A problem with switches.

Alright I did what you need to do to stop events from repeating, but when I test play the event never happens, the switches are in place one at the end of the event itself and another on the left of the 2nd page I made. Can anybody solve this and make my event happen when I test play ive searched the forums for hours and not found anything. And the version im using is RPG Maker 2003.

Post screens please, it will help us help you more quickly.

I dont know how to post screens the problem is that when I use the switches to end the event the event wont happen when I test play.

Right, so something is either happening before or after it should in the processes. To take a screen shot, make the screen show what you want on the screen. Then, press ctrl+Print Scr. Paste into MS paint. Save.

Can you see the event when the first page is active? Perhaps you merely need to set the event to auto start...

Its on auto-start I just checked so thats not the problem.

Is it that you're using the same switch for multiple events? That will not work out.

The switch must have been used by another event, so it's automatically going into the second page with the switch precondition.

If that confused you it means, that if you ON the switch in EVENT 1 to end EVENT 1, you cannot use the same switch to end EVENT 2.

No thats not it I only have 1 event so far.

you checked the second page to open on the switch, and not the first page right?

Preconditions Switch {insert number} here on. ONLY on page 2, page 1 nothing.

So no switch put on page 1? And do I only check the second switch box?

wait wait.

1st page
Event PRECONDITIONS
don't check switch on.

EVENT CONDITIONS
activate switch on.

1st or 2nd box dont matter.

2nd page
EVENT PRECONDITIONS
check switch on.

EVENT CONDITONS
nothing

Wheres event precondition if your talking about XP? Because im using RPG Maker 2003

2k3's the main one for me

If this helps you, you should search more. Keep reading, I tell how to use switches small lol.

Alright I folowed you instructions and they worked but theres one more last problem with the event......after the event ends I cant move my character.

Something tells me a parallel process (or an atuo-start) event is involved...

Do not put auto start on the second page.
