Introduction The Items & Equips Core makes improvements to the RPG Maker MZ item and equipment dedicated scenes (including the shop) and how they're handled. From more item categories, better parameter control, rulings, and more, game devs are able to take control over key aspects of their game's items. Features include all (but not limited to) the following: Modifying the appearances to the Item Scene, Equip Scene, and Shop Scene. Categorizing items in unique and multiple categories. Item Scene and Shop Scene will now display detailed information on items. NEW! marker can be displayed over recently acquired items in-game. Equipment notetags to adjust parameters past the editor limitations. Equipment Rulings to adjust what slot types can and can't be unequipped and/or optimized. Equipment Type Handling offers more control over equipment loadouts. Items sold in shops can be hidden/shown based on Switches. Items sold in shops can have varying prices adjusted by notetags. Requirements This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations of RPG Maker. Tier 1 This plugin is a Tier 1 plugin. Place it under other plugins of lower tier value on your Plugin Manager list (ie: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). This is to ensure that your plugins will have the best compatibility with the rest of the VisuStella MZ Plugin library. Major Changes: New Hard-Coded Features This plugin adds some new hard-coded features to RPG Maker MZ's functions. The following is a list of them. --- Equipment Type Handling Characters will no longer have one universal equipment slot setting. Classes can have different equipment type loadouts, made possible through the usage of notetags. Also, equipment types of matching names would be treated as the same type, where previously, they would be different types. This means if you have two "Accessory" slots, be it in the form of notetags or through the Database > Types tab, they can both equip the same type of accessories. The Change Equip event command is now updated to reflect this new change. When processing an equip change, the slot changed will go to the first empty slot of matching type. If all of the actor's matching slot types are equipped, then the equip will replace the last slot available. --- Shop Status Window The Status Window found in the Shop Scene was originally barren and did not display much information at all. This is changed through this plugin's new features. While the contents of the Shop Status Window can be customized through the Plugin Parameters, it is a change that cannot be reversed and for the better since it gives players the much needed information revolving around the game's items. --- Core Engine Compatibility: Modern Controls If the VisuStella Core Engine is added to your game with Modern Controls enabled, then the Item Menu Scene, Equip Menu Scene, and Shop Menu Scene's controls will be changed a bit. The Item Menu Scene will automatically have the Item List Window active, with using the Left/Right (for single column) or Page Up/Page Down (for multi-columns) to navigate between the Item Categories. Similar will occur when trying to sell items in the Shop Menu Scene. The Equip Menu Scene will automatically have the Equip Slots Window active and only activate the command window upon moving up to it. --- VisuStella MZ Compatibility While this plugin is compatible with the majority of the VisuStella MZ plugin library, it is not compatible with specific plugins or specific features. This section will highlight the main plugins/features that will not be compatible with this plugin or put focus on how the make certain features compatible. --- Battle Core VisuStella MZ Changing the "Damage Multiplier" or "Healing Multiplier" vocabulary for the Item and Equip Core's Shop Status Window is not done with the Item and Equip Core's Plugin Parameters if you have the Battle Core installed. Instead, go to Battle Core's Plugin Parameters, Damage Settings, Damage Styles, and adjust the style's version of the "Damage Multiplier" or "Healing Multiplier" text instead. Why does this work this way? Because not all damage styles work off "Multipliers" so in order for it to convey the proper message to the player, each damage style has its own vocabulary to be more accurate. In case you forget about that, when you visit the Item and Equip Core's plugin parameters for these, it should also remind you in the parameter's description on where to change it. --- Weapon Swap System VisuStella MZ The custom equip slots feature from the VisuStella MZ Items and Equips Core allowed you to add in extra weapon slots. This is now curated up to a max of one weapon slot per character. This needs to be done to make the Weapon Swap System viable. --- Notetags RPG Maker MZ's editor is unable to allow for custom traits/properties that a game dev may wish to associate with a database object, event, map, etc. Notetags are used to work around such limitations by allowing