[RESOLVED]Framerate ... ??

[Calintz]

How many frames of gameplay = 1sec??

[winkio]

Smooth Mode
Games usually runs at 20 frames per second, but if your system meets or exceeds the recommended configuration, you can enjoy a 40 fps framerate instead by checking the smooth mode box under game options.

Hooray RMXP manual!

[Calintz]

... ouch ...
LMAO, thank you very much Winkio.

It was a basic question, but I'll level you up for a quick response.

40 frames in scripts = 1 second
20 frames in events = 1 second

[Calintz]

Ah, so it is 20. Good.
I used this rate when creating CWAES.

[Blizzard]

I figured. Also, those numbers are independent from what winkio mentioned.

[Calintz]

Then everything is fine.
I was concerned whether or not the gameplay framerate was or wasn't connected to the coding framerate.

Thanks guys.

[Blizzard]

No, no, the script framerate is always 40. The settings winkio mentioned are only display settings and have nothing to do with the time passing in the game.

[winkio]

right I should have given the helpful answer as well.  I only got 5 hours of sleep, and didn't connect it to him wanting to use it in scripting/eventing.  I thought he was just curious about the framerate that RMXP runs on XD.

[Calintz]

Yeah, but I did say gameplay.
I can understand how you may have mistaken me.

Oh, I always thought it was 40 FPS for smooth mode, 20 FPS for non smooth. Thanks for giving the distinction blizz, it'll help me get the timing on my events right
