This is for enabling/disabling scripts with ease, as well as returning whether or not a script exists in your editor.

Warning from Tsunokiette

Has not been tested yet.

EDIT: see later post

add this attribute accessor to each script you want to be able to enable/disable-

Code:

attr_accessor   :status

and then under the initialize method, add this -

Code:

#-----------------
# alias initialize
#-----------------
alias    :initialize_original    :initialize
def initialize
    @status = 'enabled'
    initialize_original
end
#---------
# Status
#---------
def status
    return @status
end

* How to Use *

To call a script with the newly added enable/disable ability, simply use this line

Code:

Script.new(script_name)

eg.

Code:

Script.new(Scene_Menu)

even if it's a scene


To disable it, use this line

Code:

Script.disable(script_name)

eg.

Code:

Script.disable(Scene_Menu)

To enable a script once it's been disabled, use this line

Code:

Script.enable(script_name)

eg.

Code:

Script.enable(Scene_Menu)

To return whether or not a script exists in the editor, use this line

Code:

Script.exist?(script_name)

eg.

Code:

Script.exist?(Scene_Menu)