the game dev to tag certain traits/properties using specific Notetags declared by the related plugin. Here is a list of Notetag(s) that you may use. The following are notetags that have been added through this plugin. These notetags will not work with your game if this plugin is OFF or not present. General These notetags affect the Items, Weapons, and Armors on a general scale. --- <Max: x> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Determines the maximum quantity that can be held for this item. - Replace 'x' with a number value to determine the maximum amount. --- <Color: x> <Color: #rrggbb> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor, Skill Notetags - Determines the color of the object inside the in-game menus. - Replace 'x' with a number value depicting a window text color. - Replace 'rrggbb' with a hex color code for a more custom color. --- <Category: x> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Arranges items into certain/multiple categories to work with the Category Plugin Parameter setting: "Category:x". - Replace 'x' with a category name to mark this item as. --- <Categories> x x </Categories> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Arranges items into certain/multiple categories to work with the Category Plugin Parameter setting: "Category:x". - Replace each 'x' with a category name to mark this item as. --- <Conserve: x%> - Used for: Item - Gives the item a percent chance when used to not consume the item. - Replace 'x' with a number representing the percent chance to successfully conserve the item. - If an item cannot be consumed, conserve chance will be 100% regardless. --- <ID Sort Priority: x> - Used for: Item, Weapon, and Armor Notetags - Used for Scene_Item, Scene_Equip, Scene_Battle, and Scene_Shop's sell option (only when selling). - Changes sorting priority by ID for item, weapon, or armor to 'x'. - Default priority level is '50'. - Items, weapons, and armors with higher priority values will be sorted higher up on the list while lower values will be lower on the list. --- Item Accessibility Notetags The following notetags allow you to choose when items can/cannot be used based on switches. --- <Enable Switch: x> <Enable All Switches: x,x,x> <Enable Any Switches: x,x,x> - Used for: Item Notetags - Determines the enabled status of the item based on switches. - Replace 'x' with the switch ID to determine the item's enabled status. - If 'All' notetag variant is used, item will be disabled until all switches are ON. Then, it would be enabled. - If 'Any' notetag variant is used, item will be enabled if any of the switches are ON. Otherwise, it would be disabled. --- <Disable Switch: x> <Disable All Switches: x,x,x> <Disable Any Switches: x,x,x> - Used for: Item Notetags - Determines the enabled status of the item based on switches. - Replace 'x' with the switch ID to determine the item's enabled status. - If 'All' notetag variant is used, item will be enabled until all switches are ON. Then, it would be disabled. - If 'Any' notetag variant is used, item will be disabled if any of the switches are ON. Otherwise, it would be enabled. --- JavaScript Notetags: Item Accessibility The following are notetags made for users with JavaScript knowledge to determine if an item can be accessible by code. --- <JS Item Enable> code code enabled = code; </JS Item Enable> - Used for: Item Notetags - Determines the enabled status of the item based on JavaScript code. - If the actor this is disabled for is the only party member, it will not be visible in the item list unless the VisuStella Battle Core is installed. - If the VisuStella Battle Core is installed, then all battle scope items will be visible even if they're disabled. - Replace 'code' to determine the type enabled status of the item. - The 'enabled' variable returns a boolean (true/false) to determine if the item will be enabled or not. - The 'user' variable refers to the user with the item. - The 'item' variable refers to the item being checked. - All other item conditions must be met in order for this to code to count. --- Equipment Notetags The following notetags provide equipment-related effects from deciding what equip slots can be given to classes to the base parameter changes asigned to weapons and armors. --- <Equip Slots> slotName slotName slotName </Equip Slots> - Used for: Class Notetags - Changes the equipment slot loadout for any actor who is that class. - Replace 'slotName' with an Equipment Type name from Database > Types. This is case-sensitive. - Insert or remove as many "slotName" equipment types as needed. --- <param: +x> <param: -x> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - Changes the base parameter value for the equip item. - Replace 'param' with any of the following: 'MaxHP', 'MaxMP', 'ATK', 'DEF', 'MAT', 'MDF', 'AGI', or 'LUK' to change that specific parameter's value. - These notetags do NOT work with X Parameters, S Parameters, or any custom parameters. These