• <Version 1.0> 05.29.2009 - Original Release

---

Basically, it allows you to set a code in a message that will make it so that the player cannot skip the message but has to wait for it to draw completely before going forward with the message.

• Allows you to disable text-skipping with a simple message code
• Should be compatible with most other message scripts

Place above Main and below other custom scripts. To disable text-skipping in a message, simply put \% anywhere in the message.

#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Description:
#
#    This little add-on allows the game maker to disable text skipping by the
#   user with the message code \%, placed anywhere in the message. It disallows
#   skipping only on a message to message basis, unlike in the ATS, which
#   toggles the ability to skip mid-message.

#  Summary of Changes:
#    aliased method - update_show_fast, start_message, finish_message
#    new method - ma_skip_disabled?

No known compatibility problems.

This script is a feature extracted from my ATS. But, since it is a useful feature and not all people want an entire message system for one little feature, I decided to make it its own little script. It's not as functional as the one in the ATS since I didn't want to destroy your compatibility with all other message systems ever, and so I didn't directly modify the drawing loop. Basically, the one in the ATS allows you to disable and re-enable skipping mid-text, while this one you can only disable skipping for entire messages.
