 Allows you to show visual on screen waypoints for whatever event you wish,
 using colored dots and squares, for better clarity of locations of various game objects.  

 ! Scroll to the bottom for Plugin Commands and Script Calls. !
 ! But the notes just below are vital for usage of the system. !
 

 Works for page comments as well, exact same format. If page changes, and the new page has a minimap comment, it will  adapt to the new pages comment setup. If the new page has no comment, the event will be removed from the minimap.   

Do not use both Event Notes, and Page Comments for a single event at the same
 time on the same event, only one is needed per event.    

If an event is erased, its waypoint will be removed.


 Add to an events notes to make use of it, YOFFSET and HEIGHT are required VISIBILITYRANGE is optional, color can be a hexcode or a word refering to one.
  If you don't wish to Y Offset a waypoint, set the YOFFSET to 0.

Hi I just bought this, so far so good! Seems to be what I've been looking for since forever lol. I'm wondering though, how hard would it be to change the Y offset of the waypoint sprite when it's on screen? Since I'm using tall sprites they have the dot on their face...

Im happy you like it!

What i will do is update it again tonight and allow you to set the y offset for each of the waypoints in the notes, that way it can be exactky where you need it :)

:0 Thank you so much!

Happy to help! I must thank you as well, it was a good idea, and I want my script to be just right for everyone :)
It seems to be all in working order, updated version is up!

V1.1 Allowed Custom YOffset.

Updated the documentation, make sure to read it, each waypoint requires input of the Y offset now for optimal placement within your game.

Added commands to enable or disable the waypoint system.
