RMMV I need a plugin that detects if two specified events are touching eachother

[jakeybreaky]

I have an enemy which is set to parallel, which will chase the player when it’s on screen. I basically need a plugin that can trigger a separate event once the player and the specified enemy touch.

Currently I’m using variables that track the player and the enemies X and Y coordinates, unfortunately the way I’m doing things now lags the heck out of the game as it is, and I’d eventually like to have as many as four of these enemies on screen at once.

Being able to set a conditional branch so “If Event 1 is touching Event 2 then:” would be ideal.

Anybody wanna take a crack at it?

theres a few ways this can be done with yanfly plugins.
event chase was made for this.
but the same setup could be made with move route core

the main point being changing the movement to an autonomous movement instead of parallel process so the trigger type can be changed to either player touch or event touch

$gameMap.distance($gameMap.event(Id1).x, $gameMap.event(Id1).y, $gameMap.event(Id2).x, $gameMap.event(Id2).y)

This calculates the distance betwen 2 Events.

Following scriptCall will Set a switch to True or False depending if the Distance betwen Event 1&2 is "1" or not.

// ScriptCall : "this.distanceOne(id1, id2, switchID);"
        Game_Interpreter.prototype.distanceOne = function(id1, id2, switchID) {
            var dst = $gameMap.distance($gameMap.event(Id1).x, $gameMap.event(Id1).y, $gameMap.event(Id2).x, $gameMap.event(Id2).y);
                If ( dst == 1 ) {$gameSwitches.setValue(switchID, true)} else {$gameSwitches.setValue(switchID, false)} ;
        };

Edit
But i think using an event chase player plugin and let that event get triggered with Player touch, should do the job aswell..
(i did something similar in one of my projects)

Hmm... This could work... I'll fiddle around with it a bit! Thanks!

This calcukates the disatnce betwen 2 Events.

Following scriptCall will Set a switch to True or False depending if the Distance betwen Event 1&2 is "1" or not.

        Game_Interpreter.prototype.DistanceOne = function(id1, id2. switchID) {
            var dst = $gameMap.distance($gameMap.event(Id1).x, $gameMap.event(Id1).y, $gameMap.event(Id2).x, $gameMap.event(Id2).y);
                If ( dst == 1 ) {$gameSwitches.setValue(switchID, true)} else {$gameSwitches.setValue(switchID, false)} ;
        };

Nice! Thanks!

Update: I ended up going with the Yanfly plugin. It took a little fiddling to get the event to do exactly what I wanted, but the game is running a lot smoother now.

you can also use this one, easy to setup (check the demo how too)

Thanks! I'll take a look at that one as well!
