Introduction

This is a simple utility plugin that allows you to have more control over the event position in a tile, so that it can have a perfect placement in the scene. For example, it can be used to place the event a few pixels up and make it fit better like it is sitting on a chair, or a few pixels to the right, to hide behind a tree or an ornamental plant.

How to Use

WARNING: This plugin requires RPG Maker MV 1.5.0 or above! Please make sure your RPG Maker MV software is up to date before using this plugin.

First of, download the plugin here.

The plugin has no parameters and all usage is done through event notes or comment tags. It's important to know that comment tags have precedence over note tags. That means that if you setup an event page with a different offset value then its note field, whenever that page becomes active it will overwrite the note settings.

Both tagging methods use the same syntax:
<TAA_EO: x={op}{n}; y={op}{m}>​
<TAA_EO: x={op}{n}.{w}; y={op}{m}.{k}>​

{op} can be replaced by one of the following operands: + (sum), - (subtraction), * (multiplication), / (division). You can also omit it entirely, which means the exact coordinate will be used.

{n} and {m} are integers, while {w} and {k} are used for precision placement  inside the tile itself. If {w} and {k} is omitted or set as zero, it would represent the tile center coordinates, while any value greater than zero (along an operand, like + or -) would describe coordinates inside the same tile.

Let's say, for example, that you want the event to be placed above its central coordinates, but halfway from the tile upper border:
<TAA_EO: y=-0.5>​
or even make it also halfway from the tile left border:
<TAA_EO: x=-0.5; y=-0.5>​

You can also replace any of the numeric parameters ({m}, {n}, {w} or {k}) with a variable value. To do that, use the tag v[{var num}]. For example, to use variables one and two to fine tune the event position, considering that their value hold the event position inside the tile:
<TAA_EO: x=-0.v[1]; y=-0.v[2]>​

In another example, the event can also be moved to coordinates specified by the same said variables, without the use of operands:
<TAA_EO: x=v[1]; y=v[2]>​

Or even use four variables to control every aspect of the event's position:
<TAA_EO: x=v[1].v[2]; y=v[3].v[4]>​

If using variables, keep in mind that values must be positive and it is more limited. For example, setting a variable to 1, 10 or 100 and using it as your decimal value (the value after the dot) will provide the same result: in either case it will translate to .1. I might consider changing this behavior in the future if the need arises.
