Ixfuru's Toolbox

IXFURUS TOOLBOX 1.0

INTRODUCTION

This script displays a small window during Scene_Map which enables a quick peek at the party's most-used tools or items.

HOW TO USE

Copy the script below into your script editor, below materials and above main. You'll need to configure what items you want to show up in the window, by altering, adding or deleting values in the TOOLS array. Then, you'll want to locate the TOOLSWITCH and change the value to link it to an in game switch. This script will then be toggled by the TOOLBOX_INPUT constant, which you can also configure to your needs. Also, there are plenty of other customizations, but mainly they are cosmetic.

SCREENSHOTS

Spoiler

Above is the script in action. Note that items which are not possessed by the party are shown in their NO_TOOLS_COLOR!
