Event Redoing itself

[SenpaiX]

I have installed RMVX Ace about a week ago, and have been working on a game that takes place in a school.
The problem is that in the start, a student is supposed to arrive to school and go the are when they chat with other students. The event works fine but when I re-enter the school entrance, they keep coming again while they are supposed to stay in their place that they stopped at. I tried using switches, but something seems to be wrong and the problem is still happening. Here is the event :-

Any help would be much appreciated, Thanks.

you need to switch off the event to a new page or it will always start at the regular page again.

Like, Making a new page that switches the event off?

 

[Andar]

not exactly - making a new page to switch off to, but the original page needs to switch this at its end.

I don't get it..

Could I suggest that you follow the link in Andar's signature to his extremely useful compilation of info and "how to..." for new users. The question you are asking is basic eventing. Spending a bit of time working through his tutorials, and those he links to, will save you a vast amount of time and frustration in the long run.

Most likely, this is a switch issue with the Autorun event that moves all the characters to the player, and not the event pictured. Could you post a picture of that event instead?

If you have multiple events, use a switch rather than a self switch, and give them a blank page conditioned by the switch, so when you turn the switch on, they disappear.

They are supposed to stay where they stop for the rest of the day in the current version, Not to disappear.

Then set the event sprite for that page to the same sprite.

That only keeps them from disappearing after talking to them, not to prevent them from reentering the school every time I visit the entrance.
