RMMV A way to disable certain menu elements on certain conditions without disabling the entire menu?

Good day!

In my game there is one certain area where I want to disable Item, Equip and some other menus but still let player have access to the rest (like Options, Save/Load, Quest Journal, etc). The best would be to hide them, but just disabling them would also be fine.

I found this code (can't remember already, where exactly):
def item if $game_switches[51] == true $game_system.se_play($data_system.decision_se) $scene = Scene_Item.new else $game_system.se_play($data_system.cancel_se)
It prevents from using items if switch is on, but I still can access the menu. Maybe there is a way to modify it somehow?

Since you don't mind hiding them there's a pretty simple way, although i'm not sure what this "Quest Journal" that you mentioned is, a plugin by chance?
Either way, if it's only the base menu commands you can do so by using this.
$dataSystem.menuCommands

With this command you have access to:
"item", "skill", "equip", "status", "formation", "save"

Example on how to use it:
In a script call you can type, in order to hide the "item" tab.
$dataSystem.menuCommands[0] = false

If you want to re-enable it you can type this instead:
$dataSystem.menuCommands[0] = true

The only thing you would change at most is the number "0" corresponding to the index of the command, which you can check just above the example i posted, the starting index being 0, of course.

One last detailed is that the code you posted is not javascript, i assume it's Ruby?
Hope this helped you!

Thank you! It worked!
And yes, Quest Journal is added by Yanfly's plugin.

It's a bit sad that I only can hide default menus (I actually wanted to hide menu added by Stat Allocation plugin as well), but it's not that big of a deal.
My main concern was that character could eat, drink and use equipment while being in a dream world This won't happen now thanks to you.

And the code... yeah, probably. It was for... RPG Maker XP, if I recall correctly.

All of Yanfly's plugins that show on the menu have Plugin Commands to disable and enable them. Just check the documentation.

Thanks for the tip. I guess I've skipped that part.
