Bank Plugin [Version 2.0.2]

LMPGames · 2018-07-02T00:28:08+0900

Back again for my second RMXP script conversion plugin. This time it is a conversion/re-imagining of SephirothSpawn's Bank script. This one is a bit more complicated to use due to some weirdness but I am working on fixing that. Anyway, on to the plugin information: Demo Available: Yes, Geowil_BankDemo.zip Project Available: Yes, Geowil_BankProject.zip GitHub Project Page: https://github.com/Geowil/Geowil_Bank Version: 2.0.2 Conflicts: Maybe, see Conflicts section Terms of Use: Free non-commercially or commercially; just give credit Installation Instructions The files you will need are available at the github repository or in either the demo or the project. There is a custom image required, DepoButtonSet.png, for some buttons used in the deposit and withdraw menus. You will need to create a 'bank' folder in your img folder and place it there and then import the image into your project's resource manager if it is not automatically added. Finally place the plugin js file into your plugins folder. That's it, you're done! How does it work It is very simple to use. First you may want to modify some of the plugin settings to set things like if bonds are enabled and the denomination of time to use (Ie. hours, minutes, days). Next, if you do not enable bonds, all you have to do is put plugin commands into events where you want to access the bank(s) from. You can use the same bank across your entire game or have each major location have its own. The plugin commands to open the bank are as follows: Code: BankOpen The indicated the following: Code: ID:# - Required - Sets the bank id for a new bank or tells the plugin which existing bank to open IR:# - Optional - Sets the interest rate at the bank. Use this on an existing bank to change the interest rate of that bank TD: - Optional - Sets the time denomination at which interest compounds. Use this on an existing bank to change the time denomination at that bank MD:# - Optional - Sets the minimum deposit amount at the bank. Use on an existing bank to change the minimum deposit amount at that bank. Any params with 'Optional', when not used, will default to whatever you have set in your plugin parameters. The ID: parameter is always required. Some examples: BankOpen ID:0 BankOpen ID:0 IR:10 BankOpen ID:0 TD:Seconds MD:1000 BankOpen ID:0 IR:15 TD:Minutes MD:15000 Example 1: Opens a bank with plugin paramater defaults for all parameters Example 2: Opens a bank with a 10% interest rate and everything else defaults Example 3: Opens a bank with a time denomination of Seconds and a minimum deposit of 1000. Interest rate will be the plugin default Example 4: Opens a bank with an interest rate of 15%, a time denomination Current Features Overview Features in V2.0.1 -Deposit Gold: Players are able to deposit gold into the bank. If an interest rate is set then over the specified amount of time units (example hours) that interest rate will be comounded onto the deposited gold. As an example a deposit of 100 gold at a hand with an hourly interest rate of 10% would generate 10 extra gold over 1 hour. If the player returned to that bank after an hour, they will find 110 gold available for withdrawal. -Withdraw Gold: Players can withdraw any gold they have stored at a bank. -Bonds: Bonds are another way to allow a player to grow their gold through this plugin. The player buys a bond and then after a set amount of time the bond matures and can be sold for a greater value. The system can be turned on or off from the plugin settings or through a plugin command. -Minimum Deposits: You can now set a minimum deposit amount that the player must meet to deposit any gold. Parameters There are a total of six plugin parameters to customize the plugin with. I will list them and their functions. - Invalid Gold Color: Changes the text color on the gold counter when the user attempts to withdraw or deposit more gold that is available. - Invalid Bond Color: Changes the text color in the Sell Bond selection window for bonds which have not yet matured. - Font Size: Changes the font size used in the plugin. - Gold Counter Button 1 Value: Sets the value for the single arrow up/down buttons in the gold counter window when depositing or withdrawing gold as well as the value of the left/right keyboard arrow keys. - Gold Counter Button 2 Value: Sets the value for the double arrow up/down buttons in the gold counter window when depositing or withdrawing gold as well as the value of the up/down keyboard arrow keys. - Add Bond Overwrites: Determines if, when adding a bond to a bank, the add bond plugin command will overwrite an existing bond. Some important notes on this in the AddBond plugin command section. - Bond System Active: Sets the default state of the bond system for each bank when they are created. Use BondSystemEnabled plugin command to enable/disable on a per-bank basis. - Time Denomination: Sets the default time unit setting for all banks. Use the ChangeTimeUnit…

That was definitely the problem. But I ran into another issue - popping up at game start and not closing no matter what I do. Ruined the flow of my intro sequence and everything, and I have no idea why.

Are you calling the plugin command from anywhere that is either running automatically or in parallel or do you have a script call in one of your intro npcs? If the answer is no to all of that then it may be a YanFly plugin conflicting somehow, in which case what I said in my previous post stands and I will see if I can make a fix for you project..

Thanks.

Edit:

Also be sure to update your plugin command calls if you have not already done so, the BankOpen command has changed.

Thanks.

It was triggered by simply entering a battlefield sequence. And seeing that Yanfly is part of the presentation (and the battlefield trigger by extension) I would hate to strip that out.

EDIT: Another thing is that I have a big, red warning screen which - as you can probably guess - means the boss round is about to begin. Doubt it has anything to do with it, and I'm thinking another part of the Yanfly stuff I may pull is related to version backporting. (Probably the one that is going to go first just to rule that out.)

The first thing I would check for would be any switches you may be setting which could trigger either an event that runs parallel or automatically or possibly even a common event that has the BankOpen plugin command in it. I will set up a test project with your plugin list that you sent to me last month and see if I can recreate the issue you are seeing and attempt to fix it.

Thanks.

I will check when I get a chance to set things up for another edit. Right now I am in between places and will be for about two hours (plus or minus fifteen to thirty) but I will definitely check when I set up again.

Also, I have a plugin related to version backporting that I can get rid of which is part of the Yanfly stuff if you didn't catch my edit. And furthermore, I don't set any switches until after the first battlefield sequence is over (which is obviously meant to help in understanding the basics of dealing with active conflict situations by the time you're out in the field). Don't know if the variables plugin would do anything either seeing that I intend to use it for obvious reasons like for tracking game progress, objective completion, etc.

EDIT: And it's ready. For simplicity and function I'm combining this with a chance to critique the part of what I have to date beyond the issue for which I did this, but if it holds like it does in the main package you should be able to figure it out from the sequence in question. AS THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS I'M GOING TO SEND A PM VIA CONVERSATION CENTER SO PLEASE TREAT THIS LIKE ANY OTHER PRELIMINARY CONTENT AND FOLLOW TYPICAL ASSET PROTECTION RULES. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU ARE GOING TO BE UNDER NDA BECAUSE SPOILERS. (BESIDES, I'M NOT DONE WITH THIS ANYWAY.)

EDIT 2: Distribution link has been submitted. As a reminder YOU ARE UNDER NDA due to the consequence of the development stage thereof. Additionally, only the active plugins are listed in the plugin manager here, and the backport pugin removed as stated (it had already been disabled as part of the testing process).

I have released a minor update to the plugin to fix the issue that BreakerZero reported. Please let me know if anything else comes up.

Thanks.

I am not sure if it is too late to post this, but in V2.0.2, there is a bug in the demo with the Mr. Demon banker. When I try to sell my bonds to him (Note: I have bought the bonds he sells after bonds are added), I get this error message.

I can buy bonds from Mr. Demon just fine. I just can't sell them. The other banker does not have this issue only when the time is set to seconds.

And this happens when trying to switch from Seconds to Hours, Minutes, and Days when talking to guy who cowers.

Thanks for the report. I will be working on the Bank Plugin next after I have finished with the Class Changer. Will look into this at that time.

Thank you. I will also check out that Class Changer plugin while I wait for an update. It sounds interesting.

I would also like to mention that the arrow keys and enter/space bar do not work for confirming withdraw/deposit amounts. The most you can do is select an amount. If you hit enter/space, the amount of gold you selected to deposit/withdraw does not get added/deducted from your bank/inventory. It only works if you use the mouse. As someone who primarily uses the keyboard in these kind of RPGs, this is kind of troublesome but I do understand a workaround already exists as MV does have mouse support (I am just not used to using the mouse and it is not the first solution that pops into my head).

Hopefully someone's around to see this. Weird problem - the bank scene opens as it should, I'm allowed to select the amount of gold to deposit, but it doesn't actually deposit. When I hit Enter after selecting amount, it just goes back to the Deposit/Withdraw/Cancel menu with no change in balance or gold on hand. I have bonds disabled and minimum deposit at 0 in the default parameters which the bank is opened with.

Quick update - I noticed it works just fine when I use the menu with my mouse instead of keyboard, so I'm wondering if it just has a weird key setup? I've tried other keys on my keyboard but I get the same result. Also when I activate deposit/withdrawal with the mouse, the window where I select the gold amount has buttons, vs. the keyboard which just has the gold amount that I can adjust with the arrow keys.

Another quick update - this behavior exists in the demo as well, so isn't anything related to my project.

I´ve encountered the issue that i cant deposit any gold.
Maybe im doing something wrong? Maybe i forgot something?
I created a npc added the plugin command.
Bank opens just fine and I see the Deposit Withdraw Cancel options
I go to Deposit (using Controller or Keyboard there are no buttons but input works using a mouse to enter the buttons show but there seems to a alignment issue(maybe its my font but i think its the buttons))
(not encoutering any crashes or error reports regardless of input device, i read somewhere this could be a thing)
I cant deposit or withdraw gold, it just doesnt do anything and returns to the main Bank screen.

Edit: I just now seen Im not the only one with this Issue.

Thanks for the reports/reminding me. I will be working on my plugins in a few weeks so I will take a look at these then.
