Timed User Input, Scripts, and Windows - Full Version
Authors: Diagostimo, Heretic
Version: 1.0
Type: Simulated User Input
Key Term: Misc System



Introduction

This is the Full Version of the Timed User Input Script.

This Script will to allow you to Simulate User Input in ANY Scene at ANY time by entering a series of simple script commands.  It also allows you to run Scripts in ANY Scene, even Multi Line Scripts, as well as display Message Windows without ANY modifications to the Scene itself!  The expanded functionality also allows you to wait for specific commands from the Player, and wait for any other specific conditions.



Features


  • Simulate User Input at specific times

  • Display Timed Messages in ANY Scene

  • Timed Message Windows can use either a Specific Windowskin, or your current Game Windowskin

  • Timed Message Windows can also be "Permanent" and do not close across changes in Scenes

  • Run Timed Scripts, even Multi Line Scripts

  • I still like shiny things

  • Wait for Specific Commands from a Player

  • Wait for ANY other Specific Conditions that you can dream up!

  • Should be compatible with very complex Message, Menu, and Battle Systems

Instructions

See Script and Demo for examples.


Compatibility

This version may be slightly less compatible with other Scripts, but offers expanded functionality.  It should still be highly compatible, even with the most complex scripts available.  If there are any compatability issues, please let me know and I'll do my best to correct them.


Credits and Thanks


  • Diagostimo for providing the original code that was expanded on.

  • I'd like to thank the Academy...




Author's Notes

My goal with this script is to reach as close to a 100% compatability rating as I can get.

NOTE:  There are TWO VERSIONS of this Script.  This is the FULL VERSION.  Both versions are very similar, but for sake of compatability, a LITE VERSION was born.  Some of the features in the Full Version may not be needed at all, but they may also lower the compatability.

The Full Version will NOT be compatible with anything other than RMXP.

Just wanted to say from the brief time I spent looking at the demo, this looks like an excellent script. Nice job!

Thanks!

I did some stuff earlier that I am extremely happy with, and glad that I took the time to do things correctly.  Thus, it is time to release this as an Official Release.

I had to make two versions due to compatability with RMVX and Ace.  The Full Version doesnt stand a chance of being compatible with VX or Ace unless I can afford to pay for a copy of it, and I just dont have money right now to do that.  The Lite Version, on the other hand, I believe will be compatible, but am unable to check.

Enjoy!

Nice script by the way. Follow that link if you ever want to get VX and Ace, then you can this compatible with all engines.
