• <Version 1.0.0> 2015-10-27 - Original Release

---

Set up events that are bound by the passability rules of boats, ships, or airships.

• Can make events that move randomly but restrict themselves to the water
• Easy to set up through first-line comments
• Can change vehicle passability for each page of an event

Save the script in your plugins folder and import it through the Plugin Manager.

To set vehicle passability for an event, you must set the first command for an event page to be a comment which includes one of the following codes:

        \vehicle[boat]
        \vehicle[ship]
        \vehicle[airship]

The vehicle type is determined on a page-by-page basis. If a vehicle event should update to a new page, it will need to have a new vehicle code or else it will revert to normal passability.

Post in this thread if you have any comments or questions. It is perfectly fine to post here even if this topic has not been posted in for a very long time.

Please do not message me privately, as any concerns you have are likely shared by others and they will benefit from our correspondence being public. Additionally, I am often absent, and posting publicly will allow other members to assist you when I am unable to do so quickly.

So, it turns out that I know nothing about javascript. This plugin is so simple that it is barely even useful, and I still feel like I coded it poorly.

You are welcome to use this script in any project of yours, whether it is commercial or non-commercial. There is no need to credit me, and please feel free to modify the plugin in whatever ways suit your project.

Basically, my plugin is your plugin, but please do not re-post this plugin or any modified version of it on another forum or website.

Jolly good show.

Was hoping MA would get to know Java.

Was not disappointed.

Looking forward to more!

OMG! MA is back for MV! :D :D Thanks!

Yay! It's nice to see you on the Javascript side, too! :D

I know exactly how you feel. I don't remember RGSS/Ruby being quite as, er, fun as this.

Still, any progress is progress and as time goes on you can only get better and feel more confident. That's what I keep telling myself at least.

It definitely looks pretty, though (all of your scripts do)! :D It'll be that much easier to go back later and simplify stuff.

Half of the other students in my c++ class produce some pretty messy code. T-T

As someone who only knows visual basic, I envy all of you. ;9

I wouldn't envy anyone that has to take c++. ;9

It's  e v i l  . . .

Please stay on topic.
