Yes, as long as it is Spell Speed 2 or 3, and Set on the field previously in the case of a Quickplay Spell or Trap card.

That means the opponent can potentially do something before you get your first opportunity to activate a spell speed 1 card or perform a summon.

This is the structure for a turn:

Draw phase

standby phase

main phase 1

battle phase

main phase 2

end phase

standby phase comes after your draw phase. nothing really happens here, it is just a phase for certain card effects to activate. if there is not an available effect to activate, you move on to you main phase 1.

Your Standby Phase is after your Draw Phase, but before your Main Phase 1.

Can you activate royal decree in your opponent's turn if he didn't do anything during his turn?

Even if the turn player makes no game actions (apart from his turn draw), he still has to pass Priority to his opponent each time he wants a phase to end. The opponent could activate his Royal Decree during any of these times, so, he could do it in the draw phase, standby phase, main phase 1, and end phase (the turn player can proceed straight from main phase 1 to the end phase. If the opponent did have a card that could only be used in the battle phase, here, he would not be given chance to use it).

In yugioh can magical hats be used for effects trap spell monster effect ie maneater bug or only to be used when your opponant attacks a monster on your side of the field?

Magical hats can only be used during your opponent's battle phase. Seeing as they can't flip their monsters during their battle phase, no. However, if your opponent does activate a spell or trap card during the battle phase, you can use Magical hats and protect your monsters. Overall, yes. You can use magical hats to protect your monsters from targeting effects as long as it's during your opponent's battle phase.

Can you activate a Quick-play Spell Card from your hand?

You can only do so in your turn. You may do so during Main Phase like a normal Spell Card. You can also do so to start a Chain. For example, if your monster attacked and your opponent activated Mirror Force, you can Chain My Body as a Shield from your hand. If you plan to activate a Quick-play Spell Card during your opponent's turn, however, you must Set your Quick-play Spell Card during your Main Phase.
