~Change log~ conditionings for Shiny, Forms, integrated a new Array and self adding module simplicity. You've got to re-read most code sections likely to implement changes. (I was unable to figure out how to exit PauseMenu entirely again. Welp, tried. I think I saw the code somewhere, but I can't remember, or I'm implementing it incorrectly, etc. QOL have to wait until someone who's more familiar share that part.)
~This to do next~ Add def for entering and exiting house mount/demount.
Spoiler:
To autodismount when entering a building, simply pbDismount within the event like entering door.
To automount upon leaving a building, simply pbMount($game_variable[Whatever]) after storing the string from
Code:
saddle = "DEX"<<pkmn.species.to_s
to the same game variable.
This 'integration' is very basic and is split into two parts how to place it into Party Screen (e.g. Summary / Switch / Item / etc), and example place where we can code 'Dismount'.
There are 'many ways' to accomplish the following, this is just one way.
#Part 1 ~Setup~ i.e. Adding an Array to keep mounts in.
Spoiler:
First and foremost, we need to add a global array, mine is named $jaSaddleArray you may name yours what you'd like. Head to 'Script> Pokéride_Rides' and go to your first module. This happens to be mine.
Notice how the module is named DEX330_0 this simply means. DEX | species | form . This is the naming convention we'll be using for the module, it's vital to keep this convention unless you're doing your own thing.
Below is the first module to appear in my own script. Yours will be different.
Code:
$jaSaddleArray =[] #add this above first module, it will be used to store all mount calls.
module DEX330_0
$jaSaddleArray.push(self.to_s) if !$jaSaddleArray.include?(self.to_s) #add this line to every module, this line adds the module name to the array.
MoveSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon","Pokeride/001_Flygon"]
MoveSpeed = 5
ActionSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon_Run","Pokeride/001_Flygon_Run"]
ActionSpeed = 2
end
I've added three more example modules below. Notice the first is 'DEX330s_0' This simply means DEX | shiny | species | form. e.g. this module is for DEX330 Shiny Form 0. e.g. a shiny Flygon
Notice the second module, 'DEX330_1' no 's' string within. This just means DEX330 form 1, no shiny.
Code:
module DEX330s_0
$jaSaddleArray.push(self.to_s) if !$jaSaddleArray.include?(self.to_s)
MoveSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon","Pokeride/001_Flygon"]
MoveSpeed = 5
ActionSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon_Run","Pokeride/001_Flygon_Run"]
ActionSpeed = 2
end
module DEX330_1
$jaSaddleArray.push(self.to_s) if !$jaSaddleArray.include?(self.to_s)
MoveSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon","Pokeride/001_Flygon"]
MoveSpeed = 5
ActionSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon_Run","Pokeride/001_Flygon_Run"]
ActionSpeed = 2
end
module DEX330s_0
$jaSaddleArray.push(self.to_s) if !$jaSaddleArray.include?(self.to_s)
MoveSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon","Pokeride/001_Flygon"]
MoveSpeed = 5
ActionSheet = ["Pokeride/000_Flygon_Run","Pokeride/001_Flygon_Run"]
ActionSpeed = 2
end
#Part 2 ~Activation pbMount()~ In this particular example, I'll be adding it to the 'Party Screen'. You can rename 'Saddle' with whatever text identifier you'd like. "Ride/Mount" etc.

