Parameters to Create/Adapt from PSDK Systems in Studio

Creating an event manager in Studio helps reduce dependency on PSDK code for most existing systems. Currently, you have to follow the code documentation or search to understand how to set certain systems related to events, especially when dealing with hardcoded constants or data.

This list proposes which event-related systems to prioritize for initial implementation, with the rest to be added in later updates.

• Display a shadow under the event (§ in the event name)

  • Display a realistic shadow (currently a global parameter)

• Make the event invisible (invisible_ in the event name)

• The event is an invisible object (OBJ_INVISIBLE in the event name)

• Set the event’s default movement (move route)

• Force the appearance of the first event page ($ in the event name)

• Do not generate a sprite for this event ([sprite=off] in the event name)

• Force Surf mode (surf_ in the event name)

• Disable particles ([particle=off] in the event name)

• Modify the event sprite’s offset ([offset_x=N] or [offset_y=N] in the event name)

• Disable ice sliding ([noslide=on] in the event name)

• Disable reflection on transparent surfaces ([reflection=on] in the event name)
