Title: Caterpillar
Post by: guyvers bane on September 15, 2008, 06:06:03 PM
Okay. I'm using the "drakul" caterpillar system and I been trying to find a way around having to paste the caterpillar event on every map I go to. Is there an easier way?

 :( Sorry. I've seen some other cater pillar systems out there that don't mention pasting to every page. Either that or they just didn't add that piece of, critical, need to know, information. well if anyone figures this out, let ALL of us know.

I do not think this is possible in 2k3.


To do this, you would need the ability to teleport events, which i do not think is one of the commands.

If there is, It's probably possible. You'd just need a common event and some way of tracking therein. (It would probably be the same as the positioning system i'm assuming is in the tutorial.)

If it's possible and you need help eventing, then PM me or something. If it isn't possible, sorry then ;9

the 'change event position' command only works within the map the event exists on, it can't be called to transfer to other maps...I think

I remember reading something about when someone tried to do this it took them days to figure out a way, and it was a really hacked up way. I can't remember the site though.

You might be able to put it in a common event if the follower events all have the same ID in every map. So like the first three events in every map or something are the followers.

At least, you could in RMXP. I am not sure about 2k3
