Hello!
Me and a friend is working on something quite interesting. I'm right now researching how to read external files in order to
take the data in that file and change variables in switches. Set variables to different numbers, turn switches on and off.
The script needs to be active as it has to be able to check the file for changes rather frequently.
A script call function to load the file in RPGmaker and write a reset to that variable or switch could be useful as well so it can be turned off by the game. Or even locked for a certain time of frames.
As I can see without ingame control the constant reading of the file would keep overriding any type of event that has several stages.
Is there something out there that already does something similar?
Or does anyone have any helpful advice/information?
Me and my friend will try to make this work ourselves, at this moment we are in the research stage.
Cheers!
And thank you for your time =)

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.
