v21.1 Instant Messages 1.1.2

The only file that was changed was 004_MessagesUI. You only need to replace that file with the updated one for this update.

Change Log

• Fixed player message handling so you can have just a single string instead of choices. This message will appear just like NPC messages would (no player input).

BEFORE UPDATING ANY FILES: If you have made any edits the Settings or Configurations for the plugin, make sure to make a backup of those files before updating the plugin. If you copy over files to update, it will overwrite your changes. I recommend you duplicate your Configuration files and rename them, so they won't be overwritten when you update.

Change Log

• New feature: Sorting Conversations. Using the SPECIAL key, you can sort the group list by Newest first, Unread first, or Alphabetically.
• New feature: Pinning Conversations. Using the ACTION key, you can toggle whether or not a group is pinned to the top of the group list.
• New feature: Timestamps. Added timestamps, which will appear above individual conversations. Along with this, I've changed the old divider to show "Unread" to help distinguish which messages the player hasn't yet seen.
• New feature: Delayed Messages. Using pbPendDelayedIM, pend an Instant Message to be sent to the player after a set number of steps/amount of time. These messages take priority over Sequential or Random passive messages. For example, you might want your rival to send you a message 60 minutes after the battle you just had.
• New feature: Pending Random Messages. In addition to messages included in the predefined PASSIVE_TRIGGERS_RANDOM_POOL, you can add messages to that pool dynamically using pbPendRandomIM. For example, you can pend a random message after talking to a minor NPC, without having to create a switch to keep track that you talked to them.
• Added 3 new settings to control new features: SHOW_TIME_STAMPS, ALLOW_SORTING, and ALLOW_PINNING
• Changed the Delay Time/Variable parameter used in conversation configurations to now use seconds instead of frames
• Fixed issue where v21 frames checking wasn't properly implemented
• Fixed issue where on_step_taken handler was being used instead of on_player_step_taken for passive triggers
• Fixed issue where new groups or groups with new messages weren't being sorted to the top of the group list
• Fixed issue where the group list was only showing 6 groups at a time
• Fixed issue where the up/down arrows weren't implemented for long lists of groups
