for my highschool rpg
(english project)
I need the following two scripts
1) the script that allows certain events to have a radius of 'sight' range infront and behind them, kinda like MGS for sneaking scenes
(I hope you catch my meaning)
2) can someone tell me how to change the battle background while in game with a call script event or something?
I could really use that...
I don't know which rpg maker you are using, but in xp/pk on the second event page there's a thing with name: Change map settings. There you can change the battle background.
When I needed fog of war for my game, I just did it with events, but, that was before I found this site, and realized it had this script on it:

EDIT:
Actually, rereading, that might not be what you are looking for. Maybe you want something so that like guards or something catch you if you get within a certain radius? You can do it with events, but it's a little complicated. Maybe someone will reply with a script :/

I have a bad habit of missing stuff like that.
thanks.
and yeah MA the fog of war isn't what I'm looking for.
the second script you described is exactly what I'm looking for, it's been done and posted before, I just can't find the thread
can someone please help me, this is quite urgent, my project is due next wednesday.
Well, you can do it with events. I don't know if there is a script out there but it's possible. If you want to know how to do it with events you have to use variables to keep track of the positions of the events and of the player.
yeah, I think I'll have to do it with events, but that means I'll have to disable Blizz' anti-lag script so it might lag like hell... :tpg:
It won't lag much, I shouldn't think. Anyway, there might be a script like that on .org. They seem to like making scripts for things which can be done with events.
Here's a guy who had a similar problem. Someone suggests a script here that might work:

That makes them seem so incompetent. XD Also, why is this for an english project? o0
we were assigned a 'senior perspective' to tell a story about school.
it could be in any medium, so I asked if I could make a game.
lo and behold, the teacher says yes. ;D
Also MA, that is exactly the kind of script I was looking for.
thank you soo much! rep++ btw,
[RESOLVED]
Mind showing me the final product later on? :) And since this will most likely be graded, it's a funny thought to see a teacher playing games to grade. :D

I'm gonna upload a download on phanxgames so yeah you'll get to play it.
also, the teacher doesn't play it, I'm gonna play it on a computer that's hooked up to a tv in front of the class ;D
Lol... That's kind of cheap, considering you know the game, inside and out. PM me about how it goes because I'm eager to know. XD
I'm gonna post a thread when it's done.
here's the flowchart
1 ) dream
2 ) wakeup/go to school
3 ) talk to friends
4 ) physics(test)
5 ) hallway walking/random battles
6 ) english(test)
7 ) try to skip class
8 ) need to get to band room w/out getting caught(this is what the script's for)
9 ) Fight in lunchroom (suspended, lol)
9 ) cutscenes
10 ) street fighting tourney in the city (just for fun and extended play)
