Philly

Introduction
CastTextPopup MZ adds short, customizable text popups above a battler whenever a skill or item is used in battle.
Perfect for spell quotes, battle one-liners, character flavor, or comic-style effects.


Instead of silent actions, your actors and enemies can now speak when they cast — bringing more personality and atmosphere to every fight.
* Note: Only works with Sideview Battle System.

Features

• Displays text popups above the skill or item user
• Works with skills and items
• Supports multiple lines per entry (randomly selected)
• Fully customizable:
  • Font size
  • Text color
  • Background color & opacity
  • Outline color & width
• Uses the system font (no extra assets required)
• Battle-only (no map or menu popups)
• Lightweight and easy to use
• No dependencies

How to Use
Add cast texts directly to skills or items:

<CastText: My spell!>
<CastText: Another line!>

Or use multi-line blocks:

<CastTexts>
Line one
Line two; Line three | Line four
</CastTexts>

If multiple texts are defined, one will be chosen at random each time the skill or item is used.