notetags ONLY work with the base parameters. - Replace 'x' with a number value to set the parameter value to. - This allows you to bypass the Database Editor's number limitations. --- <Equip Copy Limit: x> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - Sets a maximum number of copies that the actor can wear of this equipment. - Replace 'x' with a number value to determine the copy limit. - This can be bypassed using Event Commands and/or Script Calls. - Usage Example: Actors can only equip one copy of the "One-of-a-Kind Ring" on at any time despite having empty accessory slots because the ring has a <Equip Copy Limit: 1> notetag. --- <Equip Weapon Type Limit: x> - Used for: Weapon - This weapon cannot be equipped with other weapons of the same type once the limited amount has been reached. - Replace 'x' with a number value to determine the weapon type limit. - This can be bypassed using Event Commands and/or Script Calls. - Usage Example: A dualwielding warrior who can only equip one sword and a dagger but never two swords or two daggers because the swords and daggers all have the <Equip Weapon Type Limit: 1> notetags on them. --- <Equip Armor Type Limit: x> - Used for: Armor - This armor cannot be equipped with other armors of the same type once the limited amount has been reached. - Replace 'x' with a number value to determine the armor type limit. - This can be bypassed using Event Commands and/or Script Calls. - Usage Example: People cannot equip more than two glove accessories on at a time because the glove is a "Glove" armor-type and each glove item has the <Equip Armor Type Limit: 2> notetags on them. --- <Party Artifact> <Troop Artifact> <Stackable Party Artifact> <Stackable Troop Artifact> - Used for: Armor - This armor cannot be equipped at all. However, by simply being in the party's inventory, its parameter bonuses and traits will be applied globally throughout the whole party or troop (depending on the notetag). - Add both notetags to affect both groups. - The normal versions of the notetag is only applied once regardless of the number of copies are found in the party's inventory. - The stackable versions of the notetag will have the bonuses and traits stacked multiple times relative to the number of copies found in the party's inventory. - This item will NOT be added during the setup phase for Battle Tests. - If you want to add the item, do it manually. --- <Equip For Class Only: x> <Equip For Classes Only: x, x, x> <Equip For Class Only: name> <Equip For Classes Only: name, name, name> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - This piece of equipment can only be worn by members with 'x' as the main class. If there are multiple classes listed, at least one of them need to be the actor's main class. - Replace 'x' with a number representing the ID of the class required. - For the 'name' variant, replace 'name' with the name of the required class the actor needs to have in order to equip this object. --- <Equip Requirements> requirement requirement requirement </Equip Requirements> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - Defines a requirement(s) for the actor to meet in order for the equip item to be equippable. - Failure to meet these requirements will cause the equipment to unequip automatically. - Keep in mind that in some cases, this will not happen immediately. Things like switches will require the actor to meet its cache clear in order to trigger the automatic unequip. - Some ways to trigger a cache clear would be to change the actor's HP/MP, or adding and then removing a state for the actor (preferrably an unused state that has no real effect). - Replace 'requirement' with one of the settings bellow: - Add multiple 'requirement' lines for more requirements. Requirements: param > x param >= x param === x param <= x param < x - Replace 'param' with 'level', 'maxhp', 'maxmp', 'atk', 'def', 'mat', 'mdf', 'agi', or 'luk'. - This will make the piece of equipment require the actor's base parameter to be greater than (>), greater than or equal to (>=), equal to (===), less than or equal to (<=), or less than (<). - This is NOT the value for the total parameter, only the base parameter. - The base parameter is calculated by the user's class parameter value and any bonuses received through permanent stat increases. learned skill: x learned skill: name - This will make the piece of equipment require the actor to have learned skill 'x'. - If 'name' is used, priority will be given to the skill with the highest ID in the database. - The actor needs to have LEARNED the skill. This means that if you have added a skill to the actor's kit through a trait, it will not count. switch: x - This will require switch X to be on. - If it isn't, the piece of equipment cannot be worn. - Insert multiple of these to add more switches that are are required to be on. ***NOTE 1*** There is no "class: x" for these equip requirements. Instead, use the <Equip For Class Only: