Summary

Remote Event Counting and Control by Dahlys Download Link​*Update 09/24: This plugin is dead. Please see my Universal Remote Control instead Introduction:

Features Mentioned

• Count the number and log the IDs of Event Names containing the word(s) of interest.
• e.g. If all NPCs have NPC in their event name, you can store their Event IDs in a variable as an array. The total number of NPCs on the map can also be stored into a variable.
• An array of strings ["Tom", "Dick", "Harry"] can be used as input as well as individual strings "Tom", "Dick", "Harry"
• Remote control Self-switches by matching Event Names, works for Yanfly's self-switch plugin!
• e.g. If all children have "child" in their event name, you can turn on their self-switch to make them all flee from you at once in a game of tag. No need for a common event/global switch and parallel processes all over the place.
• e.g. If you type a string or array of strings into a variable (via another plugin (http://biud436.tistory.com/58) or script call), you can drop a lightning bolt on "EnterNameHere" anywhere on the same map.
• Set your own conditions to whether the Event ID will be included or not.
• Some javascript knowledge required
• Script calls from other plugins can be used in conditions. I have not yet found any conflicts with Yanfly, LTN, Galv, Hime, Khas, and Orange.
• e.g. Choose to exclude dead NPCs who have self-switch "D" on.
• Once Event IDs are stored in a variable, they can be used as a source array for further functions. This prevents having to loop through every single event on the map when you just want to activate/search through a subset of events.
• More detail on plugin functions and usage is found in the plugin help box.
• Please read carefully especially when using conditions involving Event IDs. e.g. Checking if their dead/alive self-switch is on. Also watch out for special javascript characters.
