You need two pages on one event.

Make the first page just the talking, then have it activate self switch A.

Have the second page have the condition "Self Switch A = ON", then use whatever to have the guy walk around.

uh yeah, or you could just put in a wait for move completion after the move event, then put in the text. one thing you should learn is, you don't need multiple events to have multiple characters move. there is no need for a parallel process in this situation.

That would work if he wanted the guy to move and then talk.  However, he wanted the guy to talk, then move around.  Technically, it's one event with two pages.

no, you don't need to event pages.

Do this:

<Set Move Route [Character01]>
   <Wait 30 Frames>
   <Move left>
   <Move left>
<Show Text [I'm talking, and in 30 frames I'm going to start walking left>

basically your starting the move command before the message, but your making him wait in the move command itself, hope that helps.
