Rpg maker difficulty plugin
A downloadable Plugin
- DreamOn Difficulty v1.2
A major quality-of-life update has arrived for the DreamOn Difficulty System, bringing improved customization, cleaner code, and more balancing options than ever before. Full Plugin Cleanup The entire plugin has been completely reorganized and rewritten into a clean, readable structure. Previously compressed sections have been separated into clearly documented categories, including:
- Plugin Manager Input
- RPG Maker Stat IDs
- Editable Settings
- Core RPG Maker Integration
- Save & Load Difficulty Data
- Options Menu Integration
- Enemy Stat Scaling
- Easy Mode HP Bars
Extensive comments have also been added throughout the codebase to make future customization and maintenance significantly easier.
Fixed Plugin Manager Support
An internal plugin name mismatch has been corrected.
The plugin now properly reads all settings directly from the RPG Maker Plugin Manager, ensuring consistent behavior across projects.
New: Allow Change In-Game
A new Plugin Manager option has been added:
Allow Change In-Game
- ON → Players can freely change difficulty during gameplay.
- OFF → Difficulty can only be selected before starting or loading a game.
This gives developers full control over how difficulty settings are handled.
New: Independent Enemy HP Scaling
Enemy HP now has its own dedicated scaling values.
Default settings:
- Easy: 0.85x HP
- Normal: 1.00x HP
- Hard: 1.20x HP
This allows enemy survivability to be balanced independently from damage output.
New: Independent Enemy Damage Scaling
Enemy damage now has its own dedicated scaling values.
Default settings:
- Easy: 0.85x Damage
- Normal: 1.00x Damage
- Hard: 1.20x Damage
This provides much finer control over overall game difficulty.
Updated Difficulty Scaling
Difficulty now affects enemy statistics as follows:
- HP → HP Scaling
- ATK → Damage Scaling
- MAT → Damage Scaling
- DEF → General Stat Scaling
- MDF → General Stat Scaling
- AGI → General Stat Scaling
- LUK → General Stat Scaling
- MMP → Disabled by default
Existing projects will retain their current balance unless these values are manually adjusted.
Improved Customization & Localization
Player-facing labels can now be fully customized through the Plugin Manager.
Examples:
- Easy → Easier
- Hard → Veteran
- Difficulty → Challenge Level
The plugin has also been prepared for future localization support, making it easier to adapt for different languages and regional releases.
Easy Mode HP Bars
Easy Mode enemy HP bars remain fully supported.
Enemy-specific positioning can still be adjusted using:
<DMHPBarOffsetY: -60>
Result
DreamOn Difficulty v1.2 is now easier to read, easier to maintain, easier to customize, and easier to balance while remaining fully compatible with existing projects.
Thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoy the update.
