Plugging MV #12 Sliding Text & Notifications | STOP INTERACTING WITH EVERYTHING!

Discord Invite: https://discord.gg/hVVdm5Z 'Plugging MV' is a series where I showcase interesting (community-made) plugins for RPG Maker MV, as I discover them myself, while going through a list of 4000+ plugins. #RPGMaker #Plugin #Cutscene

PLUGIN: YKNR_SlideInformation.js

This plugins allows us to slide in some text (on the screen) from the right, which then slides out after a bit. (All this happens, without the game being paused in any way. So the player can move around while the text slides in & out.)

Programmer: Yakinori Tested on Version: 1.5.1

DOWNLOAD LINKS: note: the latest version 2.0.0 of this plugin does not work on RPG Maker MV 1.5.1, but the version 1.0.0 does work. And so, I'm providing the links for both the older version, and the latest version.

Older version: (for RPG Maker MV 1.5.1) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hCc5lNnqI-45IKrE9RZyjOeTmXN3F5-s/view?usp=sharing

Latest Version: https://github.com/Yakinori0424/RPGMakerMVPlugins/blob/master/plugins/YKNR_SlideInformation/YKNR_SlideInformation.js (Right click on 'Raw' and select "Save link as...")

HOW TO: Just run the following plugin command: お知らせの表示 Text

The word "Text" will slide into the screen from the right, and slide out in 150 frames. You can replace "Text" with any other text. (The text also accepts escape codes.)

There's an issue though. The plugin command does not accept any space inside the text. If you run the following plugin command, お知らせの表示 This is a vase.

...then only "This" will be displayed. The rest of the text, won't be. There's a workaround to this, (ti.e here's a way to force in a space character,) so it's all good.

We're going to name one of our actor as a 'single space', and then using our text escape codes, we're going to insert that character's name, (which is only a single space character,) inside the plugin command's text section.

To do this, open up your database in RPG Maker MV, and select the Actors window. Put the name & nickname of the fourth actor, as a single space. (Just go to the name box, delete any name that's in there, and press 'space' once. That's it.)

Next, by using the escape code \N[0004] in our plugin's text, we can insert the fourth actor's name between words. and so, お知らせの表示 This is a vase. becomes, お知らせの表示 This\N[0004]is\N[0004]a\N[0004]vase.

\N[0004] here would transform into a single space. And so the text displayed would be, "This is a vase." Note: If you run any event while the sliding text is being displayed, the text closes itself.

PARAMETERS: You have parameters to change the animation of the text sliding in & out. You can change the width and height of the window, and padding & size & font of the text, and so forth. (Open the plugin in a text editor, and ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z16AE5PMU38
