I downloaded the v1.5 plugin. You are correct, the fade visibility didn't quite work out. In fact, it kind of did the opposite...it covered the region the player is in and revealed everything else. However, when I turn the fade off everything works perfectly! I really appreciate the help and the updates!
If you have ever played Dragon Quest 3 for the SNES/iOS/android, the cave/dungeon exploration is what I am trying to emulate. Your plugin does the trick!
