Overview​

NPC Dialogue Speech Bubble is a powerful plugin for RPG Maker MZ that enables developers to display customizable speech bubbles above NPCs (Non-Player Characters) on the game map.

• Opacity Settings: Control the transparency of both the message window and the arrow.
  

Message Behavior:​

• Display Duration: Specify how long a message is visible (in frames; 60 frames = 1 second).
  
• Activation Distance: Set the distance in tiles at which the message activates.
  
• Repeat Modes:
  
  
  
  • never: Show the message only once.
    
  • onMapReload: Repeat the message each time the player re-enters the map.
    
  • onApproach: Display the message every time the player enters the activation zone.
    
  
  

Advanced Functionality:​
