I need a script that i can put into an event (Via the button script in the event pallette) that randomly selects tabs in an event.  I need it to be able to select a random tab from the same event and if possible i need it to be able to randomly select only tabs that i want it to.  Please help me, becuase google ain't shown mercy... ;9

When you create a new event, simply hit "New Page" and it will create a new tab.  I don't know why they didn't just put "New Tab".  Maybe someone in the english translation department got lazy?  Well, whatever the case may be, once you create taht tab, you will see some tabs (Obviously) right under the "New Page" and "Copy Page" buttons etc.  Click on the new tab.  It's completly blank.  This feature is good for alternate events.  It's very good for your quest journal becuase i can make the event that starts your quests turn on a variable, and when that variable activates, i talk to the NPC (Person) that i specify, and get a completely different responce.  I might have to make a video becuase i'm not quite sure that i'm being quite clear.  Again, im'a noob.  However i'm sure of the tab things one becuase i've used them, two becuase in teh events pallatte(The one that opens when you hit "Insert") if look to the near botton you will see a bunch of buttons, and few of them pertaining to tabs.  That's how i know they're called tabs, becuase i messed around with them a lot.  It turns out that you can make a tab jump to another tab if the conditions aren't right.  This feature is very good becuase it makes event's less messy.  I will still follow up with some images just in case this isn't enough (I have a feeling.)

Thanks!

Ok, im' really sorry for this guys.  (I swear on my dead body no matter how hard i try i'm still a noob making typos and gramatical errors.)
Ok, it's called "Labels" not "Tabs".  But basically they are tabs. Sorry.  Pics should clear things up.

So... you want to have tabs in Common Events? Because...if you mean tabs in map events, then please leave because they're already there. lol - I guess I could see that having Tabs in common events would be more useful, but you'd need a programmer and a scripter to literally manipulate the program.

No, I don't want a "tab" in the common events menu. I notice that some scripts on this website manipulate the events on the map like in moderns quest journal.  Can't you guys create something that randomly selects labels?  Maybe a new script and copy and paste one-line codes that you can put into the map event?  I'm not asking too much think...  Then again, what do I know about stuff anyway.

Look man whatever you're looking for, you'll be fine without it, because no one else has ever asked for anything like this ever, unless you're some kind of star rmvx user, then i think you can just go on and forget the tabs thing

Ok, so we're talking about Labels, and not? New Pages. Couldn't do something like this?

Control Variables: [XXX: Random] = Random 0..y
Conditional Branch: Variable [XXX: Random] == 0
  Jump to Label: 0
Else
  ...
  Conditional Branch: [XXX: Random] == y
    Jump to Label: y
  End
End
