quest giver : my cellar has been infested with bats. can you clear it out

[you go down clear out the 5 bats]

Quest giver : thank you so much  here take this for your time

After you kill each bat, add 1 to a variable. Then, in the quest giver event, all you need to do is put a conditional where if that variable == 5, then he gives the reward.

do i need to make a variable in each of the bats for the quest? 

where it is a variable +1

and then have a variable in the givers event that notas that variable == 5

please if i am understanding this correctly inform me

Well if you have sprites of bats running around that are all events, you can use an event like this:

For the Bat:

@>Control Variable:[0001]Batquest += 1
   "This tells the game data that 0001 gets +1 when the bat is killed"
@>Battle Processing
  "This tells the game to start a battle with a "TROOP" of your choosing."
@>Self Switch A = ON
  "Turns Self Switch A ON"

New event page

If Self Switch A ON...    nothing, with no graphic.  (This will make the bat disappear after you kill it.)

Make sure you have hoowever many bats you need on the map.

Now the Questgiver:

@>Show Text:  "Clear out my bats from my basement!"

@>Conditional Branch:  Variable:[0001]Batquest==5
@>Show Text:   "Thank you for clearing my bats out, sonny!"
@>  Insert whatever rewards you want here

  Else:
  @>There are still so many bats, help!!



Hope this helps.
