Tiny Overworld Sprites
Version: 1.0.0

Introduction

This script gives you little bitty characters when on any map marked as an overworld map, similar to the feature in Chrono Trigger with no extra graphics required. Should be compatible with all location window scripts (menus and HUDs) and with any menu. Even though this script already exists, I got a surprising number of requests for this after posting the VX version, so here it is.

Tiny Overworld Sprites XP

Instructions

For any world you want to mark as an overworld map, simply add the word *WORLD* to the map's name. To change the zoom to make the overworld sprite bigger or smaller, change this line:

ZOOM = 0.3

This is a percentage, so 0.3 is 30%. If you want 50%, change this to 0.5.

FAQ

To make this compatible with my caterpillar script, find these lines:

Code:

if @return_to_player
   if self.x == $game_player.x and self.y == $game_player.y
  @return_to_player = false
  @move_route_forcing = false
   else
  move_toward_player
   end
    end

Below that, add this:

Code:

    if $game_map.isworldmap
   self.zoom_x = ZOOM
   self.zoom_y = ZOOM
    else
   self.zoom_x = 1.0
   self.zoom_y = 1.0
    end

By DerVVulfman: Also add the following lines to (1) prevent a no-method-error and (2) have it detect her Party actors *tested*
Add the following two lines to the Game_TrainActor class, so it recognizes the zoom factors:

Code:

attr_accessor :zoom_x
  attr_accessor :zoom_y

And then find this line in this script:

Code:

    if @character.is_a?(Game_Player) and $game_map.isworldmap

and replace it with:

Code:

if (@character.is_a?(Game_Player) or @character.is_a?(Game_TrainActor)) and $game_map.isworldmap

To make this compatible with Fukuyama's caterpillar script, find this line in this script:

Code:

    if @character.is_a?(Game_Player) and $game_map.isworldmap

And change it to:

Code:

    if (@character.is_a?(Game_Player) or @character.is_a?(Game_Party_Actor) and $game_map.isworldmap

By DerVVulfman: Use the below code for Fukuyama's Train Actor script instead and have Train Actor placed above Tiny Overworld. *tested*

Code:

if (@character.is_a?(Game_Player) or @character.is_a?(Train_Actor::Game_Party_Actor)) and $game_map.isworldmap
