  1. Choice Help Window


    By DreamX


    Introduction/Features


    With comments, you can specify the help, message text and face when you select a choice (before confirming).


    How To Use


    Right click the script link and save as a .js file.


     Insert comments right after the "when" part in a show choices event command.
     
     Insert a comment beginning with ChoiceHelp to set the help text for the
     choice.
     Example: ChoiceHelp Choosing this choice will make you lose 200 gold.
     
     Insert a comment beginning with ChoiceMessage to set the message text for
     the choice. You must have an active message window at the time of the choice
     to use this. An empty message window will suffice.
     Example: ChoiceMessage I'll never succumb to darkness!
     
     Insert a comment beginning with ChoiceFace to set the face for the choice.
     It should be in this format: FaceFileName FaceIndex
     Example: ChoiceFace Actor1 2
     OR you can just specify the index, and it'll just use the face file name
     from the active message window.
     You must have an active message window with a face at the time of the choice
     to use this. An empty message window will suffice, as long as it has a face.

    Known Issues/Future Updates


    No bugs known yet.


    Compatibility


    Compatible (as far as my testing goes) with Yanfly's Message Core and Yanfly's Extended Message Pack for it, including with the expanded amount of choices. Remember to use <br> to perform a line break. Set under Yanfly plugins in general (and probably any other plugin that modifies choices/messages).

  4. Perfect <3 Thanks !
  5. If you put choices inside of choices, the plugin will grab comments from the wrong show choice.

  6. Please delete this I am blind.
  7. Yea.. i spent 2 hours trying to figure out what is wrong with this plug in ! and yea there is a bug while nesting (choice into choice) ! (you cant avoid the bug.. i tried to call commone events and keep the nesting from far places.. but nothing!
    But nice try! thanx for sharing your plug in! (i hope you will fix it)!
  8. This is pretty cool.
  9. Is there an option to hide the help window in specific situations?
    Mabye a plugin command to activate or deactivate the feature?

    This would be nice and much more flexible

    Thanks for this plugin :)
  10. I can't get the line break to work on message window @.@

    edit: I figured it out. Have to use <WordWrap> at the beginning.
  11. Is there any way to move the Help Text window to the bottom of the screen? If there is a dialog box placed at the top, the Help Text window will cover it.
  12. I can't seem to have the messages more than one line long, even with <br> placed where I need it to be. I'm not using YanFly's message system, so no wordwrap.

  13. Not sure if this will help anything, LufiaGuy200, or if it's something you've tried already, but maybe you should have spaces on either side of <br>? The program may be reading "world.<br>Fists," as one word.

    I hadn't tried that before (honestly didn't think to), but I just attempted that and it didn't do anything.
  15. Mmmm... Sorry. I wasn't sure it would (I'm no programmer), but I thought it couldn't hurt to try..
  16. No worries, I hadn't even thought to try that. ^^;

    Jesus, me too! That's a pity.

    @DreamX
    any news on willing to fix this bug? I really needed this plugin to behave correctly. Thanks anyway!
