we need a bit more than that to help you.
after all it's just a transfer player command to a ship map, but it doesn't sound as if that is all you want...

i want a ship system where the player can transfer inside the ship when the ship is driven if a button is pressed. The player can also go outside and ride the ship if he wants.

is the ship only available on a single world map, or does it transfer through different maps?

Yes the ship can wander in a single overworld map. While on ship and if the player presses a certain button the player transfers in a map that is inside the ship so he could do stuff like talk to NPCs check whats inside and also If the player is done checking the player moves to a door and returns on the overworld so that he could control the ship.

OK, that makes it even simpler - I thought you had something more complex in mind.

but for that, you only need to have a button-controlled teleport event on that one map.

you'll need three variables for the transfer command, and then

and on the shipmap the transfer back uses the three variables given to get the player back to the position where he came from.

two important points:
1) you might have to adjust the wait command. More frames mean less lag, but the button reacts slower. Less frames mean more lag, but the button reacts smoother and faster.
the correct number depends on what else is going on on that specific map, so 5 frames is only a guess and needs to be corrected after playtests.

2) you might have to add some more commands to leave the ship, or you would sail through the ship cabin, but I'm short on time and can't test those out at the moment, sorry

Only getting inside the ship works but when i go outside to control it the player is stuck in the ship's position cuz if the command get on/off vehicle is applied on an sea type vehicle it needs to be one step further away from it not in the same position to get in and ride the vehicle. I tried moving the player by 1 tile when transferred outside but it extends like 10 tiles and my player is stuck in the ocean.

I've tried putting Through On then 1 step forward/backward away from the ship it worked but the command Get on/off vehicle is ignored. The command says that the player must be "on land" in order to get in the vehicle.

There are scripts that can do what you want, but the event system is not too hard.
Take a look at this

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.
time for a new avatar :)
