What does it do?

Allows regions to sink players and events in. If player sinks in completely - game over screen or common event can be executed.

 

Screenshots:

 

How to use?

Set up tags Map Note.

Full setup looks like this:

<quicksand: [iD]>

SinkSpeed: [FLOAT]

SlowDown: [FLOAT]

MaxSlowDown: [FLOAT]

MaxSink: [iNT]

SinkReached: [Common Event ID/0/-1]

Dash: [true/false]

CutOff: [true/false]

</quicksand>

 

What each of those do:

<quicksand: [iD]> - start of region data, [iD] is for which region will it apply

</quicksand> - end of region data

SinkSpeed: [FLOAT] - How fast characters sink in

SlowDown: [FLOAT] - How slower characters move per sink in

MaxSlowDown: [FLOAT] - Slowest characters can move E.g. 0.5

MaxSink: [iNT] - Lowest possible sinking point (E.g. 30)

SinkReached: [Common Event ID/0/-1] - What happens after player sinks in. 0 - nothing, -1 - Game Over, >0 calls Common Event of that ID.

Dash: [true/false] - Is player allowed to Dash while in this region

CutOff: [true/false] - Cut off part of sprite depending on sink in?

 

Is it possible to set multiple regions on same map? Yes.

 

Settings I used for the screenshot:

<quicksand: 5>

SinkSpeed: 0.1

SlowDown: 0.05

MaxSlowDown: 0.2

MaxSink: 10

SinkReached: 0

Dash: false

CutOff: true

</quicksand>

 

Can I make events unsinkable? Yes.

Just add <Unsinkable> to Event's note field.

This is an awesome script. I found a problem with the way the character looks while sinking though:
