[b]Hello everyone! Many thanks to all of you, "RPG Developer Bakin" has celebrated one year since its Early Access launch! [/b] [b]We are pleased to announce Ver. 1.5, the 37th update in the year since its release! [/b] [previewyoutube=vrH4AF8uddM;full][/previewyoutube] This time, we have implemented functions to increase the timing of intervention in battle scenes and to facilitate changes and the flow of battles. By combining the functions added to the event panels, you can expand the range of expressions and systems for battles. In addition, the ability to add cast and class statuses were implemented. For example, you can add statuses such as "Skill Defense" and "Luck," which can be referenced from damage formulas, events, Layout Tool, etc. How you utilize the added statuses in the game is up to you! The Database also has additional functions to further customize level and status growth curves. In addition, the Layout Tool now can make menu decisions with a single click. By combining this functionality with Free Layout, it is possible to activate it simply by clicking on an image button on the screen. [b]Please check out the contents of this update, which adds a variety of new features![/b] [hr][/hr] [h3] --- New and Improved Features ---[/h3] [b][Adding Statuses, Level and Status Growth Curve Adjustment] [/b] [b][Database] [/b] [b]- A "Status Editor" dialog has been implemented to add/delete statuses. [/b] It can be opened from the button in the Basic tab under "Casts" and "Classes". You can add statuses, set names, keywords and numbers to refer to them.

This function is only available when an individual status is selected as "Target Status". Click on "Addition Value to Class Level" to turn it on, then enter the value in the spin box next to it. A dotted line graph will be displayed with the status value added of "[cast level + set value] class level".[/expand] [b][Events] [/b] - Added "Obtain Cast Status" panel and "Obtain Item Parameter" panel to the "Statuses" category and "Variable Boxes" category. - The following event panel UI has been modified to accommodate the addition/deletion of statuses. --"Item Enhancement" panel --"Change Cast Status" panel (renamed from "Increase/Decrease Cast's Ability Value") --"Get Battle Information" panel [b][Layout Tool] [/b] - With the ability to add statuses, the special format parameters used to display status-related information have been changed. The existing parameters are retained, so there is no need to change the current layout data. For parameters, see "Special Format Parameter Details" on the right side of the Special Format Insert Dialog when you select the appropriate special format in the dialog. - Added the special format \growthfactorname which displays the status name. [b][Related to Battle Scene Customization] [/b] [b][Events][/b] [b]- The timing for inserting battle events has been increased, making it easier to add various effects and dramatic elements to the battle scene.

[b][Database] [/b] [b]- Added "Activate after Completion of Common Event" to the Basic tab of Skills. [/b] This makes it easier to "activate a skill after the cut-in effect".

[expand type=details]For example, if the HP consumption of Skill A is specified as 10 and the consumed item is "10 gems," even if the display of MP consumption is specified in the layout data, it can be automatically hidden in the game. Please refer to the description section of the skill being selected on the Skill Selection screen in the System Layout. [/expand] [b][Events] [/b] - Added the ability to obtain analog values for each axis using the "Operation Key" in the "Advanced Variable Box Operation" panel. 　　(Analog) is an input type that allows obtaining the strength of the input as a decimal value between 0 and 1, if the gamepad supports analog input. 　　If digital input is made with a device such as a keyboard or directional keys, the value will be 0 or 1. - Improved the player's operation to be allowed when a conversation/message is displayed in a parallel event. - About the "Call C# Program" panel: bool return/parameters and Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Vector2/Vector3/Vector4 style parameters are now supported. [h3] --- Bug Fixes ---[/h3] [b][Map Editor] [/b] - Fixed a bug that prevented the deletion of a map in a project immediately after it was newly created. - When rotating an object on the editor, the object is now not placed on top of the object, even when "Place on Top" is ON. - Fixed a bug that could cause the delete operation on the Common Events palette to not work correctly. - The behavior of the Quick Toolbar when locked in the Placed List palette has been modified to be matched with objects and events. - Fixed a bug that could cause destination symbols that still had referents to disappear. [b][Layout Tool] [/b] - Fixed a bug in which the set display origin was not accurately reflected when multiple lines were displayed in the text panel of the Layout Tool. [u][b]For example, when two lines of text were displayed in a text panel with the display origin centered, the center of the first line was displayed as the origin. This correction will allow the text panel to be centered correctly. This may affect the layout you have created, so please take a moment to check your project. [/b][/u] - Fixed a bug that caused "Enhanceable Items" to always appear at the top of the list when "Database Order" sorting was used in the layout properties. - Fixed a bug that caused the layout of speech bubbles to be corrupted when trying to display long text that could not be displayed in the size set in the properties of the layout part in the speech bubble. - Fixed a bug that caused shortcut keys such as Ctrl+C to react incorrectly while renaming layout parts. - Fixed behavior so that Free Layout for Event screens displayed from menus, etc., can be hidden by the event's Free Layout for Event hide process. - Fixed a bug in "Skill Activator Selection" where the auto-sort setting for skills was not working. [b][Database] [/b] - In the battle formula, a bug has been corrected in which the calculation order was not calculated correctly when operators of the same priority, such as * and /, + and -, were arranged without parentheses. [u][b]As a result of the above, the calculation results of the existing formulas may change. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. [/b][/u] - Fixed a bug in which the damage formula was not correctly reflected when colliding with a cast whose type setting was "Enemy" or "Both" on a map. [u]Please note that in cases where random numbers are used in the damage formula, the damage will vary. The default damage formula includes a random number (rand) added to the end of the formula. 　(max(a.atk / 2.5 - b.def / 4, 0) + a.eatk * b.edef) * rand(0.9, 1)[/u] - Fixed a bug in which changes in the status of percentage-designated states/equipped items were not reflected correctly when leveling up or loading game save data.

[b][Play Execution Issues] [/b] - Fixed a bug where if the player was on an event and the event sheet change occurred and the size of the collision changed, the riding state could not be released. - Fixed a bug in which the "color of the hidden part" of the cast member who newly took the lead became transparent when the first cast member finished a battle in the KO state and the order of the Party Train was switched. [b][Battles] [/b] - Fixed a bug that prevented skills with a common event set to be called when the skill target is "None" for both allies and enemies from being activated during battles. - Fixed a bug in which the scale of events placed on the battle background was not reflected. - Fixed a bug that prevented the "Make Battle Cast as Operation Target" panel from displaying emoticons and effects targeting "This Event" during battles and events.
