#    Animated Parallax [VXA]
#    Version: 1.0
#    Author: modern algebra (rmrk.net)
#    Date: December 20, 2011
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Description:
#
#    This script allows you to set an animated parallax background by having
#   multiple frames and switching between them at a user-defined speed. By
#   default, this script only supports .png, .jpg, and .bmp file formats for
#   the animated parallax panels (as they are the only ones I know RMVX Ace
#   supports).
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Instructions:
#
#     The script operates by having multiple parallax backgrounds and switching
#    between them at a speed set by you, unique for each map
#
#     Thus, if you want to use an animated parallax, you need to do a few things:
#      (a) Make or find the parallax backgrounds you want to use and import
#        them into your game. Then, label them all the same with the one
#        distinction that at the end of each should have a _1, _2, etc...
#          Example Naming:
#            BlueSky_1, BlueSky_2, BlueSky_3, etc...
#      (b) Set the parallax background to any given map that you want the
#        animated parallaxes for. Be sure to set it to the first one you want
#        in succession, so BlueSky_1, not BlueSky_2 or _3. If you do set it to
#        BlueSky_2, then it will only animate between images _2 and _3.
#      (c) Scroll down to the EDITABLE REGION at line 83 and follow the
#        instructions for setting the animation speed
#``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
#     If you need to change the speed at which parallax panels cycle (for
#    instance, if you have also changed the parallax that is displaying), you
#    can do so by using the following code in a Script call:
#
#      change_parallax_animation_speed(x)
#        x: the number of frames before cycling to the next panel. There are 60
#          frames in one second.
#
#    Note: there cannot be a space between speed and (.
#      change_parallax_animation_speed(x)     <- Correct
#      change_parallax_animation_speed (x)    <- Incorrect
#
#    You can also change it to an array of times, such that you can make it so
#   some frames remain up for longer than others. To do so, just place all of
#   the speeds for each panel in order, separated by commas. Ie.
#
#      change_parallax_animation_speed(x1, x2, ..., xn)
#
#    The same rule as at line 41 applies.
#
#    EXAMPLES:
#
#      change_parallax_animation_speed(30)
#        Each parallax panel will be up for half a second before switching.
#
#      change_parallax_animation_speed(15, 30, 60, 45)
#        The first parallax panel will be up for one quarter of a second before
#       switching to the second panel; the second panel will be up for half a
#       second before switching to the third panel; the third panel will be up
#       for one second before switching to the fourth panel; the fourth panel
#       will be up for three quarters of a second before switching back to the
#       first panel. Repeat.

  #  MAAP_PARALLAX_ANIMATION_FRAMES - this constant allows you to set the
  # speed at which the parallax switches to the next graphic in the animation
  # series by individual maps. So if you want it to be every 20 frames in one
  # map but every 35 in another map, this is where you do it. All you need to
  # do is type in the following code:
  #
  #      map_id => frames,
  #
  # where map_id is the ID of the Map you want to set it for and frames is
  # either (a) an integer for how many frames you want to show each panel
  # before switching to the next; or (b) an array of integers where each entry
  # of the array is the number of frames to keep the corresponding frame up
  # before switching to the next. This allows you to vary the time each of the
  # frames is left on before switching. There are 60 frames in a second.
  #
  #    EXAMPLES:
  #      1 => 35,    Map 1 will cycle through parallax panels every 35 frames
  #      2 => 40,    Map 2 will cycle through parallax panels every 40 frames
  #      8 => [20, 5, 15],    Map 8 will keep the first panel of the animated
  #                  parallax on for 20 frames before switching to the second
  #                  panel which will be on for 5 frames before switching to
  #                  the third panel which is on 15 frames before switching
  #                  back to the first panel. Repeat.
  #
  #  Note that the comma is necessary! For any maps where you use animated
  # parallaxes but do not include the map ID in this hash, then it will default
  # to the value set below at: MAAP_PARALLAX_ANIMATION_FRAMES.default.
    1 => 20,
    8 => 40,
  } # <- Don't touch
  #  Changing the below value allows you to change the default speed of frame
  # animation. Ie. the speed of frame animation in a map in which you have not
  # directly set the speed via the above hash configuration.
  MAAP_PARALLAX_ANIMATION_FRAMES.default = 30
  #  Depending on the size of the parallaxes and how many panels you use in a
  # map, there can be some lag when you load new panels. The following option
  # allows you to decide whether all the parallax frames are loaded at once
  # when the map is first entered or individually the first time each panel
  # shows up. Generally, if your panels are very large (1MB+) then you should
  # set it to true; if smaller files, then you should set it to false.
  MAAP_PRELOAD_PARALLAXES = true
