Bug Fixes for Both of RMXP's Interpreter's Script Commands​

Introduction

For ages we've known very well that the RMXP Interpreter class had an issue with command_355 aka the script event command. It has to evaluate the result of a script pasted as mere text in a very small window.

The problem was that certain non truthy values, anything that doesn't return true as end result, might get ignored by the game engine. This part and its related solution are nothing new in the XP community and I just "copied & pasted" that centuries old solution here.

Nonetheless, that's not all this scriptlet has to offer. I was discussing some issues with XP in a VX ACE channel when I noticed there was another bug that usually got ignored in RMXP. It was the script condition in the conditional branch event command! Shocked

The issue is very simple. You open the conditional branch and choose the script condition and type something there that's supposed to return a boolean value. (No if conditional reserved term is required there.) Now you'd expect me to tell you that it had the same issue the script command has... but nope, that's not the case here.

Both a truthy (true) and a falsey (false) value are fine and work just as intended. Yet, here comes the dreadful nil value into play!

Whenever your call returns a nil, your check becomes invalid and the engine simply skips it. Just like that, guys!


Don't worry pals!

The scriptlet below has come to Save-Point to solve that issue! :issue:

Infrequently Asked Questions

Q: Has anybody else posted anything like this before?
A: Who knows? In any case I preferred to leave the script here just in case anybody fiddling with RMXP ever needs it.

Terms & Conditions

You can do whatever you want with it, I just built something upon somebody else's work and that's it.
