Third Party Features - Features being Implemented on other forks

[jetrotal]

Here I'll list work from different devs that use EasyRPG Player Source code. Those showcase interesting features that could work alongside our own fork.

@JorgeMaker8000 - ManiacPatch's Stringvars:

Source code: https://github.com/JorgeMaker8000/The-Cooler-EasyRPG-Player/tree/game_strings

Status: Implemented on Our Repo!!!

Demo:  ### @JorgeMaker8000 - Pixel Movement, 8 directions Movement and alternative MoveTowards/MoveAway algorithms Source code : https://github.com/JorgeMaker8000/The-Cooler-EasyRPG-Player/ Status: WIP (I guess the code is not public yet) Demo:  https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/840301484259147806/1098730134682480660/Easy_Tests_-_EasyRPG_Player_-_FPS__99_2023-04-20_18-58-37.mp4

@lychees - More Roguelike and multiplayer Mechanics inside the Player

Source: (They have a bunch of different projects - from card games to action games, all based on YNO mechanics, kinda hard to track - need better links) https://github.com/EasyRPG/Player/issues/2748 https://github.com/lychees/ynoclient https://github.com/orgs/w3itch-crafter/repositories

Demo:

@Ledgamedev - A bunch of visual experimentation over EasyRPG Player

Source: (Not updated in a while, maybe the newer text management libraries from the player could improve his code) https://github.com/Ledgamedev/ynoclient

Demo: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/940739214960644096/1028011867580420106/sway.mp4

@monokotech - Native Multiplayer support

Add multiplayer functionality and the server in C++.

I found I have implemented different feature in different demo game I made(e.g. I made auto speed read button for a galgame demo, random maze generator for roguelike demo). Each of them has ad-hoc code and it makes me hard to figure it out what I have done a few month later. A third party event commands guide might be helpful. https://github.com/EasyRPG/Player/issues/2338

We don't have a propper guide, we started adventuring with new commands after discovering that maniacs patch let us write them inside rpg maker's editor.

A good start is taking a look at this PR: https://github.com/EasyRPG/Player/pull/3183/files

I'm also trying to keep some control over what have been done:

// Mack commands
2001 - Path Finding // remade by Ellie
2002 - Trigger Event At

// Jetrotal Commands
2049 - SetGameSpeed
2050 - Call Movement Action
2051 - Wait For Single Movement
2052 - Animate Variable
2053 - Set Interpreter Flag
2054 - Get ID By Name
2055 - Process JSON CODE
2056 - Clone Event
2057 - Destroy Event
2058 - String Picture Menu

I guess new commands ID between 2025 and 2035 may be a good start point to place your new commands.
