(I think this is the right forum for this, I'm still learning to navigate the forums.)
I'm trying to implement a copper/silver/gold currency system (Like in Neverwinter or Dungeon's and Dragons table-top games) and I came across this plugin. The problem is that I'm very new to this. I've only just begun learning anything about Java Script and how Plugin's are used/built. I typically learn best by just jumping in and trying but I haven't gotten anywhere with this. I don't have any screenshots.
So, could someone either explain how this plugin is implemented or point me to a tutorial explaining the skills I need to understand this? That second one would be particularly helpful.
Edit: I realize now I failed to give enough information. The problem I'm having is once I have it installed, I'm having trouble with setting up the copper and silver. Do I need to set up a variable. All I can get to function is the default gold. And I have assumed that I just delete the name for the currency in the system options.
edit part two electric boogaloo:
I figured it out, I made this post then it suddenly started making sense. You do indeed need to set up a variable, then instead of using 'add gold' you use 'control variable'. The Yanfly video on how to set up a variable for there system was how I figured that part out.
Edit:
Why was this so hard to implement? You don't need variables or notes. Just plug it in, pick your images, make sure it's towards the bottom of the list, then enter the copper amount that the item is worth and it automatically calculates it to gold and silver. Enter 10 into the gold amount in the chest? you get a silver, just manually change the text. I went into this expecting it to be difficult to install and created a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Thank you everyone who followed me through this. Apparently, I just needed to make a post to be able to think straight. I did see when I was looking for help on this matter before that some people had a similar issue. Hopefully, this might be a resource for them if they're still looking for an answer.
