Conditional branches are one example of where the engine can call Javascript code provided by the user. They're processed by the function Game_Interpreter.prototype.command111 at lines 9183 to 9318 in rpg_objects.js, and lines 9306 to 9308 of that function handle the case where the condition must evaluate Javascript code. They read:
But that code calls eval on a string containing Javascript code every time the conditional branch is executed, and eval in Javascript is noted for being slow. It appears that it could be replaced with the following code, which will cause the eval call to be made only once per map visit:
I've tested this with a simple condition, and it seems to work, but are any performance improvements likely? Or is this likely to break horribly in a way that I've overlooked?
Code:
case 12: // Script
result = !!eval(this._params[1]);
break;
Code:
case 12: // Script
if (typeof(this._params[1]) === 'string') {
eval('this._params[1] = () => ' + this._params[1]);
}
result = !!this._params[1]();

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
