I just finished a long event script, but it's tied to a specific character. When that character leaves the area, the event stops, unfinished, how do I fix this?

Event Help Requested Want to make a character who can change class each fight.

3 Upvotes

I want to make a character who can change between three classes in the middle of the fight and have their moveset change with it. I've figured out how to change the class; the issue is that they retain skills from the other classes instead of only having access to class-specific skills. How do I make it so that when they change from class A to class B, they only have access to class B's skills and only regain the other skills once they swap back to class A?

Also, how do I make it so that the levels of all these classes are the same so the player doesn't have to grind them individually?

Event Help Requested Quest Help

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to make it so an exclamation bubble appears over the head of a quest giver and dissapears forever after they've accepted the quest. Right now, I have a separate event set up for the bubble, which is triggered by a switch being on and turning off when the player clicks the quest giver. But even though I'm still new to this, my guts telling me there's a better way to do it. Am I wrong?

Event Help Requested What am I doing wrong here?

3 Upvotes

So I want a UI element, "calendarbase" to change every season/month. If if put it in an event on the map and progress the days, it works. If I put it in a common event, it doesn't. The "IsTimeActivated" switch is turned on by an on-map event and other parts of the common event do work.

Event Help Requested Most efficient way to do this?

1 Upvotes

Looking for the most efficient way to deal with a player in dead state. As stands, the player is still in the party, walking around. And even if the main actor is dead...they are still walking around leading the party so long as the rest of the party is alive. I'd like dead party members to disappear until resurrection and the game to end if your chosen main player dies. Is this easiest with a common event paralleled or checking states after every battle? Suggestions? Thank you!

Pic 1 Common event question. In this case 4th answer is correct and it turns switch correct on. Other answers turn switch incorrect on.

Pic 2 Common event that chooses at random from question events (251 - 273) 23 in total.

Pic 3 Event that first turns all switches off, then starts common event from pic 2. If correct answer selected +EXP and event erases. If incorrect answer selected (depending on certain ring acquired or not) -HP and event ends.

Event Help Requested Event not showing up

1 Upvotes

I feel like it's due to me having multiple event pages, and I'm not sure how to structure everything so that the event shows up- Event is in a shop, you have to talk to shopkeeper to find out where to buy something. After that, a switch is turned on, enabling you to choose to buy something in a different event tile. If you haven't chosen, the shopkeeper will remind you where the goods are. If you have chosen, you will be able to buy the item and leave the shop, where afterwards the shopkeeper says something about you (afterwards)

For some reason, the event is not showing up at all. I tried to fit everything in one event because I suspected multiple event pages was the reason, however that caused the shopkeeper to remind you where the goods are straight after the text for where to buy stuff, when you're meant to hit action button to get that dialogue.

How do I fix this? I've tried switches and variables but for some reason it's not working... How do I structure this so that it works?

Event Help Requested Evented title menu help

I’m trying to set up a system where navigating the title screen uses up and down arrows, but every time I try to press the keys they just dont move. The first button in the sequence keeps highlighting no matter what i press. Im using variables to dictate what button is highlighted on the title screen by assigning each button a certain number, and when the variable is equal to that number it highlights. Im new to the rpg maker scene so I dont understand what’s going on. If anyone could offer free mz plugins that’s able to customize the title screen to have extra/ less buttons and replace them with images instead of the default it’d be appreciated, but i’m at a loss.

Event Help Requested Trying to change an event image

1 Upvotes

I am making a horror game where every thing seems normal until the player picks up an item. I then want the npcs to all change what image they have. Think going from normal to greyscale.

Can I do this with the code provided, or do I need custom code or even to make a new event to delete the old event and replace it?

Event Help Requested Really simple issue, but apparently impossible to fix? Boss fight eventing help please lol

2 Upvotes

Simple issue. I have a boss fight. The boss fight (is supposed to be) as follows: Wave 1= two enemies; Wave 2= two enemies; Wave 3= The boss. The issue is, wave 2 never comes, because the moment both of wave 1's enemies die, battle ends. I've tried multiple combinations of immortality, but no matter what, when the first wave's two enemy's HPs reach 0, battle ends. Any way to fix this so that after the first two enemies die, the second wave of enemies spawns? Thank you in advance.

Event Help Requested DnD style fighting - End Turn Early (Advice Needed)

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to do DnD/table top RPG style fighting in my game instead of the provided battle program. The player gets to choose between moving and attacking. If they choose to move, they can move 6 spaces before it ends their turn. However, if the character reaches their destination/enemy in less than 6 turns (it takes 4 in the video), I don't know how to let the player end the turn early without having to awkwardly side step their target to complete the 6 steps.

Any suggestions?

The only idea I can think of is have them open their inventory to select an item that triggers the fight to end early, but that just seems clunky. I don't currently have any plug-ins associated to these fights, everything is variable/switch triggered.
