I want to know how I can make two events on the same character. I want to make my character be sent to a village as a request from the characters mom. But after the character returns, the mom is found dead and character reacts....etc. Can anyone help me do that?

You can make 2 pages of the event "mother". The one when she's alive will be the left one. She will give you the quest, and blablabla.

Then, you go to your village. When you have done what you have to do, it actives a switch. The second page of the "mother" event, which is the right one, will have as condition to exist "switch = ON". Because this switch have been set to ON in the village, the second page of the "mother" event will appear instead of the first one (because when there is more than one page of event, it's readed right to left : and the first which meet the requirements to exist will happen).

OK I'm really freaking confused. Is there a better way to explain what inblast said? Like I understand more or less what he said but I don't exactly understand the page thing. I know what a page is but its hard to understand how to make it activate AFTER the village. Like how would the switch know its after and not before?

And how do I only make it activate after the player finished the quest and noty just re-enter the house?

Every page on an event has conditions - if you make one condition a switch that is on, that page can only activate when you as the game maker control that switch on.


However, if you have that much problems with event pages and switches, then I suggest you stop working on your game for about a month and make a temporary tutorial project where you work through the tutorials linked in my starting point (see signature).


Yes, it will take about a month on average to work through those tutorials in such a way that you really learn what they're about.


But that is something that is absolutely neccessary, because switches and event pages are the most basic elements for anything more complex than a "go there" quest, and you need to learn how to handle them to be able to complete your own game.


You simply cannot make a game without understanding those basics.

Arï, please avoid double posting, as it is against the forum rules. You can review our forum rules here. Thank you.


Please just edit your post.


Take a look at the beginner tutorial from Andar in my signature (you were also given a link above to it, but apparently haven't looked at it).


You REALLY need to understand how to do this well, because your entire game will be made in this way. I strongly suggest you stop right now and go through it. Having someone tell you want to do is not helping you learn, and you will be coming back again next time you have a similar question.


Also, please give your threads meaningful titles. "Events" tells us absolutely nothing about what you're trying to do or the problem you're having. Please make your thread titles convey at least a bit of an idea of the problem or the goal.

This is the event creating screen. You can see the pages 1, 2 and 3 i created, just below the event name. To create a new one, click on the equivalent of "Nouveau Page Ev."

And don't forget, the best way to learn is to try and fail !

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
