v1.1.0: Town Map Editor

New Page

  • You can town edit the town_map.txt pbs files through the editor instead of using the townmapgen.html tool. In case you're using my Region Map Plugin, make sure to enable that in the settings of the editor so it'll use the correct Graphic in Graphics/UI/Town Map/Regions instead of Graphics/UI/Town Map. If you're using using v20.1 of essentials, it should be able to auto detect that and look for the graphic in Graphics/Pictures by default or Graphics/Pictures/RegionMap/Regions if you're using Arcky's Region Map.

Improvements

  • Moved plugin settings to their own section in the Settings, this should make it easier to find and manage which ones you have installed.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a typo in the Pokémon Settings Section for Colors.
  • Fixed a crash with the EV's on the Trainers Editor Page.

v1.0.1: Bug Fixes and Improvements

Improvements

  • Added warning messages incase some Settings are missing for any reason from the Config file. This should never be the case unless you've manually edited the Config File outside of the editor but it'll not prevent a crash as well.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed the Pokémon and Pokémon Forms Page to crash when a loaded pokemon has an Evolution Method that hasn't been added to the Evolutions in the Config file. It'll now default the Parameter of this method to "None" to prevent a total crash of the application.
  • Fixed a bug with fields like "Consumable", "ShowQuantity", "Outdoor", etc. which have values either "true" or "false", where when saving these fields as "false", in the editor it would be displayed as "true".

Improvements

  • On first time running the program, it'll first give the welcome message and license agreement and only then prompt for PBS folder suggestion.
  • Upon not selecting a PBS folder or an invalid one, you'll be shown a modal giving you the choice to reselect or cancel the selection.
