Lighting and Time Editor

Lighting and Time Editor v1.00 Level No Matter Due I haven't had time, Feelzor has offered to continue the plugin adding new features and fixing bugs. Download here Introduction I started making this plugin with the intention of giving a more professional look to my game, and the result was a lighting editor with night and day cycle, and some time control functions. Then I decided that it was good enough to share it Installation Put the plugins in this order: LNM_GameEditorCore.js LNM_GameTime.js LNM_LightingTool.js Insert the folders “editor” and “lights” in the "img" directory. That’s it. Lighting Tool (LNM_LightingTool.js) How to use You can add lights in two ways: From the in-game editor. From events. Adding lights in-game Press TAB and then press over the lamp icon. Then select the type of light you want to add. You can drag and edit your properties at any time. Adding custom lights from events Simply create an event and then in the field “Note” add the following line: Light(filename, scale, hue, alpha).addPulse(pulseMin, pulseMax, pulseSpeed).addFlick(flickIntensity, flickSpeed) Filename: (string) Sprite used for the light, located in /img/lights/ Scale: (float) Scales the sprite (1.0 = 100%, 0.5 = 50%, etc) Hue: (integer) Tint scale for colors from 0 to 359. For more information visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:HueScale.svg Alpha: (float) Transparency of the light, from 0.1 to 1.0 pulseMin: (float) Minimum scaling for pulse animation pulseMax: (float) Maximum scaling for pulse animation pulseSpeed: (integer) Speed for pulse animation flickIntensity: (integer) Intensity for flick animation flickSpeed: (integer) Speed for flick animation Examples: Ambient Light(default, 5.0, 28, 1.0) Torch Light(default, 15, 1.0, 1.0).addPulse(0.98, 1.02, 7).addFlick(1, 3) Bonfire Light(default, 28, 1.3, 1.0).addPulse(1.1, 1.3, 15).addFlick(1, 3) Adding default lights from events You can also create default lights by simply typing Torch, Bonfire or Ambient in the field “Note”. Player torch You can activate or deactivate the player’s torch by simply activating or deactivating the corresponding switch. By default it is #0001, but you can change it from the Plugin Manager. Game Time (LNM_GameTime.js) Plugin commands Time PAUSE Stops time. This is useful for cutscenes. Time PLAY Reactivates time. Time SET hour minutes Sets game’s time to a specific time. Example: Time SET 15 0 Sets game’s time to three in the afternoon. Time ADD hours minutes Advances time. Example: Time ADD 2 15 Advances time by two hours and fifteen minutes. Notetags These must be set in the field Note in Map Properties. Ignores time and sets the screen tone specified in RGB color (Red, Green, Blue). This is useful for darker dungeons or zones in which lighting is not time dependant. Example: Ignores time and sets the screen tone to black. Ignores time and sets the screen tone to a Custom Tint from the Plugin Manager. Example: Sets the screen tone of Custom Tint 8. Terms of use Free to use for both commercial and non-commercial games.

P/s: The creator has seemed to abandon it.

+ Added the possibility to make the player torch follow the player's direction.
+ Added the possibility to disable the time system.
* Corrected a bug where the custom tint set to the map would reset after closing a menu.

Not sure if I overlooked how to achieve this, but as of right now it seems like when I transfer to a map with <Tint: 1> command in its notes, then backtrack to the previous map, it carries over the <Tint: 1>. Is there a way to revert to the current times tint?

Actually, my tint setting are updated by common event regarding the map you are in. I just use notetag for inside map to deactivate the plugin

Hi, a little UP for the previous question.
When I transfer in a Dungeon Note : <Tint: 1> (A dark tint) everything is fine.
But if I transfer back to the previous map (Where there is nothing in the Note) I keep the <Tint: 1> even if I transfer into Homes, Shops etc..
Is there a command to get back to the Actual Time's Tint ?

I have the Core, and GameTime Plugins installed; the in-game Time System is working fine, but how do I get the TINTS to start running?
