Ambient Pokémon Cries

    A 100% Plug-and-Play script for v16.2, it plays a random cry of a Pokémon on the route from all available encounter types, time allowing, every minute, plus/minus rand(5) seconds (but that's the default, play with the constants, yeah)
    Optionally, it allows you to disable and enable the cries with a switch.
    Place it in any script section under PField_Field, because it uses the Events Module, which is defined in PField_Field, and it will give an error otherwise.

    Now includes Roaming pokemon! Use CRY_ROAMERS to activate it.

    I don't want PC to break any scripts, so here's a Pastebin link!

    Cool concept! It would be interesting to use it for the roaming pokemon too.

    Ah, roaming pokemon! I completely forgot about those. I should update it to play those too.

    EDIT: And it's done! I spent more time testing than coding this once again!

    • I do have one small gripe to make...

    Is it possible to change it so it never plays a cry when you load up a save file? It always happens to me when I try to test out cry volumes.

    And keep in mind I'm having to load my save in a place with an encounter. This might happen in a finished game, and it might be weird for people to hear, or players could easily exploit what potential encounters there are in an area if they repeatedly close and re-open a game. I don't know, just trying to think about it like a game designer.

    EDIT: If I may clarify, the cry plays when maps are first loaded from a save file with encounters, but they are also played when maps are reloaded. For instance, when I get in a wild Pokemon battle and I come back from it, it'll play the cry in the background. That's what I would like to see fixed.

    The fix requested in the above post:
    Code: 
    Events.onMapUpdate+=proc {|sender,e|   # Ambiance check
  last=$PokemonTemp.lastCryTime
  now=pbGetTimeNow
  if !last
    $PokemonTemp.lastCryTime=now
  else
    diff=now-last
    quot=diff.floor / TIME_BETWEEN_CRIES
    if (diff > (quot+1)*TIME_BETWEEN_CRIES - RANDOM_TIME_FACTOR) || (quot>0 &&
      (diff < quot*TIME_BETWEEN_CRIES + RANDOM_TIME_FACTOR))
      pbPlayAmbiance
      $PokemonTemp.lastCryTime=now
    end
  end
}
