VisuStella MZ This plugin is a part of the VisuStella MZ Plugin Library. Click here if you want to help support VisuStella on Patreon. Introduction This plugin allows you to add new properties to tiles, by marking them with regions or assigning those properties to the terrain tags. These new unique tile effects allow more player and event interactivity with the environment. Such interactivity ranges from tiles that cause the character to slide from one end to the other to other tiles that bounce the character forward. Features include all (but not limited to) the following: Slippery tiles will cause affected characters on them to slide forward until they stop and hit a solid object or wall. Some tiles can force movement in a specific direction by simply standing on top of them. Pitfall tiles can have the player dropping into them and taking damage. Objects can also be thrown into them and having them erased. The player and characters can now fall into the water and drown. However, players can also learn how to swim and turn water tiles into traversible parts of the map. Quicksand tiles will cause affected characters to sink down further whenever they take a step up to a limited amount of times. Lava tiles will cause affected characters to burn constantly. Shock tiles instantly jolt characters that step upon them. If it's the player, send them back to their previous position, too. Bounce tiles will cause characters that step onto them to bounce forward a certain number of tiles based on the bounce strength. Requirements This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations of RPG Maker. Tier 4 This plugin is a Tier 4 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. Extra Features There are some extra features found if other VisuStella MZ plugins are found present in the Plugin Manager list. --- Movement Effects VisuStella MZ Footstep sounds can be played for certain unique tiles if the VisuStella MZ Movement Effects plugin is installed. Modify the settings found in the Plugin Parameters to allow them to do so. --- 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. --- Movement Effects VisuStella MZ Smart Rush, Smart Jump, and Smart Blink cannot be used while on certain unique tiles, like slippery tiles and force move tiles. This is because the movement behavior will conflict with these tiles' properties. Some actions like Smart Rush will be cut short when going onto these regions. The general footstep sound effects will also stop playing on these unique tiles. Instead, different sound effects declared through the Unique Tile Effects plugin will be played instead. Both Smart Rush and Smart Jump can move the player into a pitfall and other similar tiles. Smart Blink, however, will not. --- Event Chain Reactions VisuStella MZ While on certain unique tiles, some objects cannot be pushed or pulled. For example, the player cannot pull objects with the Plugin Commands while there is a slippery tile or force move tile behind the player. Objects also cannot be pulled while on unique tiles like slippery tiles and force move tiles. --- Warning! RPG Maker MZ Version 1.5.0+ Water-Tile Bug! It seems like there's a new bug that occurs if you create a tileset from scratch in RPG Maker MZ version 1.5.0+ and version 1.6.0+! What this bug does is it causes many tiles to become water tiles without intending to. You can find this out by turning off all the plugins in your project, putting a Ship or Boat on what are normally ground tiles, and then seeing the Ship or Boat traverse through it. Naturally, this causes problems with the Unique Tile Effects plugin as the water tiles allow for swimming and drowning. There are two ways to fix this. We cannot fix it through code in this plugin as it's a problem that involves the tileset json data there are ways to work around it so that you can get the proper water-flags to go where they need to be at. --- Copy a working un-bugged tileset onto the currently bugged one and reapply the tile features like passability, terrain tags, etc. This will make sure the water-passability tiles get copied over correctly. If you're on RPG Maker MZ version 1.5.0 or above, select a working un-bugged tileset (usually a pre-existing tileset when a new project is made), click the "Copy Page" button, go to the bugged tileset and press "Paste Page". You'll have to reapply any different properties like passabilities and terrain tags, but the water tile flags should now be working properly. --- 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. --- Bounce Tile-Related Notetags Bounce tiles will cause affected characters that step over them to jump forward a specified amount of spaces based on their regions/terrain tags. This allows characters to scale past obstacles and/or other events! This jump effect has no rules other than it jumps forward that many spaces. The no rules bit means the jump tile is capable of launching characters into walls and/or on top of other events, so place your bounce tiles carefully! We are not responsible for any weird landing locations! If you are making maps where events can launch themselves with the aid of bounce tiles, we recommend putting either slippery tiles or force move tiles to move those events out of the way in the scenario where the player is following behind. This is to prevent the player from landing on top of the event. --- <Bounce d Region: x> <Bounce d Regions: x, x, x> - Used for: Map Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these regions will become bounce tiles, causing the characters to jump forward a specific 'distance'. - Replace 'd' with a number from 1 to 9 representing the distance to jump.

