v21.1 Egg Steps Display 1.0

This resource pertains to version 21.1 of Pokémon Essentials.

[Plugin] Egg Steps Display - Track Your Hatching Progress​


Egg Steps Display is a quality-of-life plugin that removes the guesswork from egg hatching. Instead of vague messages like "It moves occasionally", players can see the exact number of steps remaining directly in the Party and Summary screens.

It also features a visual progress bar that changes color as the egg gets closer to hatching!

Key Features​


  • Exact Step Counts: Replaces vague flavor text with precise numbers (e.g., "534 steps remaining").
  • Visual Progress Bar: a sleek bar that fills up as you walk.
  • Dynamic Coloring: The text and bar change color based on progress:
    • Gray: Long way to go (>500 steps)
    • Orange: Getting closer (<500 steps)
    • Green: Ready to hatch!
  • Live Overlay (Optional): Can display a live step counter on the game screen while walking (disabled by default).
  • Fully Configurable: Customize colors, fonts, positions, and thresholds.



Configuration​


All settings are found in [FILE][000] Settings.rb[/FILE].
