation. If the event should play a balloon animation, set its move route as "custom" and then add the script command

CODE

show_balloon(balloon_id, event_id)
show_animation(animation_id, event_id)

Where event ID is -1 for game player, 0 for the event itself, and > 0 for some other event on the map.
