RPG MAKER MZ Plugin: Crafting Table

Crafting Table Plugin

For RPG MAKER MZ

Overview

Welcome to the Crafting Table Plugin, your key to creating a dynamic crafting experience in your game! This plugin allows you to simulate a crafting table for items, enabling you to craft objects by positioning different items in certain slots, much like the beloved crafting system in Minecraft.

How to Use

1. Defining Recipes:

<Recipe: A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I>

Here's a visual representation of the 3x3 square:

     
        A   B   C
        D   E   F
        G   H   I
 

For example, crafting a Super Potion (ID 8) using 3 potions (ID 7) in the middle area (D, E, and F) would have the recipe:

<Recipe: 0,0,0,7,7,7,0,0,0>

The 0s indicate empty slots, and the 7s indicate the IDs of the necessary items.

1. Adding Conditions: (Only  in Full version)

You can add conditions to crafting recipes using either Switches or Variables, making it easier for game developers to manage. Use the following format in the item's notes:

• Using Switches:

<Condition: switch 10 "You need to complete episode 1 to craft this">

In this case, the item requires switch 10 to be active for crafting.

• Using Variables:

<Condition: variable 5 > 10 "The variable 5 must be higher than 10">

Here, it requires variable 5 to be greater than 10 for crafting.

You can also use comparison operators like >, >=, <, <=, =, and <> in conditions.

You can combine multiple conditions:

<Recipe: 0,0,0,7,7,7,0,0,0>
<Condition: switch 10 "You need to complete episode 1 to craft this">
<Condition: switch 11 "You need to find Adrian to craft this">
<Condition: variable 5 < 100 "The variable 5 must be less than 100">

Here, you need 3 requirements to craft the item: 2 switches and the variable 5 must be less than 100.

1. Crafting Cost:

You can charge players for crafting items by adding the following line:

<Recipe Cost: x>

For example:

<Recipe: 0,0,0,7,7,7,0,0,0>
<Condition: switch 10 "You need to complete episode 1 to craft this">
<Condition: switch 11 "You need to find Adrian to craft this">
<Condition: variable 5 < 100 "The variable 5 must be less than 100">
<Recipe Cost: 100>
    

This requires 100 in-game currency and meeting the specified conditions.

1. Checking Conditions:

You can see the fulfilled conditions on items with a condition by tapping "Repag."

1. Crafting:

To perform crafting, simply press Shift when you meet all the requirements. The interface will guide you by default, and you can customize the messages to your liking from the plugin's properties.

Conclusion

Crafting in your game has never been easier or more versatile. With the Crafting Table Plugin's FULL version, you can create intricate crafting systems with conditions and costs, enhancing your players' experience. Have a great time crafting!

This was exactly what I needed, thank you!
Since I have a lot of usable and unusable items I made a small change to line 1142 so it would only show usable items:
return $gameParty.hasItem(item) && DataManager.isItem(item) && this.isEnabled(item);
It's my first time using RMMZ so if there's a better way to do it, or the plugin gets updated with something like this, I'd love to know, thanks :)