x> notetags. ***NOTE 2*** For those wondering where "unique only" is, that does not exist in this plugin. Instead, use the <Equip Copy Limit: x> notetag listed above. Example A: <Equip Requirements> level >= 20 </Equip Requirements> - Requires the user to be at least level 20 in order to equip. Example B: <Equip Requirements> atk >= 50 def <= 50 </Equip Requirements> - Requires the user have at least 50 base ATK to equip. - Requires the user to be under 50 base DEF to equip. --- <Added EType: x> <Added ETypes: x, x, x> - Used for: Armor Notetags - This is for armors only and does NOT work with weapons! - Allows a piece of armor to belong to multiple ETypes. This means a glove can be equipped as "Armgear" or as an "Accessory" if you so choose. - Replace 'x' with a number representing the ID of the EType you wish to add to the list of ETypes. - Insert multiple 'x' entries to add more than one EType ID. --- <Cursed> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - If this weapon or armor is equipped, it cannot manually be removed by the player until it is purified. - To remove it, it must be done by event commands, script calls, or through the Purify-related Plugin Commands provided by this plugin. - Once purified, the weapon or armor will become unequipped unless it has a purify transformation. - If the newly transformed weapon/armor is equippable, it will remain in the actor's equipment slots. - If you are using VisuMZ_2_WeaponSwapSystem, weapons cannot become cursed in order to allow free weapon swapping. Weaponry will not be cursed if VisuMZ_2_WeaponSwapSystem is installed. --- <Purify Transform: id> <Purify Transform: name> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - If this notetag is present on a <Cursed> weapon or armor, then upon the actor receiving purification, the weapon or armor will transform into a different item. - Replace 'id' with a number representing the transformed weapon/armor's ID. - Replace 'name' with text representing the transformed weapon/armor's name. - Weapons can only transform into weapons. - Armors can only transform into armors. --- JavaScript Notetags: Equipment The following are notetags made for users with JavaScript knowledge to adjust the parameter through code. --- <JS Parameters> MaxHP = code; MaxMP = code; ATK = code; DEF = code; MAT = code; MDF = code; AGI = code; LUK = code; </JS Parameters> - Used for: Weapon, Armor Notetags - Uses JavaScript to determine the values for the basic parameters based on the code used to calculate its value. - The variables 'MaxHP', 'MaxMP', 'ATK', 'DEF', 'MAT', 'MDF', 'AGI', and 'LUK' are used to determine the finalized value of the parameter. This variable is case sensitive. - If a parameter is not present, its value will be treated as +0. '''WARNING!''' If you are trying to calculate a value based off a full parameter value, such as "ATK = user.atk * 0.10", it's going to break and will cause an infinite loop. Use base parameter values instead. --- Status Window Notetags The following notetags will affect the Shop Status Window info. If for any reason the data that is displayed is not to your liking or insufficient, you can change it up using the following notetags. --- <Status Info> key: data key: data key: data </Status Info> - Used for: Skill, Item Notetags - If you do not like the generated data that's displayed, you can change it using this notetag to display what you want. - Replace 'key' with one of the following: - Consumable - Quantity - Occasion - Scope - Speed - Success Rate - Repeat - Hit Type - Element - Damage Multiplier - HP Recovery - MP Recovery - TP Recovery - HP Damage - MP Damage - TP Damage - User TP Gain - Added Effects - Removed Effects - Replace 'data' with the text data you want to visually appear. You may use text codes for this. - This only affects info entries that are already visible and won't make other categories suddenly appear. - Insert or remove as many "key: data" lines as needed. --- <Custom Status Info> key: data key: data key: data </Custom Status Info> - Used for: Skill, Item Notetags - If you want custom categories and data to be displayed for your items that aren't provided by the Shop Status Window Info to begin with, you can use this notetag to add in your own entries. - Replace 'key' with text of the exact label you want. You may use text codes for this. - Replace 'data' with text of the exact text data you want. You may use text codes for this. - Insert or remove as many "key: data" lines as needed. --- <Shop Picture Name: filename> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Enables a shop picture for the status window. This image can be seen in the item scene, shop scene, and skill scene if enabled. - If this notetag is not used, there will be no image. - Replace 'filename' with the filename of the graphic to use from the game project's img/pictures/ folder. Filenames are case sensitive. Leave out the filename extension from the notetag. - Use the supporting notetags