Limited Sight EX - Limited the sight / visibility range of the player.

Limited Sight EX RPG Maker Plugin by Soulpour777

Description:

I know how much we love to make Horror Games for RPG Maker. With this plugin, you will be able to limit the player’s sight or visibility range, to create that seemingly isolated range for your characters.

how clever, is it an alpha map that follows the player?
[doublepost=1448407250,1448406978][/doublepost]and why do you use the Imported object for?
you are using your Soulpour777 object for everything else.
[doublepost=1448407428][/doublepost]Finished reading your code, it is very clever done. Does changes done in events persist through saving and loading a game or will it return to the default value?

 

[Boy Who Codes]

It will still persist the data, this means that the limited sight image will still be there upon saving. The imported function, allows me to create variables on an own separate part from the Imported class I made. So it won't clash with other variables from the plugins I do. It makes me create objects that holds information I want. One last reason I do that is personally a preference.

 

[eivl]

I see.. Well the import object looks like something you would do in ruby and not JS, but i see that it is personal preference ;)

 

[Boy Who Codes]

You can also do that in JS. To be short, it allows me to have my own module variables that I can call and separate from global variables, and so even if I have a repeated variable of the same name, they won't clash, since they were of a different module.

 

[eivl]

You are correct, but my original question was why you use it when you have Soulpour777

var Imported = Imported || {};
  Imported.LimitedSight = true;
  var Soulpour777 = Soulpour777 || {};

You could just as easily save everything in the Soulpour777 namespace.
What Imported looks like is when you are not able to check what plugins have already been loaded.
It looks like a coding convention brought from VXAce.
[doublepost=1448441902,1448441830][/doublepost]But a very nice plugin, i am just curious ;)

 

[Boy Who Codes]

Ohhh, that? Well, it lets me save all the variables from LimitedSight to the main module, Soulpour777.

Well first of all, you need to place the images in the right folder. Then copy the js file and place it under the plugins folder. Installing the plugin comes in next. If you have no idea how that goes, here's a video explaining how to install a plugin:

Spent the day doing a lot of trial and error. Was confused about activating it through a control switch event. finally stumbled upon it. I'm bad at this :( thanks a bunch for taking the time to reply and thank you for the plugin.
