New Settings

  • Added a new Setting QuickTravelInsteadOfFly which allows you to choose when flying to make it quick fly instead of the fly animation playing first before being transfered to the chosen fly location. (The Mode is still called "Fly Mode" but you can rename this mode in the Settings of the plugin)

v2.7.0: Region Map Zooming

Attention

This plugin (update) now requires Arcky's Utilities v1.0.4 or higher to function correctly. Once you've installed this, start a new save to avoid malfunction.

New Feature

  • Region Map Zooming: This is enabled by default and the Script will detect if you can zoom out or not. See the new Settings for those I've added.

Improvements

  • Added a flag "EnExtPrev" which allows this map to be an Exception on the new Setting below (EXCLUDE_MAPS_WITH_NO_DATA) when it's set to true. Otherwise this flag has no effect. (This flag is set for a Game Map in the map_metadata.txt PBS file.)
  • Added a flag "DisExtPrev" which allows you to disable the Extended Location Preview for a specific Game Map. (This is basically the manual way of what the EXCLUDE_MAPS_WITH_NO_DATA does.) (And just like with the "EnExtPrev" flag, you set this flag for a Game Map in the map_metadata.txt PBS file.)
  • Renamed the PROGRESS_COUNT_VISITEDLOCATIONS Setting to PROGRESS_COUNT_VISITED_LOCATIONS
  • Changed the position of the Arrow Graphics on the Area Page in the Pokedex. Yes, something may improve here too. :D
  • Changed the SE (Sound Effect) that plays when Activating the Scrolling on the Area Page in the Pokedex. It now won't play when you can't Activate the Scrolling for the Region Map.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed missing Graphic issue when the CHANGE_ENC_BOX_ON_ENCOUNTER_TYPE Setting is set to false.
  • Fixed the Cursor when the CURSOR_MAP_OFFSET Setting is set to false.
  • Fixed the Cursor when the REGION_MAP_BEHIND_UI Setting is set to true.
  • Fixed the Cursor when combining the CURSOR_MAP_OFFSET and REGION_MAP_BEHIND_UI Settings in all possible ways (4 possibilities).
  • Fixed a crash on the Extended Location Preview when there's no Data for a Location.
  • Fixed a crash on the Extended Location Preview when the PROGRESS_COUNTER Setting is set to false. (This now disables the Extended Location Preview.)

New Settings

  • Added a new Setting (EXCLUDE_MAPS_WITH_NO_DATA) which allows you to filter out the Game Map that would show "No Data for this Location" on the Extended Location Preview.
  • Added a new Setting (DISABLE_PROGRESS_COUNTER_PERCENTAGE) which allows you to disable the Percentage shown on the Region Map (next to the Region/District Name).
  • Added a new Setting (DISABLE_EXTENDED_PREVIEW_PERCENTAGE) which allows you to disable the Percentage shown on the Extended Location Preview (next to the Location's name).
  • Added a new Setting (USE_REGION_MAP_ZOOM) which allows you to enable or disable the Region Map Zoom feature.
  • Added a new Setting (ZOOM_SPEED) which allows you to change the Speed of the Zoom in/out animation.
  • Added a new Setting (TOGGLE_ZOOM_BUTTON) which allows you to set which button needs to be pressed to go in "Zoom Mode" which then enables Zooming.
  • Added a new Setting (ZOOM_IN_BUTTON) which allows you to set which button needs to be pressed to Zoom in.
  • Added a new Setting (ZOOM_OUT_BUTTON) which allows you to set which button needs to be pressed to Zoom out.

v2.6.4: Bug Fixes and Improvements

Attention

This plugin (update) now requires Arcky's Utilities v1.0.3 or higher to function correctly. Once you've installed this, start a new save to avoid malfunction.

Improvements

  • You can now have ' in your Location Names. It'll be ignored by the Script so the Location Preview still works as it should. (You can't include ' in constant names anyway in the 001_RegionMap_LocationInfo.rb setup but you can for the Location Names in townmap.txt PBS File.)
  • For the BUTTON_BOX_POSITION Setting, it is now possible to give it a value of nil which will disable the Button Preview completely.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a crash when disabling the Roaming Icons (Roaming Mode) on the Region Map.
  • Fixed a bug when the REGION_MAP_BEHIND_UI Setting is turned on and you use the Mouse to Choose a Location (to change the Cursor's Postion), it would give you the wrong Location Info.
  • Fixed an issue with the Arrows not updating properly when moving the Region Map using the Mouse.

