  2. Controlling self switches from common events

    Hello friends! I didn't find any information about this in the forum. I guess my question is if it's possible to control the state of a self switch of an event via common events. Maybe it involves some scripting, if that is the case I would really appreciate if you could help me out! Thank you...

    How to place multiple, separate events on one tile

    Hi, everyone. I am VERY new to the RPG Maker game system, but have gone through tutorials for literal days. I've tried looking for an existing post to my problem, and it may be telling that it doesn't seem to exist. This may be a stupid question. You see, in my game there is a point where...

    Turn off all Self Switch 'A's

    Does anyone know of a simple way of resetting all self switches, but only relating one letter (self switch A for example), in an entire project? Ideally a simple script would be great but I'm happy to use a plugin if anyone knows of one. Thanks in advance!

    How to check if an event has switches?

    UPD: SOLVED—see the solution below. I'm writing a plugin to control self-switches remotely from other events. It's already working pretty well. Although, I'd like to add a debug message whether an event, which self-switch I want to change to, does not have that specific self-switch. In...

  6. Substitute Switch for Self Switch in existing Script

    Hello. I am a complete noob who is trying to make a game that is far too ambitious for my own good. I need a simple substitution in my script that I think should be an easy fix. This is a vision script for my Enemy AI. When detected, it activates Switch 1. I need it to activate the...

    Joining Party Members/Pesky Switches

    I'm working on my game, I'm currently stuck very close to the beginning. Basically, the game starts and you leave your house and go outside to see one of the actors, who joins your party just to go to the next location, meeting this other character that you fight. You get properly introduced...

  10. How do I set down a picked up item?

    Hey there, Hopefully the title isn't too confusing. I'm really new to RPG Maker and I have a small game I want to make. Something I can finish. With some research into Self Switches I've figured out how to make a sprite change or disappear, indicating you've picked it up. But I haven't been...

    Syntax Error for simple script: $game_self_switches

    Hey All, I'm getting a syntax error for running some script in an event: The script is: $game_self_switches[[@map_id,1,'A']] = true   I thought this was pretty straightforward.. I'm trying to get the current event ("Door1" or EV002) to force EV001 (who's within the same map) to turn its...

    SES Switches and Variables v1.0 by Solistra Introduction This script allows you to access and use switches, variables, and event self-switches in a more flexible manner than that used by RMVX Ace by default.

    [Ace] Turning off a large amount of self switches with a script call.

    Hi there! I used to have a script call for something like this but I can't for the life of me remember what it was, and it was for VX too so I have no idea if it'd work. Basically, I'm trying to recreate the Dark Souls respawn system, whereby activating a save point will respawn every enemy...

    The Self Data Suite (Self Switches, Variables, and Metadata for Everything)

    This is really cool, looks like a nice framework for attaching data to anything you want. I may be just starting out in RGSS scripting, but I can already think of a couple things I've wanted to implement that this will help out with. Great work and thanks for sharing!

Who would think putting a power button on a side of a laptop is a good thing? You want to move the laptop and you suddenly press the button.

The second draft of my script is almost done, and I don't think I'm going to write a third draft. I'll make changes to dialogue here and there, but I'm happy with the series of events the way they are.

How you feel about font and dialogue box changing for every main character while the minor cast and regular npc get their own styles? Too much?

Just found an obviously custom effect (i.e. edited by me) in my resources>sounds folder called "rip jaw off". Dear Lord what is wrong with me as a person that at some point I needed a sound *specifically* for THAT??