Numbers above 10 will be ignored to prevent clipping bugs. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 7 representing the ID of the terrain tag you wish to use as a bounce tile marker. --- <Can Bounce> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event capable of being affected by bounce tiles and jump. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Bounce> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event unaffected by bounce tiles and not jump. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Bounce> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - If the party has an actor equipped a weapon or armor with this notetag, the player will become unaffected by bounce tiles and not jump. - If the party has a regular item with this notetag in their inventory, the player will become unaffected by bounce tiles and not jump. --- <Avoid Bounce> <Beware Bounce> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Causes the event to avoid stepping on bounce tiles when self moving. - The event can still step onto them when moved via event movement routes. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - The notetag and comment tag variants do the same thing. Which you choose to use is entirely up to personal preference. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Careless Bounce> <Ignore Bounce> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - The event can carelessly move onto bounce tiles when self moving. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - The notetag and comment tag variants do the same thing. Which you choose to use is entirely up to personal preference. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- Force Move Tile-Related Notetags Force move tiles cause affected characters on top of them to move in a specified direction continuously. This means that even if a character is stopped midway, transferred to the tile, or relocated to the force move tile, once the path is clear, the character will be sent automatically moving in the designated direction. --- <Force direction Region: x> <Force direction Regions: x, x, x> - Used for: Map Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these regions will become force move tiles, causing the characters on top of the go moving in the direction the tiles direct them to upon stepping on them. - Replace 'direction' with a string that is either 'down', 'left', 'right', or 'up' (without the quotes) to designate the direction the tile will automatically move the character. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 255 representing the ID of the region you wish to use as a force move tile marker. - If you use this notetag, it will override the default region settings found in the Plugin Parameters. --- <Force direction Terrain Tag: x> <Force direction Terrain Tags: x, x, x> - Used for: Tileset Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these regions will become force move tiles, causing the characters on top of the go moving in the direction the tiles direct them to upon stepping on them. - Replace 'direction' with a string that is either 'down', 'left', 'right', or 'up' (without the quotes) to designate the direction the tile will automatically move the character. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 7 representing the ID of the terrain tag you wish to use as a force move tile marker. --- <Can Force Move> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event capable of being affected by force move tiles. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Force Move> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event unaffected by force move tiles. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Force Move> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - If the party has an actor equipped a weapon or armor with this notetag, the player will become unaffected by force move tiles. - If the party has a regular item with this notetag in their inventory, the player will become unaffected by force move tiles. --- <Avoid Force Move> <Beware Force Move> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Causes the event to avoid stepping on force move tiles when self moving. - The event can still step onto them when moved via event movement routes. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - The notetag and comment tag variants do the same thing.

When this happens to a player, the party will take lava burn damage, and events will be erased. When the character steps off a lava tile and is still surviving, the otherwise continuously lava effect wears off. However, the damage remains for the events and the number of times they can survive further lava burns has been reduced. --- <Lava Region: x> <Lava Regions: x, x, x> - Used for: Map Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these regions will become lava tiles, causing the characters on top to continuously take damage regardless of whether or not they're moving on the lava tile. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 255 representing the ID of the region you wish to use as a lava tile marker. - If you use this notetag, it will override the default region settings found in the Plugin Parameters. --- <Lava Terrain Tag: x> <Lava Terrain Tags: x, x, x> - Used for: Tileset Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these terrain tags will become lava tiles, causing the characters on top to continuously take damage regardless of whether or not they're moving on the lava tile. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 7 representing the ID of the terrain tag you wish to use as a lava tile marker. --- <Can Lava Burn> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event capable of being affected by lava tiles and burn. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Lava Burn> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event unaffected by lava tiles and not burn. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Lava Burn> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - If the party has an actor equipped a weapon or armor with this notetag, the player will become unaffected by lava tiles and not burn. - If the party has a regular item with this notetag in their inventory, the player will become unaffected by lava tiles and not burn. --- <Lava Burn Max: x> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - If the event can be affected by lava tiles and burn, this determines the maximum amount of times they can burn before erasure. - Replace 'x' with a number representing the maximum number of times the event can burn before erasure. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Avoid Lava> <Beware Lava> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Causes the event to avoid stepping on lava tiles when self moving. - The event can still step onto them when moved via event movement routes. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - The notetag and comment tag variants do the same thing.