New Settings

  • Added a new Setting (COUNT_ITEMS_TO_MAIN_MAP) that allows you to link multiple maps together to the "main map" so total amount of Items shown on the main map include those of the linked maps as well.
  • Added a new Setting (USE_SPRITES_FOR_UNSEEN_SPECIES) which allows you to have the Unseen Species Icons be shown with a black overlay instead of the ? icon in the Extended Preview.
  • Added a new Setting (UNSEEN_SPECIES_COLOR) which allows you to change the overlay color (related to the setting above) of Unseen Species Icons in the Extended Preview.
  • Added a new Setting (UNCAUGHT_SPECIES_TONE) which allows you to change the tone of Uncaught Species Icons in the Extended Preview.

v2.6.3: Region Decoration

Attention

This plugin (update) now requires Arcky's Utilities v1.0.3 or higher to function correctly. Once you've installed this, start a new save to avoid malfunction.

Bug Fix

  • Fixed a bug when no MapPosition is defined (yet) and you're using the Item Progress Counter feature, it would crash the game. (This is actually a fix from the Arcky's Utilities Plugin) but it's the Region Map Plugin that caused the crash.

New Setting

  • Added a new Setting (REGION_MAP_DECORATION) that allows you to add Decoration Graphics on top of your Region Map. These Graphics will render above the Highlight Images (if used). You can hide each Graphic by using a Switch. (So for example if you want some clouds to appear above an hidden Location, set it to the same switch and the clouds will dissapear while the hidden Location will appear).

v2.6.2: Bug Fixes and Improvements

Attention

This plugin (update) now requires Arcky's Utilities v1.0.2 or higher to function correctly. Once you've installed this, start a new save to avoid malfunction.

Improvement

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed Location Searcher and Quick Fly updating the Cursor incorrectly when the setting REGION_MAP_BEHIND_UI is set to true.
  • Fixed an eventual crash in the Pokedex in case the mapPosition would not have been defined for the Species Location.

New Settings

  • Added a new Setting to Fix the Wild, Trainer and Item Text's position when the Special UI is used.
  • Added 2 new Settings (EXTENDED_TEXT_MAIN_WILD_X and EXTENDED_TEXT_MAIN_WILD_Y) to change the X and Y positions of the Wild Counter Text.

  • Added a new Setting ENCOUNTER_TYPES to list and add your custom Encounter Types and choose how you want them to be displayed in the Extended Location Preview.
  • Added a new Setting CHANGE_EXT_BOX_ON_ENCOUNTER_TYPE to allow you to make the mapExtBoxMain.png Graphic change depending on the Encounter Type currently displayed in the Extended Location Preivew.
  • Added a new Setting CHANGE_ENC_BOX_ON_ENCOUNTER_TYPE to allow you to make the mapEncBox.png Grahic change depending on the Encounter Type currently displayed in the Extended Location Preview.

  • Added 2 new Settings (EXTENDED_TEXT_SUB_BASE and EXTENDED_TEXT_SUB_SHADOW) to change the Color of the Species Info Text (both Species' info pages).
  • Added a new Setting USE_SPECIAL_UI to either use the Special UI or use the default or PokeGear ones (or your own).
  • Added a new Setting PROGRESS_SWITCHES which allow you to link a switch to each District, if used, that will be set to ON when the respective District is at 100%.

Improvement

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a crash with the highlight being nil when changing Region.

v2.5.2: Bug Fixes

Bug Fixes

2024-03-17

v2.5.1: Time Based Region Maps

New Feature

  • It's now possible to have the Region Map Image change depending on the time in game. (Feature suggested by ProChamCham). Possible Times are:
    • Morning
    • Day
    • Afternoon
    • Evening
    • Night
  • When there's no Morning, Afternoon or Evening variant, it'll use the Day variant instead.
  • When there's no Night variant, it'll use the Day variant instead.
  • When there's no Day variant, it'll use the Default one instead.
  • When there's none at all, it'll use the default one (so better keep that one as well).

In the town_map.txt PBS, keep the name there as the default variant (for example "mapRegion0.png"). If you do not wish to use this feature, you can just ignore the console message, the map should load just fine as long as the default one is still available.


Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a crash when confirming to fly to the chosen location using the mouse.
  • Fixed the text "Change Region" on the Fly Map (field move) while you can't change the Region there.
  • Fixed the District Name Feature not being used when the Progress Counter is turned off.

