This is my first released plugin, a plugin to generate random numbers after initializing a generator with a seed.

Seed initialized random numbers? Seeded random generators differ from the built-in random numbers because you can initialize it with a value to force always the same sequence of numbers.

If you set a seed of '20', rolling dices will be, 3,4,5,3,2,1,2,3,3,4,3
If you set again a seed of '20', rolling dices will be, 3,4,5,3,2,1,2,3,3,4,3 (exactly the same)

But, if you set the seed to 21, rolling dices will be 6,3,2,1,9,8,3,2 (different now)

Plugin allows to use event_id + map seed (and others combinations) to always roll the same random numbers on
that event, or map, or character leader, or whatever you want.

English it's not my language, corrections on this post or in the plugin help page are welcome.

Documentation avaiable on the script help page, here some examples:

Example 1:
PluginCommand SeedRandomInit <- Initialize for this event and map
PluginCommand SeedRandom 10 100 <- Roll a 100 sides dice, put the result on system variable 10
* Always the same result on that event on that map, no matter how many times you roll the dice.

Example 2:

PluginCommand SeedRandomInit M 12 <- Initialize with a seed composed of this map, and system variable 12 value
PluginCommand SeedRandom 10 100 <- Roll a 100 sided dice, put the result on system variable 10
* Always the same result on that map, until system variable 12 value changes.

Example 3:
PluginCommand SeedRandomInit M E C N 12 <- Initialize with a seed composed of MapId, EventId, CharacterLeaderId , EventName,and SystemVariable12 value
PluginCommand SeedRandom 10 100 <- Roll a 100 sided dice, put the result on system variable 10
* Always the same result on that map, and on that event, until system variable 12 value changes, or event name changes, or first character on the party changes.

This plugin uses and includes the random seed generation lib by David Bau,

He mad, but he cute :kaopride:

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

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!
