State Info Popup - RPG Maker MV/MZ Plugin

Hey satukilo, thanks for your inquiry.

To set up State Info Popup with States, you will need to do the following.

1. Create a State in the States Database. Add the following to their Note section:

<State Desc>
... add your State description here ...
</State Desc>

For the purposes of this example, let's say that is State 11.

2. Go to the Skill Database. On Skills that would apply that State, add the following to their Note section:

<Show State 11>

Here we are using State 11 because we set it up before. But the 11 could be any valid State ID.

3. To set the number of frames, open the plugin in the Plugin Manager and set the Display Timer to a value of your choosing. For example, 180 would refer to 180 frames. This value applies to each time a State Window would be shown.

Above is the standard method, but you if you would like a little more control than that you can also do this operation via Script Calls. This is sometimes better for Skills that may change what States they apply. In a Troop Event or anywhere that allows a Script Call, call this:

BattleManager.showStateWindows([11, 12, 13])

By calling this function you are having the Battle Manager show the State Windows for States 11, 12, and 13. These values must be included in an array. You can save State IDs to a game variable and give it to this function or you can define the contents of the array during the execution of the skill (such as if you are using YEP Action Sequences). Once you have called this function, make sure to call this function after:

BattleManager.clearStatuses()

This will clear all the State Windows on screen. You can set it to do so on a timer so that it disappears after a number of frames.

Hope some of this helps. Let us know if you need any further help with troubleshooting this plugin.

Ah no, that’s a different one we wrote for our game Strife of Cosmos. We can make that available though as a separate plugin if folks would like to have it :)

Yes, absolutely! For a skill that adds multiple states, the Notetag syntax would be: 

<Show State X>
<Show State Y>

where X and Y can be different values. You can do this for as many states as you would like for a given Skill, just make sure that the Plugin Parameters for the Window Coordinates are set in such a way that these popups fit onto the screen and that you change the Max # of State Windows parameter to a higher value.
