Help text for choices?

[Tiptank]

Hi,

I'm looking for a script which helps me to implement something like a help window to choices. While scrolling through the choices, I want to display a messages window which shows what the choice actually does. For example if the player hovers over choice 2, there should be a message text like "this choices helps you to do xy..." The message should change immidiately if I go up to choice 1. Then, there should be a help text which explains to the player what choice 1 does, before the player decides to take choice 1.

I hope you know what I mean.

Would be thankful to have such a script.

'Scripts' is where people who have written completed scripts they want to share with others can post them. It is not for asking for scripts.

You might look at this script by Modern Algebra. It does what you describe. It is the only one I am aware of which does this, though there might be others out there that I haven't come across.

I wrote one in the past: https://github.com/theoallen/RGSS3/blob/master/Untranslated/Choice Helps.rb
Although not yet translated.

The usage would be like this.

TheoAllen: Thank you. I'll try it out. Is it compatible with Hime - Choice Options?

Not sure. You can try though.

The thing is I hide some choices with hime's script. Tried it, but it won't work well. When I display a hidden choice and it is choice 2, then it has the text that the former choice with number 2 had before.

I found this one https://www.rpgmakercentral.com/topic/8847-help-window-for-choices/
but it's also not compatible with Hime - Choice Options. Can someone help me?

I would like to know the answer. I've been trying to figure this out myself.
