Custom xp/skill system rpg2k3 problem

Hello, I'm new to this community as it is obvious. I am having an issue with the common event I'm using to check to see if Hero has gained x amount of exp. To get to level 2,3, and so on. My main goal is to setup a custom skill system for my game, and to start I am working on how the character levels. I did not like the standard way it does it. So my solution was to create variables to store values of the hero's exp., level, stats, etc. The first variable [Main Hero XP] stores the amount of exp. he has currently. I then created a common event called Level Check. Set on Parallel Process to constantly check if hero has gained the required exp. In the event I have a conditional branch.

Spoiler for:

<>Branch if Var [0101:Main Hero XP] is 100 or more
         <>Branch if Var [0101:Main Hero XP] is 200 Less
            <>Message: Welcome to Level 2
            <>
           :End
           <>
         :End

The issue is that since it is a constant event once I reach 100 exp. It will not stop whatever I put in the conditional branch. Like the message displaying the level. I thought about tricking the system somehow by messing with xp values. However I do not think it would solve the problem. I have tried using switches in combination with Level Check. It repeats because the conditional branch requirements have been met. Though I can't turn it off without losing the ability to constantly check against the exp earned towards a new level. It needs to be able to continue onto a new instance to where it checks to see if hero gained x amount of exp. towards level 3. Any help will be appreciated. Have fun!

Maybe a good idea would be to put a switch in after every level up and then create a condition that if the switch is on the event wont repeat

I talked about something similar in my tutorial right here.

Instead of checking if you're between certain amounts of experience, have the game check to see if you're level 1, level 2, etc. and go from there.

I can elaborate if you need me to, but I think the guide does a good enough job. Maybe.

nice tutorial

lets sum up and see what we have learned today!

The common event should be asking

If hero level = 1 then
      If hero XP > or = #Value then
            Set hero level to 2
      end if
end if

with some creative use of variables you won't have to repeat yourself

If #herolevel = #Nextlevel then
      If #heroXP > or = #NextlevelXP then
            Add 1 to #herolevel
            Add 1 to #Nextlevel
            multiply or add #Value to #NextlevelXP
' (you can do both by putting them on separate lines in the order you want them yo happen)
      end if
end if

Enjoy!
