Immense Events - DerVVulfman - 12-27-2015
Immense Events
Version: 1.0
Introduction
The RPGMaker series recognizes that events occupy a single tile space on the map. However, this includes events that have been assigned graphics that exceed the tile borders. This system allows you to set the number of tiles an event can occupy.
This system also recognizes that oversized events may become blocked if they are too wide to fit through impassable areas. And it recognizes the area-size of oversized events which may be triggered, even counters.
Demo
(>CLICK<)
Instructions
Plenty... inside the script itself.
Note
Demo includes the Events Always Under script as well.
Compatibility
Designed for RPGMaker XP. Rewrites the passable method in Game_Character, the start method in Game_Event (minor change that it is), and event trigger methods in both Game_Event and Game_Player.
Terms and Conditions
Free for use, even in commercial games.
RE: Immense Events - Mel - 01-06-2016
It's crazy, this script rescued my game right now.
My new flight-maps have a 200x200 size and all map borders have to be filled with transfer player events to other flight maps with the same size. So just all these transfer events would make an amount of 800 events just for that. I would've only 199 events left for others things like enemies, NPCs, objects and so on and that would never be enough.
Thank you for this! :)

I just noticed that this script seems to break my Anti Lag Script. :/
I really don't know why.
This is the Anti Lag Script:
Code: #======================================
# Anti Event Lag Script
#======================================
# By: Near Fantastica
# Date: 12.06.05
# Version: 4
#======================================
# Heretic Revision August 21st, 2012
# ----- HERETIC NOTES -----
# THIS SCRIPT HAS BEEN MODIFIED!
# The original version of the script did increase framerates at the cost
# of flat out making some things not work at all.
# This revision of the original script should fix those issues.
# #1 Fixed an issue where Events that used Multiple Event Pages
# (which require conditions) were never refreshed, as the call to
# change those events was ommitted entirely, apparently by accident.
# #2 Fixed Events moving Off Screen to not update. Any time Set Move Route
# is called, the moved Event will now Update correctly. Useful for Cutscenes
# where an NPC walks to On Screen from Off Screen.
# #3 If you use an "Autonomous Movement", and want an Event or NPC to be
# updated regardless if they are on the screen or not, you'll need to
# add \al_update to that Event's Name. The Naming Parameter was used
# to allow functionality to be maintained across any number of Event Pages.
# #4 This script only updates Events or NPC's around that are close enough
# to the Player that they require being updated. For Large Sprites, this
# can cause some issues. I adjusted the distance so that Large Sprites
# won't cause glitches by partially staying on the screen when they aren't
# supposed to be there.
# --- Notes for Compatability ---
# This script makes changes to update in both Spriteset_Map and Game_Map classes
# There isnt a whole heck of a lot of script to run the optimizations, so if
# you have ANY other script that makes changes to update in either of those
# classes, place those scripts BELOW this one.
#
# Other Scripts that FULLY REDEFINE def update will break this script.
#
# If another script does fully redefine def update, you can probably try
# combine the two scripts. I've commented out the spots of code that need
# to be there for anti-lag to work.
# NAMING OPTIONS
# - \al_update
# For Example: "EV031\al_update" can move around anywhere on the Map and will
# be updated regardless of where it is at on the Map!
# (\al_ is just an abbreviation for "Anti Lag", which hopefully is unique!)
# Events with \al_update in their name will ALWAYS be Updated
# I also changed "Set Move Route" to automatically add a @lag_include Flag
# to the Event so that the Event will ALWAYS be able to move. This will
# most likely happen for Cutscenes where an Event needs to be able to
# move around regardless of its Range from Player on the Map. Once you
# leave a Map and return, this will reset and the Event or NPC will only
# update if it is On Screen, or at least close to the Screen

RE: Immense Events - Ahzoh - 02-18-2016
Thanks, I will surely add this to my game's script list.
RE: Immense Events - DerVVulfman - 02-19-2016
Melana? Perhaps switch the position of the scripts. I am thinking you placed this version of Near's antilag underneath this script. If that is the case, paste the antilag script above Immense Events.
They only share the one Game_Event class, though they do not appear to be sharing the same methods. Mine actively changes the 'start', 'check_event_trigger_touch' and 'check_event_trigger_auto' methods while this altered version of Near's attaches code to the 'initialize' method.
RE: Immense Events - Mel - 02-19-2016
Hmm I've placed Immense Events under all others scripts and maps with many events are laggy.
If I remove Immense Events the lags are gone.
RE: Immense Events - Trailman - 01-24-2017
Unfortunately this causes some trouble with my custom battle system. I would love to use it though and it works perfectly otherwise as I can tell
RE: Immense Events - JayRay - 01-25-2017
Another thing, is this set up so that events that are say 10 tiles by 10 tiles, and have the original square off the visible screenport, stay? as in, are the CORNERS of said massive event still visible?
RE: Immense Events - DerVVulfman - 01-25-2017
First, to Trailman. This modifies classes that are involved in the Field map: Game_Character, Game_Event, Game_Player and Sprite_Character. So, why would this interfere with your battlesystem... is it a field map ABS system such as my Lycan ABS?
Second, I think I gathered what you suggested JayRay. You're concerned that an event outside of the viewport would still have an impact within the visible screen. Such would be like a 5x6 blocky area that you want visible, and the central event that draws it no longer in the typical 20x15 tile area. Yep, the drawn event is still present. And not only that, but it can still be triggered.

See, when you have say a center of map that's above 8 from the event's base, an Anti-Lag Script can cause it to appear to be there AND not there....
With that being said, AWESOME SCRIPT DerVVulfman...
Quick Question - Does this work with Mousie? Like if Mouse Move is off and you roll your mouse over an IMMENSE SCRIPT, will it allow the whole of the event to be clickboxed?
(Really good for Mouse based ABS targeting, and GUI elements, like if you want to click on a location on say... theoretically, a world map, and that location event is say.. 5 tiles by 5 tiles?)
