Description:
  • In the "Show Text..." command window, there's another check box, "Keep," that will make the text box stay on screen until another "Show Text..." command is used, or the "Hide Text" command is used.
  • A new event command, "Hide Text," which closes the text box"
Code for implementation:
I'm not a programmer...

Mockups:

Why is this feature good?
  • I use a lot of move route commands in my cutscenes to make them more interesting and add personality and emotion. However, the text box closes and then immediately re-opens whenever a character simply changes direction, which looks off to me. This feature would fix that.
  • A text box would be able to be displayed while the player is moving around, perhaps showing important information.
Possible issues with this feature?
  • Hmm... It would mean adding another event command, which might require some rearranging of the event command window, maybe?

Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
