Land Vehicle 1.07 [Update: 09/29/2021]

[Coolie 148]

Land Vehicle v1.07

• By: William Couillard (Coolie)
• Last Update: September 29th, 2021

This script allows you to change the "Boat" vehicle into a land vehicle capable of traveling on the same terrain that the player is able to. You can opt to keep random encounters on or off (you can change this for the other vehicles, also), as well as choose whether or not touch events (including teleports) or action button events (pressing a button to start an event) should still process while piloting the vehicle. You can also set the movement speed of the vehicle.

Screenshot(s)


Features

• Changes the "boat" vehicle to be changed to travel on land
• Customizable land vehicle speed
• Allow or disallow touch events from processing while driving the land vehicle
• Allow or disallow action button events from processing while driving the land vehicle
• Allow or disallow enemy encounters from processing while driving the land vehicle, ship, and/or airship
• Land Vehicle will only animate while moving
• Ship and Airship still animate while idle

In using this script would still be possible to have a boat? Like if I want a chocobo and then at a later time still use the boat to cross an ocean?

[Coolie 148]

Yes, this script does not change how the Ship or Airship vehicles function. It only changes the Boat vehicle.

It alters the mechanics of the default Boat to move on land only.

@rasphere: just want to help you clear things up.

basically ace have 3 vehicle : boat, ship, and airship

this script change boat to land vehicle ONLY.

if you want to travel in water. you still have ship for that.

the reason why william c create this script maybe because he think boat and ship almost have the same function. so why need 2 water vehicle? why not convert one to land vehicle?

[Coolie 148]

^ Exactly, and I needed a Land Vehicle for my project, as shown in the screen shot.

Script 'Land Vehicles' line 66: SyntaxError occured.

 

unexpected ';', expecting ')'

check_passage(x, y, (1 << (d / 2 - 1)) & 0x0f)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

any suggestions?

[DP3 188]

Replace the & with an &

 

it's some weird formatting where the site replaces the symbol, not the scripters fault

[Coolie 148]

Hmm... perhaps I should put these on Pastebin and link from here from now on.

This is great, thanks a lot for the script. This is something I needed for my game as well, so kudos!

[amerk 1,122]

It boggle the mind how EB has not caught on as of yet that land travel is just as important as all other forms... especially when they include horses in their list of vehicles!

 

I still think boat is necessary for rivers to make games similar to Final Fantasy, but not so much as having land vehicles.

 

Thanks for this.

can you make a demo for this?

I always got the line 95 error,I don't know what to put for x and y

[EternalShadow 28]

I'd use this, but Zen 2 has no world map! Nicely done.

Can you tell me the exact error message?

I have an idea that may be helpful if you can get it to work. Instead of the land vehicle being limited to the same terrain as the player, it would be cool if it could travel terrain that the player cannot. For example, in order for a player to travel through a forest he must enter a map of the woods and physically find a way through, but the chocobo or another land vehicle allows them to run through the forest on the world map with needing to physically go into the forest. Does that make sense?

[Coolie 148]

It can already do that. It turns touch events into "Below Hero" events that do not activate while riding it. You can set "Same Level as Hero" events to create tiles that the vehicle cannot ride through.

I am getting this error. I am using " Galv's Vehicle On Off Locations" as well so I'm not sure if the two are not compatible or it's something else.

That's probably exactly what it is. When used alone, there is zero chance of this script causing any errors.

[Galv 1,388]

Had a quick look. William overwrote a default method for the boat that my script uses.

 

Add this below both scripts. This should make them compatible:

 

class Game_Player < Game_Character
 def map_passable?(x, y, d)
   case @vehicle_type
   when :boat
     $game_map.boat_passable?(x, y, d)
   when :ship
     $game_map.ship_passable?(x, y, d)
   when :airship
     true
   else
     super
   end
 end
end

Added a pastebin link to the original post for anyone else who may need this. Thanks Galv.

I just took the "Galv's Vehicle On Off Locations"script out and I am still getting the same error.
