Initialize without overwrite the old initialization?

[nio kasgami]

Hello there ...

I am just curious I  want to create a new initialization but in same time I don't want to overwrite the old method

I use exemple the Scene_Map

but I want to add a new call in the initiation definition but without to have  to rewrite the whole initialization method...

i am not sure but  I think we can use

 the alias?

because i am not sure...I never use alias most of time

so for me this method seem a little darky and unknow to me

but if it is not the method to take it exist a way to make a initialization without overwrite the old initialization?

thanks to the people who will answer to my question~

Yes use alias:

alias old_initialize initialize def initialize old_initialize # call the old method your_stuff endBut be sure to take a unique name for your alias method instead of old_initialize.,

ho okai thanks you so if I want to do this is

alias nio_initialize initializedef initializenio_initializemapping_nameenddef mapping nameendso with that I will not forced to rewrite the default configuration?

Correct. Alias will create a copy of a method as it is at that time (so the position in the script list matters at this point) and stores it in the new name you provide. Make sure the new name is unique, or you may run into some issues down the road with other scripters and maybe even yourself.
