Floating Location Window

Do you want a window to pop up everytime you enter a new map area? Just insert this above main.

Code: [Select]

class Scene_Title
  #Dubealex Addition (from XRXS) to show Map Name on screen
$map_infos = load_data("Data/MapInfos.rxdata")
for key in $map_infos.keys
$map_infos[key] = $map_infos[key].name
end
end
class Game_Map
#Dubealex Addition (from XRXS) to show Map Name on screen
def name
$map_infos[@map_id]
end
end
class Window_Float_Location < Window_Base
   def initialize(location = '')
      super(0,416,232,64)
      self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
      self.contents.font.name = 'Times New Roman'
      self.contents.font.size = 22
      self.opacity = 100
      self.back_opacity = 100
      @location = location
      @wait_count = 70
      show_location
   end
   def show_location
      self.contents.clear
      self.contents.font.color = normal_color
      w = self.contents.width
      h = self.contents.height
      self.contents.draw_text(0,0,w,h,@location,0)
      wait
   end
   def wait
     loop do
       self.update
       @wait_count -= 1
       if @wait_count == 0
         break
       end
     end
     self.dispose
   end
   def update
     Graphics.update
   end
end
class Scene_Map
  def transfer_player
    # Clear player place move call flag
    $game_temp.player_transferring = false
    # If move destination is different than current map
    if $game_map.map_id != $game_temp.player_new_map_id
      # Set up a new map
      $game_map.setup($game_temp.player_new_map_id)
    end
    # Set up player position
    $game_player.moveto($game_temp.player_new_x, $game_temp.player_new_y)
    # Set player direction
    case $game_temp.player_new_direction
    when 2  # down
      $game_player.turn_down
    when 4  # left
      $game_player.turn_left
    when 6  # right
      $game_player.turn_right
    when 8  # up
      $game_player.turn_up
    end
    # Straighten player position
    $game_player.straighten
    # Update map (run parallel process event)
    $game_map.update
    # Remake sprite set
    @spriteset.dispose
    @spriteset = Spriteset_Map.new
    # If processing transition
    if $game_temp.transition_processing
      # Clear transition processing flag
      $game_temp.transition_processing = false
      # Execute transition
      Graphics.transition(20)
    end
    location = $game_map.name
    float_location = Window_Float_Location.new(location)
    # Run automatic change for BGM and BGS set on the map
    $game_map.autoplay
    # Frame reset
    Graphics.frame_reset
    # Update input information
    Input.update
  end
end

Yes I realize the code itself isn't that pretty, but I'll clean it up later, it was a quick job.

BTW: credit to dubealex for the location name itself.

Great script! but is there a way to make it so you can walk while it says the location?

No answer? Seems kinda mean =\ (   Sorry for double post =[  )

Well you happened to pick the 3 hours I was at karate -_- lol.

I'm working on that atm lol.

EDIT: well, I can, but as soon as you move anywhere, you go straight in that direction until the window goes away no matter what you press; which shouldn't be happening, so...

Erm.. ummm.. can you not make it like a regular message window really? like have it auto bring up a message window?

if you want that you don't need a script..
put a message button on each teleporter

something like:

teleport(new map)
-message: Welcome to place X

and then you can have all sorts of useless stuff in the message ~_~

tsu , nice script, though being stuck until it goes away is sort of not the way i like it ~_~

ok, but is there a way to make it kinda transparent and on the bottom corse like that?

message display options button.
just don't show window and bottom

using slipknot's script or rm2k3 or rm2k you can even make the window go away after a certain period of time

To reduce the ammount of time the window shows, just find this line -

Code: [Select]

@wait_count = 70

And make the number lower.

yar.. but any lower than that will make the map name hard to read
i actually want it a little bit longer but allowing the game to keep going with it could be really nice... >>

Got it... done... works...

(I kept forgetting to update the input, so here it is, and it also fades out now. I just forget to update the graphics sometimes.)

Here ya go.

YOU ARE A GOD! lol This is perfect thank you

well done tsu

Nice scripts  

This could be very useful.

Does it work?

It works great!!!I think I'm going to shorten the time that the window is up though.. its up for like 5 seconds or somthing but nobugs from what Ive seen so far =]

*cough* there's only one, but it wont happen unless you go to a different map before the window goes away.

(it simply layers)

Can you like put a line or two that erases it when changed???

I found another bug. If you enter a map, the BGM of the new map won
