Default Actions

Not sure how comprehensible this will be, but hopefully it helps

im not great with rm2k3 so this is pretty unoptimised ):

Things needed:

Default animation (sitting in this case)

Default Switch (called [USE]None in this tutorial)

Variable for the button input (called Use Effect in this tutorial)

If the action is toggled, you will also need:

Toggle Switch (called Is Sitting in this tutorial)

Sprites in the final state of the action (sitting and standing in this case)

This will be a common event with a parallel process trigger and no condition switch

Sprites needed (visual demo):

Sitting (Called: “Full Yoshika Sheet Three alt, 7”):

(this is the most space efficient way of fitting them, at first i had left and right directions separately)

Standing (Called: “Full Yoshika Sheet, 1”):

~~~~~~

First, you'll need to set up key input processing for the key you'll use for the action:

(this is found on page three)

You will need a conditional branch for when the input variable is pressed (in this case it's the 1 button, so the variable will be equal to 11)

(This branch doesn't need an else statement)

Inside this branch, you will need another conditional branch to check if the Default Switch is on

(This branch also doesn't need an else statement)

Inside this branch (sorry there are so many nested branches T-T) you will need a conditional branch for the player's direction (unless the direction doesn't matter)

(This branch also doesn't need an else statement)

The final nested branch is for toggle effects and it checks if the toggle switch is off

(This branch does need an else statement)

For sitting down, you need to:

Set move route to Wait (I did 3x)

Hide player character

Change player sprite to sitting (or whatever your default is)

Show animation

Unhide player character

Set move route to Wait (repeat) (So the player can't move while sitting)

Set the input variable back to 0

Turn on the Toggle Switch

What it should look like:

The else section is used for standing up, and you need to:

Set move route to Wait (I did 3x)

Hide player character

Change player sprite to standing

Show animation

Unhide Player character

Set input variable back to 0

Turn Toggle Switch off

What it should look like:

You need to copy/paste this for each of the directions (don't accidentally paste it into the previous direction, it won't break the code or cause an error, but it'll not work for that direction)

~~~~~~

And then you're done :D

Hopefully it was understandable :3

Sleep wake event for YNFGs

This is a sleep wake event for Yume Nikki Fangames that involve beds.

Honestly I’m only writing this bc i feel like my computer’s going to delete all my progress towards the game and i cannot be bothered to brute force it again. Hopefully this helps someone else though. 

(This was made using the steam version, idk if it makes a difference though)

So, Step one is to have at least three maps:

Real life bedroom

Sleeping bedroom

Dream map 

Make sure that there is a switch that is toggled when entering and exiting the dream world. I called mine sleep.

Step Two is to make your animations. There will be three needed:

Walking into the bed

Walking out of bed

Cheek pinch/whatever wake up thing you have.

Step Three is to bind your key. This means that whenever this key is pressed It will do the code that attached to it. To bind your key: 

Create a common event and call it Button input

Create a second common event and call it Wake up_ (Although this isn’t necessary, if you put all the code into one event, Your mc will slide around during the animation)_

In the Button input event, find the key input processing button _(should be on page three) _and open it.

In key input processing choose your variable _(It’s best to call it input processing or something similar but you can technically name it whatever) _and unselect every button except the one you want (normally the number key)

It should look like this:

Step Four is to call the event Wake up withing the Button input event and turn the button input event into a Parallel Process

Step Five is to switch to the Wake up event and turn it into an autorun event with a condition switch (This switch has to be unique for this event and can be called anything (mine’s called ----------))

Step Six is to create the wake up event itself - I cant explain it that well so i’m just going to add a screenshot:

If you want your wake up key to be 9 you have to choose 19, else follow the instructions on the key input processing.

The final Step is to play the animations for getting into and out of bed. 

Getting into bed:

Create an event on the bed, set the trigger to ‘action button’ and the priority to ‘same as player’

Hide player, show the animation, and transfer player to the sleeping bedroom

You can turn the sleep switch on here, or in the timer section

In the sleeping bedroom, set an even that is ‘Autorun’ and make it so that a timer is set for 3 seconds and transfers player to the dreamworld when it counts down

It should look like this:

Getting out of bed:

Create an event on the floor next to the Go to bed event, make its trigger ‘Autorun’, its priority ‘below characters’, and its switch ‘sleep’ (or whatever you called the switch that tells the difference between real-life and dreams)

set it so that it makes the mc transparent (if not already done so)

Set it so it shows the get out of bed animation

Show your mc

Turn off the Sleep Switch

Erase event (It doesn't actually erase the event but idk what it does) 

This is what it should look like:

You should then have a working going to bed and waking up event!

This was messily written and probably not optimized to the fullest extent but hopefully it is understandable.
