Hello! I'm glad you enjoy the plugin! I'm not too sure what you mean exactly for a loading screen. Do you mean a loading screen/scene that appears before the game starts? What kind of loading screen are you thinking? Something animated with a video or something more simple? It's definitely something that's possible to do but there are different kinds of loading screens. It's something I've never considered before for this plugin. It seems like something that could be evented even, but if I had more information on what you were looking for I could whip up an extension that could act as a 'faked' loading screen if that's what you need but I'd need to know what kind of loading screen you're looking for.
Thank you for your support!
Ah, that's great to hear!
The loading screen I'm talking about is for when the player clicks start new game or load, so I have an animated video that I wanted to use for a fake loading screen, and it would be nice if it had a kind of variable that each time generated a different condition that led to a result of, for example, 30-300 frames, so it would look natural, you know?
ps: since the game already loads very quickly, I could only imagine creating a fake loading system.
I also thought that it could be nice for changing maps, but that would already become something boring for those who play, because changing maps happens a lot, so just ignore that last part kk (I just wanted to tell you, because I thought your work on the other plugins was also very cool!)
Thanks for the great work!
And if you can, it would also be nice to add a variable to, for example, generate a number from 1-5, and for each one select a drawing. Then a different image will appear each time.
This is just an additional idea that I personally think is very cool, but take a look at the loading screen first, and if you ever decide to add it, it would be nice.
a drawing like an image to show over the video? It could a variety of things like set up a list of videos and have it select a random one if you wanted different loading screens that would be easy If you wanted the option of picking a random loading screen video to play from a list that would be easy to add in at this point.
As far as drawing an image that's really easy to implement as well but would it just be static? should it fade in and out? should it be an animated video like a video stack where your gif could be in video format and just stack it on top of the other video? doing something like stacking a video on top of another video would make it possible to have different loading bars while keeping one video in the background the same. there's literally tons of possibilities here lol
I'm actually getting kind of close to finishing the basic loading screen functionality already, though I haven't tested anything at all yet but It's pretty straightforward to implement.
Yeah that's not hard for me to do. It's basically just copy pasting and editing some code which already exists in my plugin and hooking it in using a similar method as the pre-title and idle videos. So making a list of videos and picking a random one is something the plugin already does, I'd just need to repurpose some code to do things slightly different to accomplish this for a loading screen.
