Small plugins are plugins that are not expected to require more than 1 months worth of work. Please note that since development can have unexpected surprises, there is no guarantee that this plugin will be completed in one month or less, however I have never yet missed a deadline and have been running this poll for over a year now.
For March 2024's small plugin, would you like to see...
FaceSet Generator - This would be similar to my IconSet Generator. It would take individual face files (either 1 face or 1 face on an empty sheet of 8) and combine them into a sheet full of 8 faces each. This would be a developer tool meant to help you get your face sets into a full sheet, as they may have been downloaded or generated individually.
Skip Title - This plugin would allow you to skip the title screen and go straight to a new game, where a title sequence could be evented. It would also provide the option to load the most recently used save file.
Repel and Lure - Add an effect to an item that can raise or lower the frequency of encounters, such as an item that halves or removes encounters for 100 steps. I would also look to allow a completely custom encounter rate (0-100%) instead of the default encounter half (50%)/none (0%) for equipment.
Window Cursor - Add a window cursor to selectable and command windows. It would be an image you can choose to use as a cursor, with an x/y offset, and a few other configurable options. I would also look into adding animations for the cursor and a mirror option to show the cursor on both sides of the selectable option, but most likely these would be future alpha updates.
Timer - A plugin that would allow much more customization of the timer in the game. Things such as adding or subtracting time, pausing time, changing timer appearance, label text, and more.
Menu Screen - A menu customization that would allow for more control over the information displayed in the actor window of the menu, as well as a horizontal option to show the actors/menu commands horizontally instead of vertically. I would also look to change the gold window to a window that could include the location and playtime (optional).
Quality of Life - A plugin aimed at making the game more friendly to the player. It would be an assortment of options such as always allowing battle escapes to succeed, full heal on level up or battle end, hit/evade rate increasing if the player is low hp, etc.
At 11:59PM CST February 29th (Thursday), this poll will close and I will start working on the plugin with the most votes. In case of a tie, I will choose one of the plugins that received the most votes.