to determine where the image appears. If not, they will default to the background, fit to the window dimensions, centered at the middle of the window. --- <Shop Picture Layer: Background> <Shop Picture Layer: Foreground> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Determines which layer the graphic will be drawn on. - If the background layer is selected, the picture will appear behind the data text. - If the foreground layer is selected, the picture will appear in front of the data text. - If this notetag is not used, it will default to the background layer. --- <Shop Picture Max Width: x> <Shop Picture Max Height: y> <Shop Picture Max Dimensions: x, y> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Determines the maximum width and/or height for the image. - This means the image will be automatically scaled proportionally to that width or height as long as everything else does not break boundaries. - Replace 'x' and 'y' with number values representing the maximum dimensions the image can be in pixels. - If these notetags are not used, the image will be automatically scaled to the dimensions of the shop status window. --- <Shop Picture Alignment: Left> <Shop Picture Alignment: Center> <Shop Picture Alignment: Right> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Adjusts the horizontal alignment for the image. - Left, center, right determines how it's aligned horizontally if the image does not horizontally fit in the width of the window. - If any of these notetags are not used, the image will default to the 'center' alignment. --- <Shop Picture Position: Top> <Shop Picture Position: Middle> <Shop Picture Position: Bottom> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Adjusts the vertical position for the image. - Top, middle, bottom determines how it's positioned vertically if the image does not vertically fit in the width of the window. - If any of these notetags are not used, the image will default to the 'middle' position. --- <Shop Picture Offset X: +x> <Shop Picture Offset X: -x> <Shop Picture Offset Y: +y> <Shop Picture Offset Y: -y> <Shop Picture Offset: +x, +y> <Shop Picture Offset: -y, -y> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Offsets the X and Y positions of the image in the shop status window. - X offsets adjust the horizontal position by x pixels. - Positive goes right. - Negative goes left. - Y offsets adjust the horizontal position by y pixels. - Positive goes down. - Negative goes up. - Replace 'x' and 'y' with number values representing the pixels to offset the image by. The '+' and '-' signs are required. - If none of these notetags are used, there will be no offsets. --- <Shop Picture Opacity: x> <Shop Picture Opacity: x%> - Used for: Skill, Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Adjusts the opacity of the image used. - When using 'x' and not 'x%', use a number between 0 and 255. - The closer to 0, the more transparent the image is. - The closer to 255, the more opaque the image is. - When using 'x%' and not 'x', use a number between 0% and 100%. - The closer to 0%, the more transparent the image is. - The closer to 100%, the more opaque the image is. --- Shop Menu Notetags These notetags adjust how prices and such are managed inside the Shop Menu as well as whether or not some items are visible depending on switch states. --- <Price: x> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Adjusts the buying price for this item. - Replace 'x' with a number depicting the desired value for the buy price. - This allows you to bypass the RPG Maker MZ editor's limitation of 999,999. --- <Can Sell> <Cannot Sell> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Makes the item either always sellable or cannot be sold. - This bypasses the game's internal hard-coding to prevent items with a price of 0 from being able to be sold. - This bypasses the game's internal hard-coding to always allow items with a price value of being able to be sold. --- <Sell Price: x> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Changes the sell price to be something different than the default amount. - Replace 'x' with a number depicting the desired value for the sell price. --- <Show Shop Switch: x> <Show Shop All Switches: x,x,x> <Show Shop Any Switches: x,x,x> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - Determines the visibility of the shop item based on switches. - Replace 'x' with the switch ID to determine the shop item's visibility. - If 'All' notetag variant is used, item will be hidden until all switches are ON.

Help file updated for new features. Added warning to <JS Parameters>: If you are trying to calculate a value based off a full parameter value, such as "ATK = user.atk * 0.10", it's going to break and will cause an infinite loop. Use base parameter values instead. New Features! New notetags added by Irina: <ID Sort Priority: x> Used for Scene_Item, Scene_Equip, Scene_Battle, and Scene_Shop's sell option (only when selling).
