Try to insert this right above 'self.contents = Bitmap.new(width, height)'

Code: [Select]
p width, height

If you get a popup with 2 nils that is the reason of the failure.

I wouldn't know what's going on, unless you have Map with no name, except you have spaces in it.
That's all I can think of.

Try replacing the Win_Size class with the following -

Code: [Select]
class Win_Size < Window_Base
   
   def initialize(text)
      super(0, 0, 640, 480)
      self.contents = Bitmap.new(640 - 32, 480 - 32)
      @w = contents.text_size(text).width
      @h = contents.text_size(text).height
      if @w == 0
         @w = 200
      elsif @h == 0
         @h = 80
      end
      self.dispose
   end
   
   def [](value)
     if value == 0
       return @w
     else
       return @h
     end
   end

end

This way it should return 200 * 80 if the values are zero.

But I don't know how'd they would get that way in the first place.

And to disable the window on a map, just make the map have no name, no spaces either.

Well, something weird is going on here, because this is line 18 =

And the bitmap is created way before that...

Good script, I've got it working for the most part.  There's a problem though whenever I'm in an area where the Floating Location Window is active.  When I access the menu and then exit it, the FLW shows up again.  It only needs to show up when the player enters the area from an outside location.  Any idea how to fix this?

If you have just copied and pasted the script then you have

Just turn switch 5 off during cutscenes and on again afterwards.

Just change the values in 'POSITION = [2,3]'
Change the 2 and 3 to whatever value you feel like.

For the first value:
1 => left
2 => center
3 => right

For the second value
1 => top
2 => center
3 => bottom

So in this case the window will be placed in the center on the bottom of the screen.


I know this is rather sucky, but then again... I only used 10 minutes on this.
