[MV] Get any map's height/width

[TheOddFellow]

Question: How can I get the width and height of any map within my game?
"$dataMap.height" and "$dataMap.width" will get the data only of the map I am currently on.
I've tried using IDs in multiple ways to access data to maps I have previously made, but to no avail.

I've searched a lot of google, and checked out to see if there are answers to this question over several days. I've checked script call lists, googled ".height", "$dataMap", "$dataMap" and so on in many possible combinations.

Please, if anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Why? You might ask. Well, I'm building a game which has many different sizes, and instead of programming each event in, I would be using the difference in height and width to make the teleportation work.

hum map json are loaded only each time your transfer Scene with a ID .
You can store all map Json data in a globale if you want.
It called Cache
Maybe am wrong but I don't think Rmmv cache json.

So you need make your own cache loader at boot , and store all map data for access.
Example on my side

// ┌-----------------------------------------------------------------------------┐
// LOADER JSON
// special boot once loader for json
//└------------------------------------------------------------------------------┘
// $Loader.preLoad_Json();
_coreLoader.prototype.preLoad_Json = function() {
    // MapInfos and Scene### base
    const L0 = function(){
        const loader0 = new PIXI.loaders.Loader();
        for (const key in this._JsonPath) {
            loader0.add(key, this._JsonPath[key]);
        };
        loader0.load();
        loader0.onProgress.add((loader, res) => {
            this.loaderSet[res.name] = res.data;
        });
        loader0.onComplete.add((loader, res) => {
            L1.call(this);
        });
    };
    L0.call(this);
    const L1 = function(){
        // Scene_Map
        const loader1 = new PIXI.loaders.Loader();
        this.loaderSet.Scene_Map = {};
        this.loaderSet.MapInfos.forEach(map => {
            if(map){
                const id = map.id.padZero(3);
                const path = `data/Map${id}.json`;
                loader1.add(id, path);
            };
        });
        loader1.load();
        loader1.onProgress.add((loader, res) => {
            this.loaderSet.Scene_Map[res.name] = res.data;
            res.data.data = null; // clear the rmmv data
        });
        loader1.onComplete.add((loader, res) => {
            L2.call(this);
        });
    };

    const L2 = function(){
        // Scene_Map .DATA
        const loader2 = new PIXI.loaders.Loader();
        this.loaderSet.MapInfos.forEach(map => {
            if(map){
                const id = map.id.padZero(3);
                const path = `data/Map${id}_data.json`;
                loader2.add(id, path);
            };
        });
        loader2.load();
        loader2.onProgress.add((loader, res) => {
            this.loaderSet.Scene_Map[res.name].data = res.data;
        });
        loader2.onComplete.add((loader, res) => {
            L3.call(this);
        });
    };

    const L3 = function(){
        // build planet information
        this.loaderSet.PlanetsInfos = {};
        for (const key in this.loaderSet.Scene_Map) {
            const data = this.loaderSet.Scene_Map[key].data;
            const planetID = data.planet;
            // registering all planet id existe from rmmv comment json
            if(planetID && !this.loaderSet.PlanetsInfos[planetID]){
                this.loaderSet.PlanetsInfos[planetID] = {};
            };
            // scan all game maps and store sheets need for each planet id
            for (const sheetKey in data.sheets) {
                this.loaderSet.PlanetsInfos[planetID][sheetKey] = data.sheets[sheetKey];
            };
        };
       this._scene.isLoading = false; // allow continue scene laoder
    };
};

Don't worry about memory, json string take very small memory slots.
Or maybe your can have issue if your have 512 mo memory ram ! but we are in 2018!

This seems... Awfully complex... Or, perhaps the answer to my question requires as such. My maps will be changing a lot, and I needed a simple way to teleport only using different maps widths and heights.
Like; "$gameVariables.value()" or the like?
