Quick InfoVersion: Alpha
Made for RPG Maker MZ 1.9.0
Quick Start GuideThe basic setup and usage of this plugin follows the below steps:
1. In the plugin parameters, set up your cheat code data by clicking on the Cheat Codes parameter under Main Config. Make sure your cheat codes have a unique id, which should not contain symbols or spaces. IDs do not have to be numbers, they just have to be unique.
2. Call the scene using plugin command "Call Scene" (or use the JS below to add the cheat code scene to the menu using a plugin that can add menu commands).
Problems? Check the below FAQ for common errors and how to fix them:
Cheat code is stuck locked / hidden / mystery?
To unlock a cheat code, either make it start unlocked in the cheat code setup or use the plugin command "Unlock Cheat Code" and type in the id you assigned to the cheat code. Note that IDs are case sensitive, "BIGHEAD" is different than "bighead" when typing a cheat code id in.
Cheat Code not turning on even when it is unlocked?
Make sure your cheat code has its Switch parameter set up.
Cheat Code turning on/off randomly?
Cheat codes work by turning on or off normal game switches (the Switch parameter in cheat code setup). You can also turn these on/off through your event commands, so if it is getting turned on or off randomly check that your event commands are not set to turn that switch on or off.
JavaScriptIf you want to add access to the cheat code to the main menu or somewhere else only available through JS, you can call the scene using the following JS script:
SceneManager.push(CGMZ_Scene_CheatCodes);