New Setting

2024-03-13

v2.5.0: Mouse Support

New Feature

  • Added Mouse Support which allows you to select a location, move the map and interact with a location (like opening a Location, Quest or Berry Preview or Select that location to fly to).

Improvement

  • Reworked the 000_RegionMap_Settings.rb file completely to make it more orginized (no settings have been renamed).

Bug Fix

  • Fixed a crash with the Trainer Counter script.

2024-02-27

v2.4.1: Bug Fixes and Improvements

Improvements

  • changed the name of the setting MINIMUM_VISITED_COUNT to MINIMUM_MAPS_COUNT
  • added compatibility with the Gen 8-Style Item Find Description plugin.
  • when a Highlight Graphic includes "route" in the name, it's expected to be in the "Routes" folder, any other Graphic are expected to be in the "Others" folder (their name doesn't matter but still need to start with "map").
  • added a counter to keep track on Static Encounters.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a warning message appearing while this shouldn't be the case.
  • Fixed a typo in v20.1 in the Item Tracker script.

New Setting

  • Added a new Setting (PROGRESS_COUNTER). This feature was already in v2.4.0 but now this Setting allows you disable the feature when you're facing a crash. (Please still show the crash to me so i can try to find a fix for it). This is only a temporarly solution to fix the many crash reports I've received in the last week. I disabled this Progress Counter by default.

2024-02-23

v2.4.0: Progress Counter

New Feature

  • You might have already noticed the Percentage showing next to the Region's Name. I've now expanded this by making it count wild pokemon, trainers and items. The only requirement for counting trainers and items is that in the events, there's either "item" or "trainer" mentioned. I'll provide some settings in a future update if you prefer to not have it count trainers, items and wild pokemon. If districts are being used, it'll split up the progress and displays it for each district respectivily.

Improvements

  • On the Berry Mode, when you planted for example only 2 Oran Berries on the same location, it'll say that there were 2 Berries planted but it'll act like it's just 1 berry. Since it are 2 Berries of the same kind.
  • On the Berry Mode, when you have more kinds of Berries planted on a same location it'll tell you, in the choice menu, how many of each kind you've planted and displays this as well on the top before the Berry name. This removes the "Total" line in the Berry preview. I might be adding a new (smaller) Graphic for just 1 line in a future update.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug with the list of berries planted not being displayed correctly
  • Fixed a bug with the Button Box not going back to it's original position when hiding the Berry Preview Box.
  • Fixed an issue with the Disctrict Names Setting Crashing the Game.
  • Fixed an issue when there's no Player Position, it would crash the Game.
  • Fixed a bug with the game crashing after every trainer or wild battle.

New Features


Improvements

  • Improved the Button Text to display depending on the Region Map being opened from the Pokegear, Fly (field move) or the Wall Map.
  • Improved the handling of modes being available depending on logical conditions. For example the Quest map is not available if there are no active Quests.

  • Fixed an issue with the CAN_FLY_FROM_TOWN_MAP setting not being used.

New Settings

  • Added a new Setting to set for each Region to which region you can fly to.
  • Added a new Setting to set a specific location the player needs to be on to be able to fly to another region set in the setting above. (this is like in HGSS that you could only fly to kanto or johto when you were on the Indigo Plateau).
  • Added a new Setting to turn the Berry Icons on or off.
  • Added a new Setting to set a Button for the Berry Preview.
  • Added a new Setting to turn the Roaming Icons on or off.

2024-01-19

v2.1.2: Translation Support

Improvement

  • Added Translation support so all text that would need to be translated can be translated and is used correctly by the plugin as well. (Check the essentials wiki on how to translate your game correctly).

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with NO_UNVISITED_MAP_INFO name replacement when the map isn't included in LINK_POI_TO_MAP. This would mean that the point replacement goes along the location name when the location has been visited.
  • Fixed a crash when there are no Highlight Graphic defined for any locations in the Town_map.txt PBS file. It'll tell you in the Game's Console that there's no Highlight Graphic defined so you can add it. (This was reported by several people so it's an important bug fix.)
  • Fixed an issue with the townmapgen tool so it doesn't add "'s anymore when loading in your points from the PBS.

2024-01-15

v2.1.1: Bug Fixes

Improvements

  • Added an error message in the Pokedex script that tells you when there's no map metadata for a game map that you're opening the Pokedex from. This will still crash the game but at least you'll know why.
  • Added a warning message when there's no Highlight Graphic defined for a location.
  • Added a warning message when there's no Unvisited Graphic defined for a location (for locations that have a fly location).

