Map Safety Level

Map Safety Level

XP + VX + ACE + MV

by Kyonides Arkanthes

Introduction

I have come up with a very simple scriptlet that will allow the game developers to show a simple map name window plus a brand new label telling the player how safe that map actually is. This window will be shown on the menu screen only.

XP Script

Code:

# * Map Safety Level XP * #
#   Scripter : Kyonides Arkanthes
#   2022-12-30

# This scriptlet lets you set some texts as Safety Level Labels, and then you
# can call a method to set a new level at any given time.

# Valid Levels: 0 up to your safety maximum level.

# * Get or Set Current Map's Safety Level * #
# $game_map.safety_level
# $game_map.safety_level = NewLevel

# * Preset a given Map's Safety Level * #
# SAFETY_LEVELS = { MapIDa => Level, MapIDb => Level, etc. }

# * Define a given Map's Safety Level Color * #
# - Alpha is optional. Valid Values: 0 through 255
# SAFETY_LEVELS[0] = [Red, Green, Blue, Alpha]
