Resource Better Region Map v1.0

[MishaKozlovacki]

Right now, this won't work with anything in v19, because it's only been updated for v18. But there's no reason this would be incompatible with the Map Exporter if it was updated, the two are working with entirely different script sections.

understood. Thank you so much

 

[PauloJugoslavia]

Will there be a v19 update? :)

I suppose not. If anyone can update the script and upload it then it would be helpful.

hey dose any one know if their is a version for v19?

 

[ShinyRaichu94]

If someone can update this script to v20.1, I would really appreciate it.

 

[Alpha Zetanium XYZ]

Hello! i wanted to ask if this can be updated to 19.1+? have a good day! sorry im too weird to write a comment

 

[Arcky]

I've been working hard on this script to make it compatible with v20.1 and I actually managed to do it!
Here's the download link:
Tested in base essentials so it should work for your project as well. Have fun!

I did, it'll soon be added to the thread but you can check my comment above

@Arcky
I tried using your v20.1 compatibility fix, but it caused ENOENT when opening the Town Map.

Spoiler: Error message

This is probably because it tries to fetch the file by Trainer gender, not by Trainer class.

    if @show_player
      map_metadata = $game_map.metadata
      if playerpos[0] == @region
        gender = $Trainer.gender.to_digits(3)
        mapsize = map_metadata.town_map_size
        @map_x = playerpos[1]
        @map_y =  playerpos[2]
        if mapsize != nil
          sqwidth  = mapsize[0]
          sqheight = (mapsize[1].length.to_f / mapsize[0]).ceil
        else
          sqwidth = 1
          sqheight = 1
        end
        @map_x += ($game_player.x * sqwidth / $game_map.width).floor if sqwidth > 1
        @map_y += ($game_player.y * sqheight / $game_map.height).floor if sqheight > 1
        @window["player"].bmp("Graphics/Pictures/mapPlayer#{gender}")
        @window["player"].x = TileWidth * @map_x + (TileWidth / 2.0)
        @window["player"].y = TileHeight * @map_y + (TileHeight / 2.0)
        @window["player"].center_origins
      end
    end

hey, thank you for reporting this issue but it can actually be easily solved by naming the player icons the way it was intented

just like on the image above. I don't see any reason to make it use trainer class instead as it works just fine this way and when you have 3 genders or more it'll still work as it is using the same gender ID the game uses by default. I hope you understand.

 

[Arcky]

Hey, hey everyone, thanks to @darkonius Mavaker (discord name) for reporting this bug/issue. I just updated the download link which now contains the updated version. If you have any issues you can contact me on discord and I'll try my best to help you out (can't promise though xD). Have a great day!
You can either download the new version here or from the plugin page itself.

On the Discord server, Golisopod User made a fix for this, which is to change the erroneous line to:

filename = GameData::TrainerType.player_map_icon_filename($player.trainer_type)
@window["player"].bmp(filename)

I have just updated the plugin and it includes that now and also another fix I discovered when using "hidden islands" now it'll hide the encounter data. When a pokemon can only be found on a hidden map it'll say "Area Unkown" as long as the hidden island is hidden. If there are other bugs, you can always contact me on discord

Can you switch the Better Region map from the Town map to the Pokegear map?

 

[DeltaZ]

Better Region map has a bug that as soon as you move the map, the cursor no longer aligns with the city icons etc.

Hi there,

I updated Arcky's updated script for v20.1 to be compatible with the newer v21.1

Install notes : Just unzip in your project's root folder, so the graphics are properly replaced

So far everything I tested works, if there's something wrong you may contact me on discord :)
