Custom Gauges

New plugin parameter Custom Gagues allows you create own gauges and then add them (show, hide) during game via script calls

For example, it’s can be used for make some boss HP gauge for fight or show some variable values

You can bind gauge to enemy, any event or screen. You can make gauge global (will be visible on any map). Gauge can read values from enemy (HP rate) or any variable.

Use next script calls:

  • uAPI.addCustomGaugeForVariable(GAUGE_ID, VARIABLE_ID, BINDED_EVENT_ID, X, Y, IS_GLOBAL);
  • uAPI.addCustomGaugeForEnemy(GAUGE_ID, ENEMY_EVENT_ID, BINDED_EVENT_ID, X, Y);
  • uAPI.removeVariableCustomGauge(VARIABLE_ID);
  • uAPI.removeEnemyCustomGauge(ENEMY_EVENT_ID);

Auto Battle BGM

New plugin parameter Battle Auto BGM allows you setup default sound when player engage in any fight.

The feature of this mode is that the music playing earlier (default map BGM) will be replays from the previous position (not from start again),
which allows you to create a smooth music change

You can specify battle music for any map via notetag <battleAutoBgm:NAME>

Or you can manually start (stop) music for certain battle via script calls:

uAPI.playBattleBgm(NAME, DELAY);
uAPI.stopBattleBgm(DELAY);
