Modify Location Window

[Marcel_Makkink]

It's probaly a very easy thing to do but I can't seem to figure it out. Could anyone modify this location window so that if a switch is on it will be visible else it will not. Thanks in advance

class Window_Location < Window_Base
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Object Initialization
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def initialize
super(340, 430, 300, 50)
self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
self.back_opacity = 160
refresh
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ? ??????
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def refresh
self.contents.clear
self.contents.font.color = normal_color
$data_map_infos = load_data("Data/MapInfos.rxdata")
self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 260, 17, $data_map_infos[$game_map.map_id].name)
end
end

add this method before your script's last end

def update
  self.visible = $game_switches[[COLOR=Red]switch_id[/COLOR]] == true
  super
end

and replace the red switch_id by your switch

It works, however, I would like to make the opacity increase when it comes up, and the opacity decrease when it goes away. Any help please?

replace

self.back_opacity = 160

for

self.opacity = 0
self.contents_opacity = 0

and replace the script I posted for this one

def update
  self.visible = $game_switches[switch_id] == true
  if self.visible != @last_visible
    if self.visible
      self.opacity += [COLOR=Red]20[/COLOR] if self.opacity < 160
      @last_visible = true if self.opacity >= 160
    else
      self.opacity -= [COLOR=Red]20[/COLOR] if self.opacity > 0
      @last_visible = true if self.opacity == 0
    end
    self.contents_opacity = self.opacity
  end
  super
end

You can play with the numbers in red to change the speed.
Ive not tested it, but it shall work.
