Step Counter

Hello All,

Is there a simple way to show the number of steps walked in a textbox or the status menu?

Ugly but simple Eventing Solution:

For Textbox:
Control Variable1 = Game Data - Other - Steps
Show Textbox: You made \V[1] Steps.

For Status Menu:
Database - Actors - The 2 Lines for description can be utilised for this.
Insert this: Steps: \V[1]
But you would need to manualy update the Variable everytime you Open the Menu.
On first Map, disable Menu Access, than activate a Parallel Common Event which checks if the Menu Button was pressed. If pressed, than do:
Control Variable1 = Game Data - Other - Steps
Open Menu
Loop
Condition if Menu Button still pressed
if yes: do nothing and Wait 1 Frame
else: Break Loop
repeat above (This is so the Menu doesnt reopen when you try to close it)

Nice Solution:

The Status Menu or Main Menu would involve Coding a smal "Script" for that.
More Scripters are active on the official Website: www.rpgmakerweb.com
In case noone responds here.

msgbox_p("Steps Walked:", $game_party.steps)

Not exactly what I wanted, but it does the job.

Yeah, you need to find a better solution............... That's like saying you want a tuna sandwich and then put some cat food between 2 crackers...........
