Double resume error from paralell common event?

[Dark_Metamorphosis]

So I'm experiencing something very weird from a common event that I try to run, thing is that it works without any issues if I call it from an auto run, the skill window appears like it should and I can choose spells. But if I change it to parallel (to prevent the screen from freezing ofc) I get an Fiber-error, nothing I have ever seen before? 

The common event and the error can be seen in the attached files (very simple stuff.)

Any ideas?





Thanks!

What exactly does the script command do? Any chance it invokes $game_map.update?

The error usually occurs when you try to update the execution of an event inside the event itself. "Parallel Process" events are usually updated every time you call $game_map.update, so you should avoid to invoke that within a parallel process event.

That common event already is a parallel process, and parallel process CE's cannot be called by the event command, they need to be activated by their switch.

Also try to increase the wait time, from my tests, my shortest press of a button registers for about 4 frames but usually lasts up to more than 10 frames. You could also just change it to Input.trigger?Y) so that it only registers once per press.

Also, what does that script call does?

Also, are you calling the CE from outside? That could also cause a problem since you're calling the CE when it's already running anyways (assuming the switch is ON).

The script command in question is for yanflys Skill event and it opens a window with categorized spells that sets the Skill ID into a variable when each spell is used. I will try and see if Wait time and the key input command will work. I still find it weird that the CE runs fine if I put it into an auto fun though, should be the same deal for both? Just read on the script comments and seems like others has the same issue. Might be a problem with the script call then, which If so is pretty unfortunate. Will have to use events to interact with instead of using a CE then I guess.

As it seems, when you call event_select_skill the event interpreter takes control over the entire scene until a skill is selected. All map related updates are also done during this time, excluding the main event interpreter (which handles non-parallel event execution, so there should be no error when doing that call within a non-parallel process event). It's a quite unusual way of controlling a selection window and I didn't look long enough at the script to tell if there could be a specific reason for this.

However, you could split your event in two common events. One parallel process to check when the player presses [Y] to turn a switch on, and a second "Autostart" event that invokes the script command when that switch was activated. As a - perhaps positive - side effect skill selection is automatically blocked during a cutscene, since only one non-parallel event is executed at a time.

That could actually work. I just need to make sure to disable the switch some way in the CE then. Yeah, I havn't really tried that yet but I hope that you won't be able to open it during a cutscene.

I'll try this out and see if I can work it out, since I rather would have the possibility for the player to open the window everywhere on the map instead of interracting with specific events related to the overworld abilities only.
