Text Scroll Script R3-Fixed - Created by dubealex

I can't remember how to use it and it doesn't have any notes. this is what I get for taking out sections from my game to redo them a year later >_<

I am not sure about dubes, but I just worked this up real quick:

class Scene_TextScroll
  def initialize(filename, scroll_speed = 4, transition_frames = 40)
    @filename = filename
    @scroll_speed = scroll_speed
    @transtion_frames = transition_frames
    @last_scene = $scene.class
  end
  def main
    @textscroll_window = Window_TextScroll.new(@filename)
    Graphics.transition(@transtion_frames)
    loop do
      Graphics.update
      Input.update
      @textscroll_window.y -= @scroll_speed
      if @textscroll_window.y == 0 - @textscroll_window.height
        break
      end
    end
    Graphics.freeze
    @textscroll_window.dispose
    $scene = @last_scene.new
  end
end

class Window_TextScroll < Window_Base
  def initialize(filename)
    file = "TextScroll/#{filename}"
    lines = IO.readlines(file)
    super(0, 480, 640, lines.size * 24 + 32)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    for i in 0...lines.size
      self.contents.draw_text(0, i * 24, 640, 24, lines[i], 1)
    end
  end
end

Make a folder in you project folder named TextScroll. Put text files in it with whatever names, and just type you text there.

Then, just call it with:

$scene = Scene_TextScroll.new(filename, scroll_speed, transition_frames)

Theres defaults on the scroll speed and transition frames, so you don't have to send those arguments if you don't want to.

I didn't put any effort into it, but if you want to change anything go for it. If you need help just ask.

I am sure Dube's probably works just like this to a degree.
