# Description:
# This script triggers the common event equal to the terrain tag you are
# currently on. This script only calls the common event once until you
# move to another tile, unless you enter the repeat command.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Usage Instructions:
# This script will call all common events from 1 to @final_tag. You may
# edit this value to it's max ammount (7).
# To set the common event to repeat, place a comment in the common event
# and type repeat. To set a pause for repeated event calls, type a comment
# as follows:
# wait #
# This will tell the script to wait for # of frames before repeating. For
# example, wait 40 should repeat the script 1 time per second. This
# depends on the refresh rate, which is by default 40.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Install Instructions:
# Place this script above the main script and below the default scripts.
