Fallout 4 Style Looting UI for RPG Maker MZ

Version 1.0 | By ED5

Tired of pausing the game flow every time your player opens a chest? Bring modern, fast-paced looting to your RPG Maker MZ project with this Fallout 4-inspired looting system.

Instead of locking the player into a message box sequence, this plugin displays a sleek, floating UI window next to the container. Players can inspect items by hovering and grab them instantly without stopping the action.

✨ Key Features

• Quick Looting Interface: View contents just by walking close or hovering your mouse. No more button mashing through "You found a Potion!" text boxes.
• Two Display Modes:
  • List Mode: Classic scrolling list with names and amounts.
  • Grid Mode: Compact icon-only grid for visual looting.
• Detailed Info Tooltip:
  • Shows item descriptions, stats (Atk/Def), and icons.
  • Auto-Scrolling Text: Long descriptions automatically marquee scroll so nothing gets cut off.
  • Smart positioning prevents the window from going off-screen.
• Fully Customizable UI:
  • Set custom background images for both the Loot List and the Info Tooltip.
  • Adjust fonts and button skins.
• Input Versatility: Works seamlessly with both Mouse/Touch and Keyboard/Gamepad (Hold OK to focus).
• Random Loot Support: Built-in hooks for specific random loot generation logic (works best with ED5_RandomLoot but stand-alone friendly).

📚 Documentation & Setup

1. Installation

1. Download ED5_ToolTipChests.js.
2. Place it in your project's js/plugins/ folder.
3. Open the Plugin Manager and enable it.

2. Plugin Parameters

Configure the look and feel directly in the Plugin Manager:

• Display Mode: Switch between 'List' or 'Grid'.
• Max Distance: How many tiles away a player can be to loot (Default: 2).
• Background Images: Select your custom window backgrounds from img/system/.

3. Event Setup (The Fun Part)

To make a container, simply add Comments to your Event page. The plugin reads these comments to populate the chest.

Fixed Loot

Use the syntax <Loot: type, id, amount>

<Loot: item, 1, 5>      // Gives 5x Potion (Item ID 1)
<Loot: weapon, 10, 1>   // Gives 1x Sword (Weapon ID 10)
<Loot: armor, 2, 1>     // Gives 1x Shield (Armor ID 2)
<Loot: gold, 0, 100>    // Gives 100 Gold

Random Loot (Advanced)

If you have the compatible Random Loot system installed, you can use:

<RandomLoot: all>          // Generates 1 completely random item
<RandomLootGroup: chest_1> // Generates items from a specific group
<RandomLootCount: 3>       // Generates 3 items instead of 1
