Features
This is a small plugin that will allow you to adjust how frequently animated map tiles update. It also provides the ability to add an on/off option to the in-game Options window, for slower systems (e.g. mobile) on which animated tiles may cause lag.
How to Use
Download the attached .js file and place it in your project's folder, under js/plugins. Then open RMMV, go to Tools > Plugin Manager, double-click an empty line to add a new plugin, and select this plugin from the drop-down list. To edit the values of any of the parameters displayed to the right of the drop-down, double-click them in the list.
Troubleshooting
If you experience problems with this plugin that you want to report, please post here and include the following:
- Instructions stating how to reproduce the problem in a new project.
(If I can't reproduce the problem, I probably can't help you.) - A screenshot of the console when the unexpected behaviour occurs.
(You can open the console by pressing F8 during test-play.)
Terms of Use
Free to use, repost, and/or modify, for commercial or non-commercial projects.
