I wrote a bit about Asteracea, my Rust-native mixed-paradigm front-end framework: https://blog.schichler.dev/posts/Asteracea/

I just finished and published this: https://tamschi.itch.io/ce-plugin-commands-and-scoped-variables

This basically lets you create custom functions in RPG Maker MV, and also adds coroutine-scoped execution contexts that you can scope what are usually global variables (Variables, Switches, JS `window` properties) in.

This plugin is free (with tips greatly appreciated if you can), so I'll post it without CWs: https://tamschi.itch.io/command-error-backtrace

#rpgmaker #rpgmmv #gamedev

It adds non-JS (i.e. Command-based) stack traces to any Error that occurs in code created in the RPG Maker MV editor, so you can see *exactly* where the problem occurred from the error screen alone.
It also makes errors easy to copy for you/the player, so you can collect more accurate bug reports with less friction.

One version. I had to add an ugly textarea fallback 😢

Whoops, the lack of preview turned that into vagueposting. They're utilities for RPG Maker MV.

I'd make them MZ-compatible too (where they aren't already; the API is very similar), but I can't afford the latter for testing.

I have two more upcoming plugins and one more slightly larger QA tool in the works right now, one of which will be available free of charge (since while very helpful, it's really just a small quality of life fix for the engine). I should be able to make the plugins available this upcoming weekend, if everything goes well.

The reason I originally got into programming was to make games, but I think I'm better at making generic (game) development tools rather than game content.

Here's one that I wrote recently on a whim, to test an idea I had regarding game script reactivity: https://tamschi.itch.io/equipment-change-hook

I'm quite proud of it in terms of making it a robust tool. I really need to broadcast a bit more that it exists though, since I'm barely getting pageviews 😅