Go Into Script.
CTRL + SHIFT + F or Right-Click any script and choose option 'find...' search for the following code
Code:
cmdItem = -1
If can't understand how to do what's above, Head over to Script>PScreen_Party and CTRL + F for that code line.
~Changes #1~
Add the following line below found line so it'd appear like
Code:
cmdItem = -1
cmdSaddle = -1
~Changes #2~ Now we'll use the Global Array $jaSaddleArray and introduce a new basic @jaChecker variable which just makes things more readable and less tedious.
Find
Code:
commands[commands.length] = _INTL("Cancel")
Add the following line above found code, so it looks as follow
Code:
@jaChecker = "DEX" << pkmn.species.to_s
@jaChecker << "s" if pkmn.shiny?
@jaChecker << "_" << pkmn.form.to_s
if $jaSaddleArray.include? @jaChecker [B]and !$game_switches[5000] [/B] # $jaSaddleArray is the Array we setup earlier. $game_switches[5000] is used to determine if player is currently riding or not.
commands[cmdSaddle = commands.length] = _INTL("Saddle") #.edit
end
commands[commands.length] = _INTL("Cancel")
~Changes #3~
Find
Code:
elsif cmdDebug>=0 && command==cmdDebug
Add the following line above found code, so it looks as
Code:
elsif cmdSaddle>=0 && command==cmdSaddle #.edit
[B]$game_switches[5000] = !$game_switches[5000][/B]
pbMount Kernel.const_get(@jaChecker)
pbPlayCry (pkmn) #This should play the cry file of the PKMN.
@scene.pbEndScene
return nil
elsif cmdDebug>=0 && command==cmdDebug
#Part3 ~It's time to Dismount~
Spoiler:
Head over to PScreen_Pausemenu, make the following happen. (By now, I expect you guys know what to do, find and replace)
~Changes #1~
~Changes #2~ (I used gameswitch # 5000 here as an example. You may use what you'd like, 5k is the max however for essentials base)
Code:
commands[cmdPokemon = commands.length] = _INTL("Pokémon") if $Trainer.party.length>0
if $game_switches[5000]
commands[cmdDismount = commands.length] = _INTL("Dismount")
end
~Changes #3~
Code:
elsif cmdDismount>=0 && command==cmdDismount #.editn
$game_switches[5000] = !$game_switches[5000]
pbDismount
#@scene.pbEndScene unsure if this code line will exit the Pause Menu from dismount or not. Test if have time.
elsif cmdBag>=0 && command==cmdBag
I didn't test these new codes, you guys will have to do the debugging for us. I'm getting more confident in the amount of mistakes that are typed though, so it should pretty smooth sailing. (100x error message laters) haha
Thanks to StCooler for answering basic questions and quickly using fresh eyes to identify why my edits weren't working as intended.
This 'integration' is very basic and is split into two parts, activating pb(mount) and how to place it into Party Screen (e.g. Summary / Switch / Item / etc)
There are 'many ways' to accomplish the following, this is just the simplest method I'm currently using as I'm too lazy to read and integrate others.
#Part 1 ~Activation~ i.e. How the code will covert pkmn.species for PokeRide pbMount() to read. (Posting this so others can utilize this to their own dev.)
Spoiler:
We'd add the following code below to wherever we would like pbMount() to activate. In this example, $Trainer.party[0].species.to_s calls for the specie of the first pokemon within the party, [1] calls for the second, etc, [5] calls for the sixth.
First however, we need to name the Module correctly. Let's say we want to add Flygon, instead of naming it module Flygon, we need to name it module DEX330 e.g. the Pokedex number from calling pkmn.species
This is so the following code will work properly with pbMount() without any other edit.
When that activates within any script, it will do the same as pbMount(DEX330) which is where we placed our Flygon module e.g. module DEX330
#Part 2 ~Adding it somewhere~ In this particular example, I'll be adding it to the 'Party Screen'. You can rename 'Saddle' with whatever text identifier you'd like. "Ride/Mount" etc.
Spoiler:

CTRL + SHIFT + F or Right-Click any script and choose option 'find...' search for the following code

~Changes #1~
Add the following line below found line so it'd appear like
Code:
cmdItem = -1
cmdSaddle = -1 #.edit
You can ignore the #.edit this is just how I easily find and identifier all areas of custom edit.
~Changes #2~ Take careful notice to [330,128] e.g. in this example Flygon/Tauros. This is the Array to include your 'rideable/mountable' PKMN. If it's not in this array, 'Saddle' wont' show for the PKMN.
Find
Code:
commands[commands.length] = _INTL("Cancel")
Add the following line above found code, so it looks as follow
Code:
if [330,128].include? pkmn.species #330 is Flygon, 128 is Tauros, for the option of 'Saddle' to show, the species # needs to be on this list.
commands[cmdSaddle = commands.length] = _INTL("Saddle") #.edit
end
commands[commands.length] = _INTL("Cancel")
~Changes #3~

That's it. It works cleanly in my build, something I would really like to add but didn't have time is for ~Changes#3 to ALSO exit out of the 'Pause Menu', I've tried a few things but couldn't get that to work. I only got it to exit the Party Screen.
However, if you're planning to use this extra modifier, you'd need to rename your module to be 330_0 for Flygon since Flygon regular form is form 0. 330_1 for Flygon form 1. Etc etc.
Edit#1. Future me: No it can't. :') The species Array can remain the same, as if multiple form exist for a mount, it shouldn't cause any mishaps.
Edit#2 At this point, these edits are rudimentary. e.g. It doesn't offer the fluency to allow players to just 'mount' naturally. e.g.g. If Garados uses "Surf" , then mount Garados. i.e. Can't mount Tauros while on water. etc etc.
I'll update to include my own '.edits' regarding when I do that part. Many others have already done that of course, of which I'll read over and see how Essentials determine if player's on water or not, and only allowing PKMN whom may learn 'Surf' to be mount while on water.
A 'cry' SE from said PKMN upon mount would also add some emergence.
Hey it worked perfectly! But how do you get the character off the mount? I can mount, but I can't get out of the mount ... How to add something that will make it go down in the menu / party?
The basic dismount is done, others may refine by allowing us to exit out of the Pause Menu all the way. (I still can't figure that out, share code if you guys have it)
How to add dismount indeed. The code from PokeRide is
Code:
pbDismount
I'll think over the logic and write a small addition edit later today. Likely, I'll add an example to add it to the Pause Menu which shows up if players is mounted. (This I feel like is the simplest solution for most, then dev. can play with other solution atop if they'd like to upgrade) Player is mounted is determined by variable X which will be place upon the mount code.
Option #2 would be to establish a new hotkey which will dismount wherever the player is whether they are mounting something or not. At the same time, I might as well add conditions like e.g. player can't dismount while surfing.
Similar to how "follow PKMN" have a hotkey which toggles Following PKMN. So there's two primary edit, one is to add "is player on mount? variable and set it to true upon mounting" and adding that conditioning to if Demount will show up or not.
With the current edit, I think there's enough information regarding how to add a command to Essentials base menu. I encourage you guys to try to replicate, although of course, community will do its thing as well so if you guys can't get it to work, come back to forum after some time.
rest are irreleveant info regarding PokeRide within my own projects. e.g. wow the community have sprited a lot of rides so far.
Spoiler:
As I actually really been enjoying messing with pb(mount) as the potential is 'very far' beyond just PKMN. Motorcycle, Surfboard, etc. As soon as the sprite is made anyway.
pb(mount) is a late intergration within my own project. e.g. it's cool to have, there's a lot of other stuff I should code first.

