Title: easy Event help
Post by: bivouac on December 20, 2007, 01:37:02 AM
Hey, this is my first post and I probably wouldn't have even signed up but there's something I cant figure out at all, and I'm sure its really easy to do.

I just got this program and I'm in the middle of my first map and I'm stuck. Okay, I really dont know how to eplain this easy so I'll do it as informatively as I can.

(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg36.picoodle.com%2Fimg%2Fimg36%2F5%2F12%2F19%2Ff_eventsm_8072740.jpg&hash=bb46282655853cd8c5c56c4f62edbaa61158c20f)

Now if that worked...

I set some events (yellow circle) to make my character walk up to the blue circled event. I set that event to player touch and I want it to trigger the legal guy to throw an exclaimation mark above his head and to begin talking. But I cant figure out what combination of switches or conditional branches or anything. Everything I try is fruitless and I can't move on without this happening...

I've looked up switch tutorials and youtube tutorials and I get some info but not really related to what I need. I'm sure I'm just doing something easily overlooked but I just need a point in the right direction. Thanks for any help.

Erm... Just get rid of the blue circled event. Do all the eventing in one event. Do the move event and then just do a "Show Animation" crap. Then use a SWITCH (not self-switch) to turn of all the events.

okay, that helped quite a bit, but now the exclaimation mark occurs as soon as I hit that event, how do I get it to hold off until I stop walking?

Nono, wait. For future references: Use "Wait Until Move Completion." The event stops happening until the move event that comes before it is done.
