Here's a July-October summary~
Happy new year everyone! Here's the November-December update summary:
Oh, yes, MovingWindows is intended mostly for simple timed movement, e.g. move in, or sway to and fro. You could do "triggered" movement with a more complex formula, but the position would reset when the window closes.So many great plugins! Thank you for your work!
One question: how exactly Cae_MovingWindows plugin works?
Does it just add little animations to all the windows?
P.S. I was hoping there's a plugin which can make Show Message window move via Plugin Command or something
Hm... Yeah, that would be great. But I'm not sure how to do it since as I understand there are no Plugin Commands. I just want to change Window's coordinates via Script/Plugin command.
Oh, if you just want to set the message window's location, try something like this in a Script command:
var w = SceneManager._scene._messageWindow;
w.x = 0;
w.y = 200;Hm...Works great, but doesn't that mean I could imitate windows movement simply by gradually changing those coordinates in a parallel event?
You could, e.g.
w.y += 1;Oh, just noticed this. Are you testing in a new project, and from a New Game? Just tested and it seems to be working OK for me in a v1.6.2 project. Also, if you have other plugins enabled, you could try disabling them to see if that helps, maybe it's conflicting with some other plugin.
Unfortunately, I need all the plugins I'm using. Has to be some sort of compatibility issue.Oh, just noticed this. Are you testing in a new project, and from a New Game?

Sprite_Animation.prototype.updateDragonBonesPosition = function() {
var position = this._animation.position;
if (position === 3) return;
var battler = this._target._battler;
if (!this._target) return;
if (!this._target._battler && (this._target._battler !== undefined)) return;
if (battler !== undefined) {
var data = battler.isActor() ? battler.actor() : battler.enemy();
if (position === 0) {
this.y -= data.meta.dragonbone_height;
} else if (position === 1) {
this.y -= data.meta.dragonbone_height / 2;
}
var heightRate = battler.battler().getFloatHeight() + battler.battler().getJumpHeight();
var height = heightRate * data.meta.dragonbone_height;
this.y -= height;
} else {
var battler = this._target.parent._battler;
if (battler && battler.hasDragonBone) {
var data = battler.isActor() ? battler.actor() : battler.enemy();
if (position === 0) {
this.y -= data.meta.dragonbone_height;
} else if (position === 1) {
this.y -= data.meta.dragonbone_height / 2;
}
var heightRate = this.battler.battler().getFloatHeight() + this.battler.battler().getJumpHeight();
var height = heightRate * data.meta.dragonbone_height;
this.y -= height;
}
}
};Assuming that's the correct method (looks promising!), then I'm guessing this might work:
(function(alias) {
Sprite_Animation.prototype.updateDragonBonesPosition = function() {
var batt = this._target._battler;
if (batt && !batt.isTimeStopped()) alias.call(this);
};
})(Sprite_Animation.prototype.updateDragonBonesPosition);
Made a video with some cool tips and tricks for MV & MZ.
