My goal:
To create a status menu that fits the "16:9 ratio" thing(640x360 compared to the default 544x416).
To allow the player to not just view the stats, but also view a brief snippet(help window) of what they do (ie: Attack- raises physical damage dealt).
My Progress:
I am pretty nub with scripting. I meant to pick it up with RMXP, but then VX came out. Then work happened. Then VX Ace came out. More work happened, and MV is about to come out... but I already got started during the VX Ace era, so here we are. I put together modules that have some configurations in them (like vocab for the s/x params), modified a few methods that are supposed to enable higher-than-cap base parameters(they seem to work), and actually perform the minor adjustment for changing screen resolution from default to the ratio I mentioned before.
I have a basic understanding of how it all works for the most part, and I feel like the issue I am stumbling most with is simply understanding the window to scene interactions, in addition to the details about things like command windows and how all that works. I've read over the default scripts again and again, and I just feel like I'm missing something. So I posted what I've got at the bottom. Currently, the script draws all the parameters, and I tried to do things with the Scene_Status and making it do the selectable thing... but its definitely not working.
I was hoping I could get a peer review or something from one of the experts(read: more knowledgeable than I am) and maybe a shove in the right direction with wisdom about how the things I'm tripping over work.
Sorry for the mouthful, just trying to be as clear as possible.
1.
What RPG Maker you are using? -RMVXace
2.
What exactly is the problem you are encountering? Which scripts are you using? -It is a naked project, the only thing I'm using is my own script (listed below).
3.
In which environment does the problem occur? -The issues start occurring when I decide to start going into the menu and pressing buttons.
-As written and pasted on Pastebin, it is setup so that if you choose any of the selections on the status menu, you get:
"Script 'Window_Base' line 72: RGSSError occured. disposed window." Which I'm sure is because I failed at doing the right thing with window creation.
For clarity, I've done my best to comment what I believe its supposed to do or at least what my intent was for the code listed below:
And also, so I don't have a mile long post, I shoved it onto pastebin:
Click here for the module for the Revamp.Click here for the Revamp on Pastebin.Single instruction: Module goes in its own script section above the Revamp itself.
And thanks again for anyone who lends help, I appreciate it.
