Some Popup 2.8 mikb89 ​ Introduction
# Some Popup v 2.8
# XP version
# by mikb89
# Details:
# Show some popup text when facing an event.
# Text can be placed in center of screen, over the player or over the event.
# Write [pop] in a comment to assign the popup to an event and write in the
# next comment the text that will be shown.
# NOTE: [pop] is by default, but you can change it in the settings.
# Text can be also grayed, to indicate a non-available something. To do so,
# write [npop] instead of [pop].
# You can also show a picture instead of text. In order to do this, the first
# comment must be [ppop] and the second will contain the name of the Picture.
# It is possible to play a sound/music effect for each event. Just write in a
# third comment these lines:
# SE (or ME or BGM or BGS)
# Audio filename
# Volume (1-100)
# Pitch (50-150)
# You can omit the two last lines, and they will be set by default:
# Volume 80 for BGS and SE, 100 for BGM and ME
# Pitch 100
# ATTENTION: comments have to be the first two (or three) commands of the event.
#
# You can also call a script with:
# $game_player.remove_town_sprite
# in it to remove the sprite. For example if you put the sprite on an event
# which you'll speak, with this code you can remove the popup.
# Configurations:
module SPOP
ID = "pop" # set "loc" for old version compatibility.
# What you have to write on a event to be identified as popup one.
# If the value here is for example "pop" you'll have to write:
# - [pop] for the common text popup;
# - [npop] for the grayed out popup;
# - [ppop] for the picture popup.
AUTO_REMOVE_AT_TRANSFER = true
# Test to understand what I mean.
# true - gives the same effect as the one in Chrono Trigger towns.
# false - let the popup be visible after the teleport. Will fade out at the
# first player movement.
GRAYED_COLOR = Color.new(255,245,255,175)
# Value of grey color. Red, green, blue, alpha. From 0 to 255.
WALK_8_DIR = true
# You don't have to include the 8dir script. Just set true this.
POPUP_TRANSITION = 9
# The effect of the popup appearing/disappearing.
# 0: no effect
# 1: fading in/out
# 2: movement up/down
# 3: movement & fading
# 4: reduced movement
# 5: reduced movement & fading
# 6: zoom in/out
# 7: zoom & fading
# 8: zoom & movement
# 9: zoom, movement, fading
# 10: zoom & reduced movement
# 11: zoom, reduced movement, fading
POPUP_SOUND = ["SE", "046-Book01", 80, 100]
# Play something on popup.
# 4 parameters:
# 1. Sound kind ("SE", "ME", "BGS", "BGM");
# 2. Name of the file;
# 3. Volume (0-100);
# 4. Pitch (50-150 (or 15-453 if you want MAXIMUM values)).
# To deactivate sound just set "" the 2. or set 0 to 3. Examples:
# POPUP_SOUND = ["SE", "", 80, 100]
# POPUP_SOUND = ["SE", "046-Book01", 0, 100]
# Won't be played.
# Eventual BGM or BGS playing will fade as the graphic fade/zoom/move and
# will start after the popup close. Obviously not valid if using SE/ME.
# Examples with ME, BGM, BGS:
# POPUP_SOUND = ["ME", "010-Item01", 100, 100]
# POPUP_SOUND = ["BGM", "023-Town01", 100, 100]
# POPUP_SOUND = ["BGS", "016-Drips01", 100, 100]
POPUP_BINDING = 2
# Where the popup should be binded.
# 0: center of the screen
# 1: over the player
# 2: over the event
end
# Others:
# You'll see 'town' everywhere in the script. This is because of the SECOND
# name given to this script: "Popup town name".
# The FIRST original name was "Location system", from this the [loc] to add in
# event comments. By the way I never publicated the version with this name, so
# you won't find anything.
#Codename: spop
