Looks cool, seems like a nice idea for a plugin.


Link seems to be down though.

@ct_bolt Oops, named the file CGMZ_Holidays.zip instead of CGMZ-Holidays.zip

It should be fixed now

Looks nice Good job

Can you extend this for say like an animal crossing/harvest moon type game?
I'm willing to pay you handsomely. Send me a PM for more info.

I have a question: can you set a daily/weekly/whatever event that can be unlocked by completing some sort of task that operates on a switch?

 

[casper667]

@AeroPergold You could make the event require both the daily/weekly/etc switch and the task that operates on a switch.
So in your event conditions you would put the holiday switch and then for the second switch you'd put the switch from your game that you turn on after some task has been completed.

Hi all, fixed a bug with this plugin today that could have affected CGMZ plugins placed above it in the Plugin Manager:

Version 1.0.1
- Fixed bug with plugin commands causing conflict with other CGMZ plugins

 

[casper667]

Hi all,

Added a demo for this plugin today in case anyone was confused on how to use it, you can play it in-browser or download it from the plugin's main page on my website: https://www.caspergaming.com/plugins/cgmz/holidays/

I just love systems that simulate calendars. You did a great job! Dog day was a great idea! Very good!

 

[AeroPergold]

I think there's an issue where the holiday plugin would trigger a switch for a weekly event to play on say a thursday but once the weekly event is over, somehow the switch isn't disabled and stays on thus the weekly event isn't so weekly. Can this be looked into?

 

[casper667]

@AeroPergold could you provide start/stop time for the weekly event that is staying on?

@AeroPergold could you provide start/stop time for the weekly event that is staying on?

I have an event that starts on sunday (Weekday 0, Hour 0 meaning at midnight) and ends on monday at hour 0 (Weekday 1, at midnight).

Currently as I'm writing this it is Tuesday and the switch that the plugin turns on is currently still on alongside a switch for an event that plays on Thursdays from 6 AM to 6 PM and is still on from last week.

I should also mention that I haven't tampered with the switches and the only times I touched them is when I had to turn one off so I could test a sidequest since the character would be gone from a certain location during a weekly event and is supposed to reappear in said location and be able to give out a sidequest after the weekly event is over.
