DMV Map Buttons

[Bernkastel]

Great mod, thanks for all the awesome plugins you have been making. 

can you make 1 more button that appears in the top corner whenever any of these open? one that uses icon 74 or something that will close the menu that you just opened? this map button thing is great for playing the game with a mouse but then you have to reach for the keyboard again to exit.

That does sound a great addition and I will likely add it to a future version.

Right mouse click will close the currently open menu.

Can you add a feature which allows us to hide/reveal an icon or change its position whenever we trigger it in events?

 

[Luminous]

is it possible to resize the size of the button?

It will be good if we can get larger or change the icon to a picture file
Thanks for Nice plugin dekita ^^

Ok, here is a list of things to come in the next version of this;

* 10 more default button slots (unused, for you - the user -  to setup)

* Control over icon buttons via script call (maybe plugin commands, not decided yet)

* Option of using a custom image for buttons instead of iconset.

* Bug Fix: Disallow buttons to be triggered whilst event running - ie, chatbox is opened.

I'm mega swamped atm with a minigame for the good v evil thing, but I will be updating my plugin releases as soon as I have finished it.

Glad we've been able to help you debug and you're not all one-time deal.

 Dekita has never been a one time deal , i still use quite a few of his Scripts in most of my ACE projects, hopefully we will see some of them ported over.

All in all this is amazing cant wait for the next update*opens PS and starts designing pretty menu buttons for touch/mouse interface*

Well, it's appreciated that he's willing to work on updating his plugins. I know much of the community does so as well but most would be too lazy to do so.

Edit: You can ignore this. I had a question here, but I was silly and it's a very easy thing to do.

This plugin is an amazing addition to make the game more mobile friendly! Will you eventually include the ability to offset it or place it at an specific orientation and side?

You are able to position each button individually via the plugin options.

Merging with the thread for the plugin.  If you need help with a plugin, please post IN the thread for the plugin rather than starting a new one.

huh? what did you merge in here?

 

[Joronjo]

Can the button display be toggled through a switch? Like if I wanted to make a game that makes it optional (for people that prefer to use keys over mouse)

I'm afraid I'm having trouble working with your pluggin. I tried working from a blank project with only using the MVCommon, DMV_Core, and this pluggin in said order, but the icons are not showing up on the screen? Am I missing something?

Not as of yet, but it is part of the 'button control' features I intend to implement in the next version.

hmmm, Okay i got the script working and 1.) OMG! this makes so many basic actions less annoying! thank yo so much for doing this! here are some general notes i found. if there is a solution already in the script do tell me.

1.) "right click" doesn't exist on mobile so how do you exit a menu when called up?

2.) How do you equip or use spells on people in your party that are not the actor in slot 1? for example i tried to equip an ax on my dwarf in the 3rd character slot but there was no way to toggle over to him in the pop up. it just defaults to the main character. this also goes to items as well. this is kinda a deal breaker for me right now if i can't figure this out. Otherwise the default menu, while annoying, functions better.

3.) clicking any button in the hot bar comes with a half second delay while the default doesn't. is this normal?

 

[??????]

1 - double tap works as right click for mobiles I am sure.

2 - I am not sure how you do the change actor function on mobiles, but for desktop computers you can press Q/W whilst in the scene to change actor.

3 - Yep, this is because the scene is being triggered when the clicked button is RELEASED, and then scenes have a small delay for stating also. So yea, that delay is expected.

oh, thank you so much for the reply. q/w defiantly works. so i'm super happy about that. If i use this i will have to make a tutorial (or some window that tells you this when your on a screen that uses it) for the player though because those keys q/w aren't the most intuitive for a first time player. Overall thorough awesome script!
