[RGSS3] RETCON Library - Detecting current entry

[ZirconStorms]

Script is called RETCON LIBRARY: JOURNAL by McDohl.
Link: https://rpgmaker.net/scripts/272/

I'm trying to detect the current entry that the Journal window is showing, in order to adjust info shown in a custom window. I feel like it has to do with this line (approx. line 338):

entry = $game_party.journal[@page.currentpage][0].to_str

but I don't know what the first line should be in order to achieve something along the lines of:

case [code to figure out the entry array being used]
when 1 (AKA when the player is looking at the first entry in the module)
then [insert custom text + refresh window].
when 2
same process.
etc...

if you're doing this inside Scene_Journal itself

case @journalwindow.page.currentpage

if on other Class

case SceneManager.scene.journalwindow.page.currentpage

But for the 2nd code to work, you might need to add this first

class Scene_Journal
  def journalwindow
    return @journalwindow
  end
end

Also these would only work if you are inside the Journal scene as the "page" doesnt exist unless you're on that scene.

Doing it in Scene_Journal itself gives this error:


example of code in use, right now:

case @journalwindow.page.currentpage
when 1
msgbox("test 1")
when 2
msgbox("test 2")
else
end

Add this code then

class Window_Journal
  def page
    return @page
  end
end
