Everytime I try to get my event to go into battle it stops?

[Rain29]

so the story has an event of my character finding a thing.  The thing gets eaten by a slime and a battle inicates.  But everytime I try test it the battle just stops after the introducing of the monster screen.  and gets out of battle.

here is the event screen for it.  I don't know what im doing wrong. (i attached the file since it won't let me post it on here)

 

[stupid enough to like FF13]

Does the beginning of the event removes all of your party members? If so, the error is likely that you're entering a battle when you have no one in your party.

Remember, you can manipulate the player just as you can an event character for scenes. You can also toggle transparency or player followers, making the party/other members invisible while the event characters are being used and then having them reappear when the scene is over.

Oh that helped but now a new problem comes out, when i make the actors visable for the battle they show up and well makes the scene looks wierd. Since it shows up with the ones i made for the event.   THis is the scene that happans before that battle with the slime happans.

make them INvisible. There is a Change Transparency command (not sure whether this affects the PC and the followers all at the same time - if it doesn't, use the Change Actor Graphic command)

So wait I can make my original party transparent?  so that the scene will have only the copy party on the scene.   i already did change the change actor graphic.

Not sure why you have and "original party" and a "copy party". From that second thumbnail it does look like you have two parties. I believe you should get rid of the "copy party" and stick with JUST the original. Instead of "removing actor from party" (which I assume you do to make them disappear), simply make the "original party" transparent. Then, make them non-transparent when you need to see them again.

I think that is what everyone is trying to tell you.

@greystone

the copy party is technically the party i used for the event so that i could move them as I pleased.  to do it, I removed all the party members and change the actor graphic.  but when i go to the battle scene i have to make the party members come back...  but when i do that, it looks the like the image for a few seconds before the battle starts.

to do it, I removed all the party members and change the actor graphic.

I think you should go back to the tutorials to learn the program before continuing. There is an event command to make the party invisible, specifically for cutscenes where the party is either not present or where the party members are portrayed by events.

And no, don't simply look for that specific command - do yourself a favor and really work through those tutorials, even if it will take you a month.


Because if you do not know of the transparency command, there probably are a lot more commands and basic techniques of RM that you don't know yet.
