Introduction
This plugin allows for modifying how many steps a player takes until an encounter occurs through the use of Region IDs. The editor by default has little ability to modify how many steps you can take until an encounter occurs. By default the rate is doubled when the player is in a Bush Flagged tile and halved whenever the player is on a Ship or a party member has the Encounter Half special trait.
This plugin allows you to disable these default features of RPG Maker as well.
Features
- Up to 10 configurable Region IDs
- Ability to add steps or take away steps in chunk amounts to change how safe or how dangerous an area is.
- Ability to modify how fast or how long it takes for an encounter to happen.
- Ability to choose which default features are available for encounter rate changes.
Screenshots
Here is a video of the plugin in action. I've attached some screenshots on how to use the plugin below.

How to Use
Download the script from the attachment or from the download link at the top and place it in your plugins/js folder. Make sure that it is named resiVariedEncounterRate.js or it's likely it won't work.
In the Plugin Parameters you set which Region IDs you want to use and whether or not steps are added/taken away when a player first steps onto that Region ID. You may also change the multiplier from a minimum value of 0.10 to any value over 1.00.
Here is a screenshot of the parameters in action and explaining what you saw in the video (if you watched it)
- Grass is default functionality with no modifiers or multipliers outside of pre-existing
- When the player first enters Region ID 22,
15 Steps are added to the amount required, meaning the player is essentially in a safe zone. The amount of steps until an encounter occurs increases drastically as well. The Multiplier is set to 0.20 meaning it will take a while to get to an encounter.
- When the player steps onto the Region ID 2 for the first time,
15 steps are taken away, making it very likely the player will immediately encounter a mob. If not, the Multiplier goes to 2.00, meaning 2 steps are taken per each 1 step instead.

Author's Notes
I'd been meaning to create a feature like this for some time as I wanted to have feature in my game where there are areas of wilderness that are safer to travel on and you are also less likely to encounter strong monsters while you walk on the beaten path. Going off the path will lead to more encounters and tougher monsters. That was the idea behind this plugin. Hopefully you can find similar use or make something entirely unique with it.
Feel free to use it in commercial/noncommercial projects as you please, just credit me, thank you.