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with the highlight images positions not being correctly calculated by the script (reported by sorryjzargo).

2024-01-13

v2.1.0: Button Preview Improvements

Improvements

  • Reworked the way the Highlight, Unvisited and Fly Icon Images are drawn on the Region Map Completely.
  • The Button Preview Text now changes after a certain amount of time to each time show one of the available Actions for the current position on the Region Map
  • Added compability with FL's Set the Controls Screen which makes the plugin show the actual key button that needs to be pressed for an Action instead of the in game key you set in the Settings. (This doesn't change anything for the button set-up for each setting in 000_RegionMap_Settings.rb.
  • Added Info log messages that'll show in the console when an Image is not found. I'll expand this by time to help you out and to prevent issues :)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with the Region Map centering wrong so the map gets moved too much over it's actual limit.
  • Fixed the version number required for the Lin's Weather System Plugin in the meta file.
  • Fixed the path used for the Weather Icons.

New Settings

  • Added a new Setting which allows you to link a Point of Interest to a Game Map (the ID). This has only aplies if you use the NO_UNVISITED_MAP_INFO setting. This way the Point of Interest Text isn't revealed when the linked map hasn't been visited yet.

New Setting

  • Suggested by @REALMUGEN: you can now have the name of a Location be replaced with "???" or whatever text you want as long as the Game Map hasn't been visited yet.
    Attention

    Important: It is very important that the Game Map and the Point name is named exactly the same or it'll not work, it won't crash your game but instead it'll show the point's name.

    You can do the same with Point of Interests on some Locations on the Region Map, you can either make these empty by doing "" or name them something else.

Bug Fix

  • Fixed an issue with the Quest Name displaying the hidden locations on the Region Map.

2023-10-18

v1.1.2: Bug Fixes

Recently Reported Issue

  • The game might crash if you open the Region Map from a Game Map that has not a MapPosition defined in the map_metadata PBS file. To fix this, just make sure you have a position defined on the region map. Even if I find a work around for this issue, every single Game Map should have a position defined on the Region Map.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with the script not using the correct (or expected) unvisited map image. This issue only appears when a location is set on the top left point of a city/town. As you might set a different highlight image for the location.
  • Fixed the Quest Preview not showing and disappearing properly (I fixed this but removed the animation for now)

New Setting

To fix the above mentioned issue, I've added a new setting in 001_RegionMap_Settings.rb. The Points set in the PBS for a location like this would be:

As you can see on the above shown points, the first poing (top left one) has "Size1x1Small" set as highlight location. As you might know, this name is as well used to find the Unvisited Map Graphic for this location. The script only looks at the top left position. So to fix this, you can either name your unvisited Map Graphic "mapSize1x1Small" but then you can't use this name if you have a location in a city with a different size. The actual fix is a new Setting:

You can add the fly point (MapID, MapX, MapY) and the name of the Unvisited Map Graphic you want the script to use for this point. (don't include "map" in this setting but don' forget to include it in the Graphic name itself).

2023-10-14

v1.1.1: Bug Fixes and Improvements

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue when the map isn't properly centered based on the player's location (when opening the region map).
  • fixed an issue when the map in the pokedex isn't properly shown when the player's position is higher then 29 (x position) and 19 (y position). Thanks to @drqiu for the fix.
  • fixed a type in the "highlight" folder, it's now named correctly (if you noticed this, just rename the folder, thank you)

Improvements

  • when previewing a quest, if the map can be moved upward, the arrow pointing up will now be hidden behind the quest preview graphic as long as the quest preview is shown.
  • When you are inside a building or any other place you can't fly, the "ACTION: Fly" text on the top right will not be shown as you can't activate the fly mode anyways (this is when you allow to use fly on the pokegear/town map othe rthan the fly field move)x
  • When you are using a map that is the standard map size (480x320), pressing USE won't do anything in the pokedex area page as you can't scroll the map anyway.

Bug Fixes

  • fixed an issue with the Unvisited Map Marking appearing above the Fly Icons for locations that you can't fly to yet (unvisited).
  • Fixed another issue with the Unvisited Map marking, if you put 2 points on the same location in random order (based on x and y values), it'll now take the lowest point so the Unvisited Map Graphic is placed correctly.

2023-10-08-a

v1.0.1: Bug Fixes