Players will have their whole party take fall damage and return to a previously safe location. Events will be erased as if an event command took care of them. Characters can jump over pitfalls and be unharmed. Jumping directly into a pitfall will trigger a lethal reaction. --- <Pitfall Region: x> <Pitfall Regions: x, x, x> - Used for: Map Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these regions will become pitfall tiles, causing the characters that walk over them to fall in. - If the player character falls in, the party takes damage. - If an event falls in, it is erased. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 255 representing the ID of the region you wish to use as a pitfall tile marker. - If you use this notetag, it will override the default region settings found in the Plugin Parameters. --- <Pitfall Terrain Tag: x> <Pitfall Terrain Tags: x, x, x> - Used for: Tileset Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these terrain tags will become pitfall tiles, causing the characters on top of the go sliding in the direction they're facing upon stepping on them. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 7 representing the ID of the terrain tag you wish to use as a pitfall tile marker. --- <Pitfall Transfer: mapID> <Pitfall Transfer: mapID, x, y> - Used for: Map Notetags - If the player falls into a pitfall tile on this specific map, the player will be transferred to a different map (after taking damage). - If the <Pitfall Transfer: mapID> variant is used, transfer the player to the new map, but keep the current X, Y coordinates. - If the <Pitfall Transfer: mapID, x, y> variant is used, transfer the player to specific X, Y coordinates, too. - The player's direction will be retained in both cases. - Replace 'mapID' with a number representing the ID of the map to transfer to. Use '0' to keep it to the current map. - Replace 'x' and 'y' with numbers representing the respective target X and Y coordinates on the new map. If these aren't used, then the player will retain the current X and Y coordinates. --- <Can Pitfall> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event capable of being affected by pitfall tiles and fall in. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Pitfall> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event unaffected by pitfall tiles and can't fall in.

Which you choose to use is entirely up to personal preference. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- Quicksand Tile-Related Notetags Quicksand tiles cause affected characters on top of them to slowly sink deeper with each step they take and visibly go deeper until they fully sink. When this happens to a player, the party will take sandsink damage and then return to a previously safe location. Events will be erased. When a character steps on a non-quicksand tile, the sandsink counter resets and the character fully resurfaces itself from the ground. --- <Quicksand Region: x> <Quicksand Regions: x, x, x> - Used for: Map Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these regions will become quicksand tiles, causing the characters to slowly sink deeper with each step. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 255 representing the ID of the region you wish to use as a quicksand tile marker. - If you use this notetag, it will override the default region settings found in the Plugin Parameters. --- <Quicksand Terrain Tag: x> <Quicksand Terrain Tags: x, x, x> - Used for: Tileset Notetags - Any map tiles marked with these terrain tags will become quicksand tiles, causing the characters to slowly sink deeper with each step. - Replace 'x' with a number from 1 to 7 representing the ID of the terrain tag you wish to use as a quicksand tile marker. --- <Can Sandsink> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event capable of being affected by quicksand tiles and sandsink. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Sandsink> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Makes the event unaffected by quicksand tiles and not sandsink. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - If this is placed in a notetag, the effect will be present across all event pages used. - If this is placed inside a page's comment, the effect will only occur if that event page is currently active. --- <Anti-Sandsink> - Used for: Item, Weapon, Armor Notetags - If the party has an actor equipped a weapon or armor with this notetag, the player will become unaffected by quicksand tiles and not sandsink. - If the party has a regular item with this notetag in their inventory, the player will become unaffected by quicksand tiles and not sandsink. --- <Avoid Quicksand> <Beware Quicksand> - Used for: Event Notetags and Event Page Comment Tags - Causes the event to avoid stepping on quicksand tiles when self moving. - The event can still step onto them when moved via event movement routes. - This will override the default settings found in the Plugin Parameters. - The notetag and comment tag variants do the same thing.

