A fourth column in MOG Scene Item Laura V1.2

[Noctis]

Well, it's still a bit sloppy by my standard, but here's a patch for the revised version of Scene Item Laura V1.2 - Revised version.

Sloppy by my standard as I left his inner mechanics untouched.  I should have broken the menus into smaller modules so other scripters could more easily write new code and  patches.

Code:

# Extra ITEM for MOG_Scene_Item Revised
#     an edit of MOG_Scene_Item V1.3 by Moghunter  
#                http://www.atelier-rgss.com
#==============================================================================
#  Patch by DerVVulfman
#  
#  NOTE:  Requires the end user to rework their "Item_com" graphics to allow
#         for a 4th category, the 'Special' item type.  The format is:
#     Item_com01.png ... To have 4 items, the 1st window "Item" highlighted
#     Item_com02.png ... To have 4 items, the 2nd window "Weapon" highlighted
#     Item_com03.png ... To have 4 items, the 3rd window "Armor" highlighted
#     Item_com04.png ... To have 4 items, the 4th window "Special" highlighted
#
#   Special Items are items not visible in the normal Item bag, but are loca-
#   ted in the 4th category in the item window.  ONLY within the 4th window
#   will these items be found.
#
#   To define special items, place the IDs of these items within the
#   SpecialSelect array inside the MOG module.
#  
#   Setting the name of the new 4th slot graphic is also within the
#   MOG module

Oh... it is 'purist' in that it assumes the windows will slide into the default position as the original script.  For your change, look to lines 249 to 266 which YOU can edit.  Ya had it going fine yourself.    I'm just leaving it 'pure' so to speak.

Thank you.
In order to make the slection row go a little bit to the right, you need to go to line 249 - 266 and change it with this:

Code:

if @item_window.x > 269

      @weapon_window.x -= 20
      @armor_window.x -= 20
      @item2_window.x -= 20   
      @item_window.x -= 20   
      @weapon_window.contents_opacity += 15
      @armor_window.contents_opacity += 15
      @item2_window.contents_opacity += 15    
      @item_window.contents_opacity += 15    
    elsif  @item_window.x <= 269
      @weapon_window.x = 269
      @armor_window.x = 269
      @item2_window.x = 269   
      @item_window.x = 269   
      @weapon_window.contents_opacity = 250
      @armor_window.contents_opacity = 250
      @item2_window.contents_opacity = 250    
      @item_window.contents_opacity = 250    

Then, you're done. 
Btw. just found out that your revised versions changes the item slection menu in battle.
Tried putting it above and under the battle system but, it still changes it.

[DerVVulfman]

The item system assumes it is for anyone, and does not get the location of a single member of the party. For that, the default item window takes up the entire screen in two columns, unlike the Moghunter system which uses one column.

Likewise, you may not have noticed the SKILL window is the same... so I have an interesting couple of options for you:

Option 1 - Window Follows Actor

Go to the battlesystem.... Scene_Battle_3 page:
GO to the start_item_select method that is around line 405:
Underneath the line that reads:
@item_window = Window_Item.new
paste the following...
@item_window.x = @actor_index * 115

This will give you an item window that goes from left to right with each actor.

And you may not notice that the SKILL select is altered too. You can alter it the same way within the start_skill_select method a couple dozen lines up.

Option 2 - Restore full window in battle

Go to the Item Window class in the moghunter menu... the initialize method around line 346. It should have some code like below:

Code:

if $game_temp.in_battle
      self.y = 64
      self.height = 256
      self.back_opacity = 160
    end

Well... we're going to FORCE it to take up the whole display window as it used to appear, by replacing it with this:

Code:

if $game_temp.in_battle
      @column_max = 2
      self.y = 64
      self.x = 0
      self.height = 256
      self.width  = 640
      self.back_opacity = 160
      refresh
    end

Yeah, forcing it to 2 columns, a full 640 width, etc.

But we're not done yet. The item drawing method is set only for one column... so go into the draw_item method and towards line 405.
When you find the code that reads:

Code:

x = 4 + index % 1 * (288 + 32)
    y = index / 1 * 32

Paste this BELOW that code:

Code:

if $game_temp.in_battle
      x = 4 + index % 2 * (288 + 32)
      y = index / 2 * 32
    end]

So now it can handle the drawing of 2 column data while in battle.

And you may not notice that the SKILL select is affected the same way, so you may wish to use these techniques to fix up the Skill_Window class in the revised Scene_Skill Nami script too.

Thanks, for the code, I've chosen option  2 because I dont like to edit the battle sytem.
Now, I've two columuns but normally the item window is at the bottom now its in the bottom. Also the window is bigger in height than before.

[DerVVulfman]

The code I supplied, as I employed it before relaying it to you, returns the classic RMXP Item Window to the battlesystem. The default system uses two columns and fills the space between the help window above and the battlestatus below. And even after battle, I had returned to the Moggy Item window to ensure the Mog-styled Item window remained the same. From my tests, it is working fine. Mogmenu uses its custom Item window, and the battlesystem uses its default window setup.

Changes to the item (and alternately the Skill) window within battle can be made within the area(s) in the blocks of code I showed you, the ones within the if $game_temp.in_battle condition. It controls height, width, and position in the window, and if you have a 2nd column (the @column_max value). But if you decide to return column max to one, remember that I suggested adding a small block of code in the item_draw method that permits 2 columns in battle... something you would likely take back out.
