# ** The Charlie Mini-Map / Dynamic Maps Patch

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    by DerVVulfman

#    version 1.2

#    03-29-2022 (mm/dd/yyyy)

#    RGSS / RPGMaker XP

#    Requires:  Charlie's Mini-Map Extended

#               Dynamic Maps Expanded

#==============================================================================

#

#  INTRODUCTION:

#  =============

#                                

#  This is a crucial patch required  for anyone using  the redesigned version

#  of the  "Passable Mini-Map" by Charlie Fleed,  and the upgraded version of

#  Near Fantastica's "Dynamic Maps" script,  both of which  were released  by

#  DerVVulfman.   Without this patch  and the instructions that are contained

#  within, the proper display of the mini-maps will falter.

#

#==============================================================================

#

#  INSTALLATION:

#

#  Insofar as script placement, the "Charlie's Mini-Map Extended" system must

#  be placed above the "Dynamic Maps Expanded" script within the Script Data-

#  base.  And this patch is placed below both.   In essence, the list of your

#  scripts should look like so:

#

#  * Charlie's Mini-Map Extended - Instructions and Configuration

#  * Charlie's Mini-Map Extended - Main Engine

#  * Dynamic Maps Expanded

#  * The Charlie Mini-Map / Dynamic Maps Patch

#

#  However,  this alone does not fix the issue.   Work must be performed upon

#  both the Mini-Map and Dynamic Map scripts themselves, The conflict between

#  the two scripts appears within the  'setup'  method of the Game_Map class.

#  For this patch to work, you will need to edit/remove the setup method from

#  both of these; this by either cutting the method out or commenting it out.

#  But not only that, but the alias command to which each is attached.

#

#  Within "Charlie's Mini-Map Extended",  go to line 320  within the system's

#  engine code. Here you will see both the alias command and the setup method

#  which need to be removed.  The alias statement that likewise needs removal

#  is "alias game_map_passmap_cf_setup setup"

#

#  And within the "Dynamic Maps Expanded" script, head towards line 130 which

#  brings you to both the alias and setup code which needs to be removed. And

#  the alias statement of "alias dm_orig_setup setup" does have to go.

#

#  Once these alterations are made and this patch appears below both systems,

#  then you should no longer have any issues with the two.

#

#

#==============================================================================

#

#  COMPATABILITY:

#

#  This patch's primary focus  is to work  with "Charlie's Mini-Map Extended"

#  and "Dynamic Maps Expanded",  both being rewrites of the originals by Near

#  Fantastica and Charlie Fleed.

#

#  Use of this patch is possible  with earlier versions of the two,  but does

#  require alteration  of the patch's code itself  as the newer versions adds

#  additional values which enhances features or fixes system errors. However,

#  the request to remove the setup methods  within the earlier versions would

#  still apply.

#

#==============================================================================

#

#  Terms of Use:

#

#  Free for use, even in commercial projects. Due credit is required,  not

#  only for me but for the authors and supporters of the two systems which

#  this patch is designed.
