Fishy Day Night Cycle 1.0.0
Laugexd
Introduction
This plugin allows you to quickly and easily add a day-night system to your game using the plugin parameters.
If you want to change the time manually at any point in the game, like for a cutscene as an example, you can just update the variable that the time is set to in the plugin parameters and the plugin will automatically use the new value.
Features
- The ability to set up screen tints for specific times of the day
- Automatically applies these screen tints
- An option to transition the screen tint to the next screen tint smoothly over time instead of abruptly
- The ability to prevent the plugin from tinting the screen on specific maps
- Save the current time in variables, 1 for the current minute of the hour and 1 for the current hour
- An option to use real-world time instead of in-game time
How to Use
- Install the plugin and set up your screen tints
- Set up the variables you want to save the minute and hour to
- Create a parallel common event
- Add the plugin command “init” from this plugin
- Add a wait of 60 frames after this plugin command
- Turn on the switch to activate your common event and the plugin will be running
Plugin Commands
init
Should be run in a parallel common event with a 60 frame wait afterwards
forceTimeCheck
Running this plugin command forces the plugin to update tinting immediatly even if smooth tinting is on, this is useful if you were to change the time in a cutscene, doing this means you won't have to wait for smooth tinting to be done, and if smooth tinting is off it will be run in 1 frame instead of 60
