Hi,
some month ago, I wanted to make a script, where you use different backgrounds for all scenes.
My first attempt was to write something like this:
So like you see, it will be a bit difficult for a non-scripter, to add custom scenes without copy whole code parts and change scene_names.
I tried to solve this by iterate trough SCENE and apply changes only to the scenes included in the constant, but I failed, cause I didnt know how to do this.
Now, some month later, I have learned something about meta-programming.
This is how i could write it now:
My question now is, if it is ok to write code like that above or stick with the old code?

module CONFIG SCENES = {Scene_Menu => "background1", Scene_Item => "background2"}endclass Scene_Menu alias create_background_old create_background def create_background if CONFIG::SCENES.include?(self.class) @background = Sprite.new @background.bitmap = Cache.menu(CONFIG::SCENES[self.class]) else create_background_old end endendclass Scene_Item alias create_background_old create_background def create_background if CONFIG::SCENES.include?(self.class) @background = Sprite.new @background.bitmap = Cache.menu(CONFIG::SCENES[self.class]) else create_background_old end endend#and so on

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
