I made a location system that updates the player's location completely by itself!
It comes with both a minimap and a new page for your game menu - all you need is a map image (and optionally a "you are here" indicator):
My old approach to update the player's location was the following:
Code: Select all
scene hallway with dissolve
$ current_location = "hallway"
The cool thing about the new location system is that manually setting "current_location" won't be necessary.
The location will change automatically with every scene statement, which is fool-proof and saves a ton of tedious work!
It simply grabs the location from the currently displayed background image. This requires some extra setup to work, but it will be immensely worth it in the long run.
