Greetings, Boils and Ghouls!

I am trying to amend the following function from the GALV_BasicEventShadows.js plugin:


I created another JS file- dismal_GALV_BasicEventShadows_Extended.js- which I have placed below aforementioned plugin in the Plugin Manager window):


And within it, is the following alias:


However, when I playtest my project, I get the following error:


I was wondering if anybody could tell me what I am doing wrong?

After mulling over it, I found out what the problem was-

Sprite_BasicShadow is a custom class created within GALV_BasicEventShadows.js 's Immediately Invoked Function Expression (IIFE) or Self Executing Anonymous Function ("(function(){})()").

So it's scope is limited to that and cannot be accessed outside of it.

Luckily, per Galv:


So all that I needed to do was copy the relevant code and paste it outside of the IIFE (after the "})()" part of the plugin).
