Hey Eli, I wanted to ask is there an option to run common event only when option window is closing? Not every single menu, just the windows where options are.
By default, to get in and out, of the Options Menu, you need enter on the default Menu Scene. And, on the default Menu Scene, there is no way play a common event, only on the scene map. So what exactly are you doing to want the common event to be played only when leaving the Options Menu?
Yes, I know that common events can be played only on maps, but that's fine. I have a changable variable in options where player can set any number, and I want to invoke that common event after option window closes to push a script code which change the time speed depending on that variable (time system is a different plugin). And I don't wanted to play it every time any other menu closes.
Hmm, I still do not understand. You said that you know that common events can only be played on maps, but you still want to invoke that common event after the option window closes?
When the option window closes, the game returns to the Scene Menu, not Scene Map. Therefore, there is no way to play a common event there.
I think, what can help you, is put a conditional branch on that common event, to check whatever you want to check and then, control what the common event will do.
If you want to use that variable, you can try keep track of his value before enters in the menu. After you return to the scene map, you can compare the old value with the current value of the variable, if it was changed, then you run your script call.
The thing is, you need to find a way to make the common event understands if the player opened the Scene Options or not, so you can do your thing on the common event based on that.
You are right, thanks for the feedback! It seems I forgot to add the right file here on itch io. I uploaded it now, it is still version 5.1.0, but now it should work properly.
Heyo, the idea of the script is perfect but unfortunately it doesn't work on MV.
My CommonEventId is e.g. 28 and displays a Textbox when executed. I set the value in the plugin parameters and nothing happens.
I don't know if it's relevant but when pressing F8 ingame and opening the script line 172 shows the following error: "Uncaugt reference error. eli is not defined"
Would love a working version, thanks!!
EDIT: I found out that you need the "Eli's Book" plugin in order for this one to work. I'll leave this comment for future people struggling.

Um.... You're right o_o I'm sorry, I don't know why it seemed to me that when you close the options, the menu also closes.
I think your idea is very clever, I'll try to do this like this! Thank you so much for your help. You're the best!
Have fun! :)
Hello! I'm trying to use this plugin but I've encountered a problem.
Everything works perfectly, except, while the plugin is active, using an item on the party makes the menu close by itself.
Is there a way to prevent this?
I'm using MZ.

Thank you for your amazing work!
Ei man, tem algum que ativa evento comum antes do menu?
Opa!
Não, tenho não. Acho que o GALV tem!