Allow?: - Changes the player character's ability to navigate on water tiles. --- Plugin Parameters Bounce Tile Settings Settings related to Bounce Tiles. Bounce tiles will cause affected characters that step over them to jump forward a specified amount of spaces based on their regions/terrain tags. This allows characters to scale past obstacles and/or other events! This jump effect has no rules other than it jumps forward that many spaces. The no rules bit means the jump tile is capable of launching characters into walls and/or on top of other events, so place your bounce tiles carefully! We are not responsible for any weird landing locations! If you are making maps where events can launch themselves with the aid of bounce tiles, we recommend putting either slippery tiles or force move tiles to move those events out of the way in the scenario where the player is following behind. This is to prevent the player from landing on top of the event. --- General Default Region(s): Bounce 1-9 Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Bounce 1-9 Region: x> notetag. Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default? --- Sound Effects Effect: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. --- Force Move Tile Settings Settings related to Force Move Tiles. Force move tiles cause affected characters on top of them to move in a specified direction continuously. This means that even if a character is stopped midway, transferred to the tile, or relocated to the force move tile, once the path is clear, the character will be sent automatically moving in the designated direction. --- General Default Region(s): Down Region(s): Left Region(s): Right Region(s): Up Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Force direction Region: x> notetag. Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default? Tile Move Speed: - Forces this move speed when on this tile type. - Use 0 to use the character's current move speed. Tile Sprite Pattern: - Forces this sprite pattern when on this tile type. - Use -1 to allow characters to freely animate. --- Sound Effects Footsteps: Enabled?: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. - Requires VisuMZ_2_MovementEffects. --- Lava Tile Settings Settings related to Lava Tiles. Lava tiles cause affected characters on top of them to continuously burn over time regardless of whether or not they're moving on the lava tile. When this happens to a player, the party will take lava burn damage, and events will be erased. When the character steps off a lava tile and is still surviving, the otherwise continuously lava effect wears off. However, the damage remains for the events and the number of times they can survive further lava burns has been reduced. --- General Default Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Lava Region: x> notetag. Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default? Event Lava Burn Max: - Default number of times an event can suffer lava burns before being erased. Lava Burn Frame Delay: - Frames to delay lava burn iterations from one another. - Lower: less delay. - Higher: larger delay. --- Damage Calculation Allow Death?: - Can actors die from the damage dealt by this tile? Rate Damage: - What percentile of the actor's MaxHP is dealt as damage? Flat Damage: - What flat amount of damage is dealt to the actor? --- Animation Animation ID: - Play this animation when the effect activates. - Requires VisuMZ_0_CoreEngine. Mirror Animation: - Mirror the effect animation? - Requires VisuMZ_0_CoreEngine. Mute Animation: - Mute the effect animation? - Requires VisuMZ_0_CoreEngine. --- Sound Effects Footsteps: Enabled?: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. - Requires VisuMZ_2_MovementEffects. Damage: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. --- Pitfall Tile Settings Settings related to Pitfall Tiles. Pitfalls (or bottomless pits) are tiles that when an affected character walks over it, the character will fall to its doom. Players will have their whole party take fall damage and return to a previously safe location. Events will be erased as if an event command took care of them. Characters can jump over pitfalls and be unharmed. Jumping directly into a pitfall will trigger a lethal reaction. --- General Default Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Pitfall Region: x> notetag. Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default? Fall Duration: - How many frames will the falling animation take? --- Damage Calculation Allow Death?: - Can actors die from the damage dealt by this tile?

