Code:
* 1. You should only preload resources that are actually used or the game can
* take an excessively and unnecessarily long time to start
* 2. You might have to test the values of preloadAudioMSInterval and
* preloadImageMSInterval to have the optimal preload time for your project
* 3. Setting preloadAudioMSInterval/preloadImageMSInterval as 0 might block
* the UI thread for too long and thus crashing/freezing the game in phones
* 4. You should consider not preloading resources that are only rarely used
* in case the preloading times are still too long
* 5. Some plugins might use HTML5Audio instead of WebAudio, and preloading
* audios using HTML5Audio is meaningless HTML5Audio is a static class
* having nothing to preload
* 6. You should compress the resources to be preoloaded for phones or the
* extra memory consumption from preloading them can quickly crash/free the
* game there
* 7. No identical resource should be duplicated in the same parameter or
* across parameters(this plugin won't explicitly skip those duplicates as
* simplifying the codes this way can actually reduce preload time)
* 8. If you want to keep the current parameter values in the plugin manager
* upon using a newer version, you can do the following:
* - Renames the newer version to be that of the older version
* - Edits the value of DoubleX_RMMV.Preloaded_Resources_File to be the
* filename of the older version, which must be done via opening this
* plugin js file directly
* 9. (Advanced)By default, the images are cached upon first used, and the
* cache is a Least Recently Used(LRU) cache. This plugin reserves all
* preloaded images so the LRU will never release them unless they're
* explicitly told to be released via a script callScript Call Info
Code:
* # Image manipulations
* 1. ImageManager.releasePreloadedFolderImg(param, filename, hue)
* - Releases the image with the filename filename and hue hue
* specified in parameter param
* - This can be useful when an image becomes rarely used and/or the
* preloaded images are consuming too much memory
* - Please note that using this script call doesn't always remove the
* image from the LRU cache instantly as it's still up to the LRU
* cache to determine when to remove that image now that it can be
* removed due to no longer being reserved
* - param and filename are supposed to be String
* - hue is supposed to be an integer from 0 to 360 inclusive
* - The script call's supposed to be Idempotent
* 2. ImageManager.releasePreloadedMiscImg(path, hue, smooth)
* - Releases the image with the path path, hue hue and smooth smooth
* - This can be useful when an image becomes rarely used and/or the
* preloaded images are consuming too much memory
* - Please note that using this script call doesn't always remove the
* image from the LRU cache instantly as it's still up to the LRU
* cache to determine when to remove that image now that it can be
* removed due to no longer being reserved
* - path is supposed to be a String
* - hue is supposed to be an integer from 0 to 360 inclusive
* - smooth is supposed to be a Boolean
* - The script call's supposed to be Idempotent
* # Audio manipulations
* 1. AudioManager.invalidateCachedWebAudio(folder, name)
* - Releases the audio with folder folder and filename name from the
* audio cache
* - This only works for non static SE audio loaded as WebAudio
* - folder is supposed to be a String
* - name is supposed to be a String
* - The script call's supposed to be IdempotentPrerequisites

v1.00b(GMT 0300 27-Mar-2020):
1. You no longer have to edit the value of DoubleX_RMMZ.Preloaded_Resources_File when changing the plugin file name
2. Fixed the crashes when preloading animations, images, etc, wthout hues(such cases will be understood as having the default hue 0 only)
