Set a Copyright text on the bottom of the game screen.
as it is optional, leave empty for not using it.

Blur Background is the snap that is taken when you open a menu,
when ON, the background is shown, when OFF, it is removed.

when setting "Max Picture" higher than 100, use the scriptcall as default
to call the ID above 100, for "Battle" use PictureId + MaxPicture.
if Max Picture = 2000, than Battle Picture start at 2001.
$gameScreen.showPicture(pictureId, name, origin, x, y, scaleX, scaleY, opacity, blendMode)
Example:
$gameScreen.showPicture(1742, "File", 0, 10, 10, 100, 100, 255, 0)
Other scriptcalls are required as normal:
$gameScreen.movePicture(pictureId, origin, x, y, scaleX, scaleY, opacity, blendMode, duration);
$gameScreen.rotatePicture(pictureId, speed);
$gameScreen.tintPicture(pictureId, tone, duration);
$gameScreen.erasePicture(pictureId);

Remove the plural letters A, B, C, D, ...etc from the same enemies in battle,
set it in the parameter to keep it or remove it.

Set how many items you can carry per item, weapon, armor (if they can stack).
You can use JavaScript to control the item like: <Item Limit: $gameVariables.value(12)>
to store the max Item Limit in there whatever the value may be.

Set in the item notetag <prevItem> or <onUse: x>, upon using the item, with <preVItem>
it will take the item Id before the current item.
Example, you have the next in the database:
2: empty Bottle
3: empty Vial
10: potion 1/3 (in notetag <onUse: 2) you lose item 10 and gain item 2
11: potion 2/3 (in notetag <preVItem>) you lose item 11, and gain item 10
12: potion 3/3 (in notetag <preVItem>) you lose item 12, and gain item 11
the notetag <onUse: x> is optional, x can be a valid JS if it returns a number.
if you dont use the notetag <onUse: x> the item is lost as normal.
You can also have a change to consume the item upon using the item.
use the tag <useChance: 0.5> for 50% change.
You are able to combine them, so you can get a previous item <prevItem> or <onUse: x>
when the item is used when you use the tag <useChance: x>.

Show the items number when you reach the amount for items, armor, weapons, keyitems.
default is 0 which always shows the item number when reaching 1.
if set to 5, the item number is drawed at when the item possession reached 6.
it's recommended to either either choose 0 (always) or 1 (at counting 2 or more.)

There are times you can buy stuff, but not enough gold, if you set it to ON,
you can go under your currency.
When that happens, you can decide what happens when they go under it.
you can kick the party out of the store or pay back the gold they owned first
before they can buy new stuff.
When its OFF, it uses the default behavior.

Set a variable to store the gold spent/gained from buying/selling items,
the same can be done for variables bought items and sold items.
BECAREFUL WITH ACHIEVEMENT AS THEY CAN CHEAT ON IT!

Run a Common Event after loading a saved game.

(for variables or conditional check on users System)
getTime() function has some usefull time parts that can set in a variable
or multiple variables to get the date you want to show.
Samples you can use in a variable or a Real Time System (must be set manually).
getTime() => returns default: "day" "fullMonth", "hour":"minutes"
getTime("string") can return the following if you them seperatly to read the systemTime.
"format" => get the format you set inside the parameters or default: DD-MM-YYYY
"hour" or "hr" => get the hours, number lower than 10 will convert it with a "0" in front
"minutes" or "min" => get the minutes, number lower than 10 will convert it with a "0" in front
"seconds" or "sec" => get the seconds , number lower than 10 will convert it with a "0" in front
"day" => get you the day of the week (1, 2, 3, ...)
"week" => get you the full Name of the week ("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", ...)
"month" => get the month Name fully ("January", "February", "March", ... etc)
"monthN" => get the month value, number lower than 10 will convert it with a "0" in front
"year" => get the full year (2023)
"curTime" => returns the time "16:50"
"curDate" => returns "wednesday 29 march 2023"
Inside the Parameter, you can set a custom Time Format (like the samples above).
The possible options for this format are slightly different.
"YYYY" = Year
"MM" = Month Number
"DD" = Day Number (1,2,3, ... 30, 31)
"HR" = Hours
"MIN" = Minutes
"SEC" = Seconds
"WDAY" = WeekDays (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday...)
"MONTH" = Month Name
Format samples:
getTime() => defaul: 11 August, 19:10
getTime("format") => get default parameter setup DD-MM-YYYY
getTime("format", "YYYY/MM/DD HH:mm"); => "2025/08/11 14:42"
getTime("format", "DD-MM-YYYY"); => "11-08-2025"
getTime("format", "DAY, DD MONTH"); => "Monday, August 11"

