I make websites and applications for a living... Therefor I have a certain logic in coding, which I understand myself.
Now my issue is this:

I first declare a variable in a COMMON EVENT.
Make sure it is set to zero.
Then I add +1 .. which would make it an integer with 1.

I run it, the game bugs out, shows an empty text box.
Whatever I try, I am unable to use a variable to return a number, and my logical brain is absolutely baffled.

So here is how I reproduce, after picking up an amethyst, I can break it down into its core elements with a common event as shown above. I use the item:

And it crashes.. it shows some weird jumping black bar, or sometimes a empty textbar

Now if I remove the variables from the event, I do get this (as expected):"

Help me understand, I beg you.

So this works:

But adding this crashes it:

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
