It's finally time to release the first plugin in a series of coding projects I've been working at for pretty much two years now.
While I've been developing a few advanced plugins I kept running into situations where the limitations of RPGMZ again and again got in the way of designing sleek, powerful, easy-to-use plugins. This plugin is an answer that grew out of my frustrations. It deals with a series of limitations, provides comfortable & powerful function to make the life of developers easier and comes with a lot of examples that demonstrate their functions.
I've been working hard at getting everything set up these last few days, trying to release before christmas so I don't have to find some christmas theme to go with it. Depending on where you live, I managed it with 3 - 27 hours to spare, so I consider it a job well done.
This is not a christmas plugin. It just happens to be released a little close to christmas.
I've been wrestling a lot with the rollout of this plugin. There's a discord server I'm currently working on to provide some more direct feedback & communication platform. So yeah. I'm new at all of this, so please overlook the amateurishness of it.
This plugin is not the end - rather the beginning.
I'm planning to further develop & improve it with feedback from developers - advanced and inexperienced alike.
In addition there are a couple of plugins for Game Developers that are almost fully polished and hopefully will be released in January! One of them is my baby, the very thing that encouraged & forced me to drive my way through all the RPGMZ limitations. Can't wait to share it, but I'm gonna keep hush about it for a couple more weeks.
I hope this plugin will help you where you otherwise would get stuck and I'm looking forward to see what you'll create with the new pathways this plugin opens!

- Plugin Event Command (Plugin Commands in an event can now be triggered at event creation, erasure, page activation, deactivation as well as event initialization.)
- Map Tags (Map Tags and Map Data that can be assigned to a map's Notetag field can be automatically detected and linked to a function that plays at map creation or when a map is created that no longer has that Map Tag)
- Numerous Utility functions (JSON converter, regexifier, playtest checks, advanced evaluate and evaluate formula functions, advanced functionality for switches, variables, common events & code, object cloning, filename and filepath manipulation, color fetcher, easing functions, shuffle arrays function, object pathing, rest array conversion, random number & dice roll generator that's statistically sound, advanced image loader for multi-image loading and an image combiner to fuse images.
