This is the game i have been working on a few days now. I have them doing eve everything up until the fire scene that is shown in the screenshot. The chick in the white is supposed to have another sequence but will not continue after the last fire appears. i tried to use call command to continue the event but failed. Can i please get some input on how to continue the same event or if i am not using the correct commands. 

Thanks.

We need to see the second page of the event to know where your problem is.

And remove the empty call common event - if you do call a common event and just didn't name that event, then we need a screenshot of that as well.

But I suggest you always name your events so you don't accidentally call the wrong event.

i dont understand how to name a call command event when doesnt give the option to name it. 2nd screenshot is now uploaded as well but its blank because we had her doing what we wanted her to do up till this point but for her to continue the event after the last fire just wont work. do i need another event page to continue the script for her to work properly? would like to do chat communication if possible. say skype?

Perhaps you misunderstand the command, especially since you give it the wrong name:

It's "call common event", not "call command event". And all common events in the database tab common event have a big box to put the name in it at the top, to the left of the trigger field.

And I think you're confusing a part of the rest of the event functions as well.

If the second page of the autorun doesn't contain any command, that means you're using it to switch off the autorun at the point where you command the self switch. That is neccessary because otherwise the autorun would loop.

But that also means that all command what the event should do have to be entered before the line "control self switch A = ON" on the first page.

Currently this is

1) call one of the common events entered into the database

2) show some text

3) Move one step backward

4) wait one second

5) disable the event

Especially the wait-command is useless since you do nothing after it...

If you want the event to make several steps backwart with pauses between them, then you need to enter the lines 3&4 several times until the event is in the correct place.

So, please describe what should happen in that event?

Especially what do you want to call in the first line?

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