Your script is incredible, I saw that it works very well!
But I have some very important questions for everyone.
Regarding the alternative forms of Pokémon, I find myself unable to access through the MENU / PARTY ...
You left only one command for the player to use if you have an alternative way:
pbMount Kernel.const_get ("DEX" << pkmn.species.to_s << "_" << pkmn.form.to_s)
However, when using the mount that the Pokémon does not have a shape, it causes an error:
Spoiler:

Because I do not have the shape of this Pokémon configured, but I have several others with graphics and everything complete.
I would like to use the mount in Pokémon with multiple forms through the Menu / Party that you created, could you give a solution for that?
And another EXTREMELY important detail! A support for Shinys Pokémon too, I also designed graphics for mounting on normal Pokémon and Shinys, I hope you can develop the script to be really professional and wonderful, more than it already is.
~Change log~ if "NEW" in bold is by previous parts, there are edits to be made.
Spoiler:
1. Added basic dismount through main Pause Menu. Re-read everything to ensure you have the edits correct
~Things that'd be nice, but I can't figure out~
Spoiler:
Allowing us to exit the Pause Menu entirely when we "dismount", allow us to exit the Pause Menu entirely when we "Saddle/Mount". Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
~Things I'll add eventually~
Spoiler:
To autodismount when entering a building, simply pbDismount within the event like entering door.
To automount upon leaving a building, simply pbMount($game_variable[Whatever]) after storing the string from
Code:
saddle = "DEX"<<pkmn.species.to_s
to the same game variable.
Also have to check for game_switch if player is on mount or not. etc. I'll ponder 'over it' later. As there's many ways to complete that.
This 'integration' is very basic and is split into three parts, activating pb(mount), how to place it into Party Screen (e.g. Summary / Switch / Item / etc), and finally an example place where we can code 'Dismount'.

Good job, good job, Hopefully it all works. And in addition, I think you guys get a little sense of how to edit the menu, and how these basic codes talk to one another. I'm newer to Ruby as well, and it was fun.

Hi July It's Very Cool If Someone want to have a option to make Pokemon mount. Can you make for following Pokemon. If select option It will follow then unfollow option come. If you done thanks.

I'll mike some small tweak to accompanied what you desire since they are very small tweak. Your module needs to be named DEX78_0 is the thing, it's trying to search for module DEX78_0 instead of DEX78. It's all naming convention.
However, if you're patience, I'll make the tweaks later today as I just woke up and I have the codes dancing in my head to how it'd be easier to manage. e.g. no need to rename all 'form 0' module as DEX78_0 for example. Although that is one solution.
So when it try to mount, if form is 0. it'll mount DEX78_0 (the module name) and DEX78_1 if form 1. For shiny, it's basically the same. I'll write some clean code after breakfast. The idea being to not concatnate pkmn.form if form = 0. and not concatenate shiny mod if not shiny.

Do you mean like specific one? e.g. Following PKMN comes with a hotkey that toggles PKMN following sprite. e.g. you can turn off and on easily if PKMN are following already.

After testing the codes, let me know how it goes. As I didn't have time to debug these changes, but I'm confident in them. Share error message if occur.
What would you like for the game to do when you select option from menu specifically?
At the moment, PKMN following comes with a 'toggle hotkey'. When press this hotkey, it will hide all following PKMN. when toggle again, it will show all following PKMN.
Search for these code lines if PKMN following default already has whatcha would like.
Code:
# Allow the player to toggle followers on/off using the Key specified below
ALLOWTOGGLEFOLLOW = true
TOGGLEFOLLOWERKEY = :BACKSLASH
