Scrolling system

Getting an idea from another thread, i decided to make a view scrolling system. The player remains stationary, while the view scrolls around the map according to the wish of the player. It's hard to believe how much time went into it.

I don't have time to make it all fancy, so I'll just put a screenshot later and the download link now:

Just look for the Introduction in the Common events.

I didnt download it, i think it can be done by events, but i';m not sure.

And i know you did it with events, maybe easier ones, so good work.

It's odd how complicated it became when I actually started taking in the big picture. You can't make the player fixed simply with events, so I had to make a whole system of strategically placed blocks and messed-up character graphics.

My way of doing it is that i would simply put an even with your character image that is fix and dont move then simply have your Hero invisible moving around and when you hit a key it warp back to it's main location switching image from switch off(without a picture and make hero visible face down)


Of course if you want it to be done from anyware around the map, that would need something else to work on but i myself try to work to lower the even use so i would have to pass an hour making it possible then 2 days to optimize it to the best to avoid using too much even or switch.

I dont know much about scrip as i do mostly all i want using only even and switch/branche etc.

Keep up the good work!

You know, that's actually more efficient than the system I have right now. The downside is that it's slower and has more of a delay than my system.

Your right...hum..maybe you can find the way to move faster (there were a way to move Hero faster then is normal speed just like the springshoes would make in FF3) if you can increase your hero speed then you can move way faster and scrool the map a lot better.

Just an idea ^-^ v
