[simple Stupid Gaming] Difficulty Setting version 1.0.3 by Heartbreak61 INTRODUCTIONThis plugin allows you to set difficulties that affects enemies stats, exp, gold, and shop price. You can choose wether to display difficulty setting on Game Option screen or not (default: on). In case you don't want to, you can switch difficulty levels using Event Plugin Command. Before using this plugin, please make sure that you have file Difficulties.json placed inside "data" folder of your current project. Edit your Difficulties.json to your liking. You may add or remove difficulty levels as long as you follow the pattern. FEATURES - Multiple difficulty level to your liking - Turn switches to on when changing difficulty level - Set difficulty on Option Screen SCREENSHOT N/A HOW TO USEPut Difficulties.json inside your data folder, and put SSG_DifficultySetting.js inside your js/plugin folder. Open Diffifficulties.json using any text editor and you will find something like this [ // <- don't touch this { "name": "Very Easy", "mhp": 60, "mmp": 60, "atk": 50, "def": 50, "mat": 50, "mdf": 50, "agi": 50, "luk": 50, "exp": 50, "gold":50, "buy": 200, "sell": 200, "switches":[1,6] },......] // <- don't touch this Here's the explanation ~~ name ~~ Set your difficulty level name that will be displayed on the Option Screen. Values must be a string (wrapped by quotes or double quotes sign). The tables is an Array. It means that the first element's ID is 0. You should make your difficulty level sorted from easiest to hardest. As it will make sense for the player when they set difficulty on the option screen ~~ mhp, mmp, atk, def, atk, mat, mdf, agi, luk ~~ Set enemy's stats. Values represent percentage (100 is 100%) ~~ exp, gold ~~ Set enemy's exp and gold. Values represent percentage ~~ buy, sell ~~ Affect price when buying or selling items on the shop. Values represent percentage ~~ switches ~~ Will specified set of switches to ON when a difficulty level applied. Switches should be declared in array (i.e. [1,2,3]). If you don't want to use this feature, just set it to [0]. Switches from other difficulty level will be turned OFF but you can have same switches declared on different difficulty level (See how I set switch 6 on difficulty 0 and 2 on the example table below). Please note that switches CAN'T be turned off using normal way. Author's Note About Switches: In case you don't know, you can use switches for enemy skill condition. So you can set an enemy to cast different skills on different difficulty level. Specific Enemy Setting To override the table for certain enemies, you can write this line on enemy notebox Code: example: It will set enemy's DEF on difficulty 4 to 250%. Or you can write these lines for multiple assignment Code: difficultyLevel, param, valuedifficultyLevel, param, value... example: Code: 0, mhp, 70 3, atk, 1503, def, 1254, atk, 2004, mhp, 400 valid arguments for enemy stats is: Code: mhp, mmp, atk, def, mat, mdf, agi, luk, exp, gold Note: default maximum stats for enemy will still be applied. For example, enemy's ATK limit is 999. Plugin Command In case you don't want to use Option Screen or you want to set difficulties via events, you can use plugin command. Code: setDifficulty Number example: setDifficulty 4 Plugin Parameters Code: Show Difficulty OptionDescription = Show Difficulty on Option WindowDefault = true Code: Default DifficultyDescription = Your default starting difficulty level. This value will be replaced by game option save data.Default = 0 DEMO N/A OLDER DEMOS: N/A SCRIPT SSG_DifficultySetting.js Difficulties.json for those who have issues "can't read property length of null", please try this Hotfix Let me know if this work because I can't reproduce your error to see wether this fix work or not.

I cannot change the difficulty setting in the option menu while I am playing in a mobile device. I tapped the screen everywhere but nothing changed.
