[VXACE] Yanfly's Gab Window - How to make it consecutive?

CarlosDavilla · 2018-08-15T13:51:49+0900

I just hope I'm posting this in the right place. Here's my question. Can I make consecutive gab windows with Yanfly's Gab Window script? If I can, I'm kinda having some trouble in achieving it. The thing I want to make is to make a gab window saying stuff that, after some seconds, be substitute with another gab window, saying another stuff. Ex: (gab)Mission Completed: Buy cigarettes. After some 2 or 3 seconds, this gab window will vanish and another one will appear, saying: (gab)Mission Added: Buy Milk. Can it be done? Putting one gab script after the other is not working at all (Maybe I'm just being dumb).

Code:

gab("Mission Completed: Buy cigarettes.")
$game_map.interpreter.wait(60)
gab("Mission Added: Buy Milk.")

or to make the first window vanish...

Code:

gab("Mission Completed: Buy cigarettes.")
$game_map.interpreter.wait(60)
clear_gab
$game_map.interpreter.wait(60)
gab("Mission Added: Buy Milk.")

This should work, I just tested it with a 60 frame wait.

Edit: Changed it. You can use that all in one script call.

Well, that actually resolved the problem of the consecutive gab windows, and I really thank you for that, but my character really has to be frozen in place while waiting for the first gab window to vanish?

If it's a parallel process running the event, then no.

Oh well, I guess I'll just have to make tons of switches to activate them instead of having it put in action button events. That's a lot more work, but I guess it can't be helped.

Thanks for your time. Have a good night (Or day. I dunno where you live anyway).