For debugging the event page to skip from start to end or parts can be done easy.
Use comment tag to start with "=>"" and end with "<=" to rule out a section.
sample:
text 1
text 2
=>
text 3
text 4
text 5
<=
text 6
text 7
text 8
This example show in the text message, text 1, text 2, text 6, text 7 and text 8

SDJB.DistanceEP(eventId, distance)
SDJB.DistanceEP(4, 6) <= checks if event 4 is 6 tiles away from the player (in diamond shape)
SDJB.DistanceEE(eventId1, eventId2, distance)
SDJB.DistanceEE(12, 6, 5) <= checks if event 12 is 5 tiles away from event 6 (in diamond shape)

SDJB.lock(); <= This will lock both events and player movement
SDJB.unlock(); <= This will unlock both events and player movement
SDJB.lockEvents(); <= This will lock all events
SDJB.unlockEvents(); <= This will unlock all events
SDJB.lockPlayer(); <= This will lock the player
SDJB.unlockPlayer(); <= This will lock the player

This unique trigger can be helpful, so what does <TriggerBoth> tag do.
By default, Event can be triggers with either "Event Touch" or "Player Touch".
By putting a NoteTag or Comment Tag <TriggerBoth>, this trigger both the
"Event Touch" and "Player Touch".
There are times you require both, now you can, permantly or temporarily.

The Fancy Debug Log is intergrated into my base and for use easier use
for the shortcut to use.
sucLog(success, message)
infoLog(info, message)
warnLog(warning, message)
errLog(error, message)
set success, info, warning or error into quotes, message in qoutes unless a function
baseLog(message)
this uses the default console.log window

F5 button can be disabled (default: false).
When Disabled: the game won't reboot.
When Enabled: the game will reboot as normal.
NOTE: this does NOT work online because the refresh button still works.

Scriptcall: toggleSwitch(id)
this will toggle any switch ID to be OFF => ON or ON => OFF.

Scriptcall: setSS(mapId, eventId, letter, state)
Set a SelfSwitch on MapId, EventId, "A" "B" "C" "D", true/false.

Scriptcall: runCE(id)
Run a Common Event with the id specified.

Scriptcall: setTotalVar(base, calc)
Example: setTotalVar(1, 5)
This set the number in variable 1 to variable 5.
In case variable 5 has already a value, it will add the number to it.

Fix PlayTime to be accurate and FrameCount to avoid Game Freezes
as well for pixels on bitmap images.
Includes Mac15001900 SceneManager.update and SceneManager.updateMain

Fix scrolling function (move cursor down, left, right, up)
Improve selection in window, what is last, return to the first, up and down last item on the bottom.
this is not default as it stops on the last index and wont scroll/jump back to the top, so this is
implemented to make it work like that for smoother navigations.

Able to manipulate the fontSize settings.
Set a minimum MAX FontSize and a minimum MIN FontSize,
as well for increasing/decreasing with \{ and \}

Preload fonts that you use inside the game.
You can use it with plugin that change fonts midgame like YEP_MessageCore.

Fix letters on the Name Input window that aren't centered by default.
This fix it as many forget to do this when name input is used.

\S[id] checks the status "false" or "true" and could be used for debug
\MAP[n] will show you MapId's Names (not the Display Name). (no more typo's in Map Names).
\VA[id][index] will take a value from a variable array, arrays needs to be manually initilized.
Example : Variable 4 = [1,3,5,6,9,12], so \VA[4][1] takes the value 3 (array index starts with 0)
Example 2: Variable 4 = ["3", 4, "power", 5, "8"], so \VA[4][2] takes "power" (array start with 0)
\JS{eval code} will evaluate any javaScript code (under construction)
\CALC[3]+[4] ~ \CALC[3]-[4] ~ \CALC[3][4] ~ \CALC[3]/[4] are calculations of 2 variables values.
...add up....~...subtract...~...Multiply...~....Divide....

\WAIT[n] will wait x frames, this gives you a bit more control when the text continues.
More might come or with idea's to add them.

Add the following to any Item or Skill notetag you want to use a custom SFX:
<SE:[{
"name": "Filename",
"pan": 0,
"pitch": 100,
"volume": 100
}]>
Alternatively:
<SE:[{"name": "Filename", "pan": 0, "pitch": 100, "volume": 100}]>

Enclose the Filename in quotes ("File") without extension (.ogg).
Pan/Pitch/Volume are all numbers between 0-100
Leaving it empty will result in the default System SE.

Play all Common Events in a row that is set, otherwise, only the last one will play.
This will remove a common event in the queue and play the next one.

Fix the MoveRoute from events than start over from a move route when you interacted with it.
