Can I put down a whole book and allow players to jump according to the chapter list? On the other hand, I hope that players can convert the length of time they read the book into the growth of the attributes of the game character. Imagine that after reading "The Art of War", the player character becomes wiser.
I understand what you're trying to do, and that was actually going to be another feature called "Locked Pages", but due to time constraints I haven't been able to implement it yet. The idea was precisely that the player could unlock "pages" with switches and display a message or hide the content until that condition is met. Once I have a bit more free time, I will definitely implement that functionality in a plugin update.
Until then, you can use the "Required Switch" feature, which allows you to hide a book until the switch is active.
In your case, you could perhaps divide your story into:
"My Adventure - Chapter 1/12", "My Adventure - Chapter 2/12"... and so on.
Do you have any MV plugins? For some reason your MZ plugins are tagged as MV in the search bar, and it's extremely frustrating... I can't use any of these.
Hello friend, thanks for your information, and I'm sorry to hear that.No, in fact I only work for MZ, and all my plugins use the same banner Precisely so they can be easily identified.Of course, I understand the inconvenience this may cause you. I usually don't mark the MV category. If I missed it in any plugin, I apologize for the error and of course I will fix it.But if it's a failure of the itch.io algorithm, then you can imagine that there's little I can do xd
Ah okay! Sorry then! I guess it’s just an Itch thing like you said. Shame because these look so amazing! Maybe if I decide to switch to MZ, I’ll try them out. :D
Another cool one, I have system with codexes in my game planned, this could come in handy for it! Could I technically use background images on the pages and other images on top of it?
Having to read tomes/scrolls/writs to learn new techniques? We need more games with that kind of functionality; it was ultimately (and unfortunately) scrapped for Ultima IV.

Could a custom main menu made into a book using this plugin?
Mmm.. I don't think so, it's a system to read books, it doesn't replace anything in the game xD
Thank you. Still interested in using in my game when I get to that point to have books

Great! I'm glad you like it. Yes, and yes, both are possible :)

Wow!

This is awesome!!! Tutorials are about to be so much cooler lol

Goodness me, I can scarcely believe it. Is the whole plugin in its own namespace, so it is compatible with the VS suite?
Thank you very much!
I suppose so, since it’s not covering any part of the actual game scene, and everything runs through HTML5.
So you should be able to use it without any issues :)