Flat Damage: - What flat amount of damage is dealt to the actor? --- Sound Effects Fall: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. Damage: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. --- Quicksand Tile Settings Settings related to Quicksand Tiles. Quicksand tiles cause affected characters on top of them to slowly sink deeper with each step they take and visibly go deeper until they fully sink. When this happens to a player, the party will take sandsink damage and then return to a previously safe location. Events will be erased. When a character steps on a non-quicksand tile, the sandsink counter resets and the character fully resurfaces itself from the ground. --- General Default Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Quicksand Region: x> notetag. Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default?

Rate Damage: - What percentile of the actor's MaxHP is dealt as damage? Flat Damage: - What flat amount of damage is dealt to the actor? --- Sound Effects Footsteps: Enabled?: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. - Requires VisuMZ_2_MovementEffects. Damage: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. --- Shock Tile Settings Settings related to Shock Tiles. When characters that are affected by shock tiles and step over them, the tile will shock and zap them. The player will have the whole party take shock damage and then return to a previously safe location. Events will be erased immediately. --- General Default Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Shock Region: x> notetag.

Mute Animation: - Mute the effect animation? - Requires VisuMZ_0_CoreEngine. --- Sound Effects Damage: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. --- Slippery Tile Settings Settings related to Slippery Tiles. Slippery tiles cause affected characters on top of them to slide forward until they hit a wall or another object. Once they stop, they can turn and move a different direction. If this new direction is still on the slippery tile, the character will continue sliding that direction, too. --- General Default Region(s): - Which region(s) will be used to mark this tile type? - Ignore if map has <Slippery Region: x> notetag. Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default? Tile Move Speed: - Forces this move speed when on this tile type. - Use 0 to use the character's current move speed. Tile Sprite Pattern: - Forces this sprite pattern when on this tile type. - Use -1 to allow characters to freely animate. --- Sound Effects Footsteps: Enabled?: Filename: Volume: Pitch: Pan: - Properties of the sound effect played. - Requires VisuMZ_2_MovementEffects. --- Water Tile Settings Settings related to Water Tiles. Water tiles are anything that a boat or ship can pass over and do not need to be marked by regions or terrain tags. Water tiles can cause affected characters to drown in them when walking over them. Players will have their whole party take drowning damage and then return to a previously safe location. Events will be erased. If the player is given the ability to swim, the player can traverse water tiles without any drowning problems. --- General Event Defaults: Default Affected: - Are events affected by this tile by default? Default Avoid: - Will events avoid stepping on this tile by default? Drowning Duration: - How many frames will the drowning animation take? Player Can Drown?: - Allow the player to be able to step into water tiles without the ability to swim and causing player to drown?

Fix made by Irina. Version 1.01: December 15, 2022 Bug Fixes! Fixed a bug where you cannot respawn on X = 0 or Y = 0. Documentation Update! Added new section: "Warning! RPG Maker MZ Version 1.5.0+ Water-Tile Bug!" It seems like there's a new bug that occurs if you create a tileset from scratch in RPG Maker MZ version 1.5.0+ and version 1.6.0+! What this bug does is it causes many tiles to become water tiles without intending to. You can find this out by turning off all the plugins in your project, putting a Ship or Boat on what are normally ground tiles, and then seeing the Ship or Boat traverse through it. Naturally, this causes problems with the Unique Tile Effects plugin as the water tiles allow for swimming and drowning. There are two ways to fix this. We cannot fix it through code in this plugin as it's a problem that involves the tileset json data there are ways to work around it so that you can get the proper water-flags to go where they need to be at. 1. Copy a working un-bugged tileset onto the currently bugged one and reapply the tile features like passability, terrain tags, etc. This will make sure the water-passability tiles get copied over correctly. 2. If you're on RPG Maker MZ version 1.5.0 or above, select a working un-bugged tileset (usually a pre-existing tileset when a new project is made), click the "Copy Page" button, go to the bugged tileset and press "Paste Page". You'll have to reapply any different properties like passabilities and terrain tags, but the water tile flags should now be working properly. Version 1.00 Official Release Date: January 6, 2023 Finished Plugin! See Also Inspiration Behind Custom Construct Volume 3 Slippery Tiles (YEP) End of File
