Hello! Great plug-in, it's just what I was looking for! I'm just wondering if there is a way to refresh variables? I couldn't figure out a way to do it without opening and closing the menu. If not, it's something I'd like to see in the future for sure!
Also is the background update behind text still planned? Thanks!
Hi, yes everything listed is still planned. The background update will be for a custom image. If you want to draw a window background behind the text, you can already do so using the text code <CGMZFULLWINDOW>
I am not quite sure what you mean by refresh variables. I am thinking you mean you want to use the text code \v[x] in an event name and it is not updating in the event name when the variable value changes?
If so, it is a little bit complicated (I can make it easier in a future update) but you should be able to use this code in a script call event command after the variable changes:
for(const sprite of SceneManager._scene._spriteset._CGMZ_nameSpriteContainer.children) {
sprite._name = "";
sprite.updateName();
}
Wow yes, that's exactly what I needed! Thank you so much for the quick fix and for going above and beyond, That code works perfectly for what I needed to do!
Also great to hear about the update still on the way! Thank you again! :)
No problem I am glad it is working exactly as you want 😁I do have over 100+ plugins so even though I update one per day it can take a while for any single plugin to get an update.
If you have any other suggestions besides what is already listed for planned updates I do also add all user suggestions to my to-do list.
Sorry but I do not take commissions as it would take time away from [CGMZ]. You can suggest new plugins as well, any suggested new plugin could get created one day if patrons vote for it or I decide to make it outside of a poll.
I'm sorry to bother you again. I would like to ask how this plugin has to be set up, is it with comments? I would like to ask how to edit it? Sorry to bother you.
Hi, I am not sure. This plugin takes the default MZ code event screen X and Y and places the text there, and it also looks at event x/y and player x/y coordinates for opacity. If the other plugin changes those then it might not work.

Thank you!!! And no problem, you are doing great updating so many plugins! Just curious, do you ever accept plugin commissions as well?

Hi, yes you will put a comment on your event, such as this:
You can also make it float up/down by adding to the comment:
Sorry, I realized there's not much documentation so I have updated the plugin to include this.
No no! I'm the one who's a little out of touch! You're super awesome! Thank you!
Does it work in MZ3D?
Hi, I am not sure. This plugin takes the default MZ code event screen X and Y and places the text there, and it also looks at event x/y and player x/y coordinates for opacity. If the other plugin changes those then it might not work.
