Having issue with things resetting after saving and exiting.

So I made a boulder that you can move from one side but not another. But after saving it and exiting the game the boulder moved back and now I'm stuck. I could just remove the save option temporary. But that would just make the dungeon harder. Any advice?

Shaz remember events script.

Or make the boulder disappear when you leave the dungeon.

Events locations do not save when you save your game, so you will need a script of some sorts so event positions are saved if you want the player to be able to save and not get stuck. Either that or you will have to disable saving like you suggested.

The event locations are saved when you save your game, but the moment you leave the map, they are reset when you come back.

I'm guessing you moved the boulder, went off and did some stuff on another map, and came back to the current map and the boulder is back in its original location - and at some point in all that process you saved and loaded a game. The saving/loading isn't what's caused the problem - it's the leaving the map and returning.

Ok the script works. This would cause big headaches later on in the game when you have to move things from one room to another,etc. Nope. Didn't leave the map. Was just playtesting it.logging in and out. Got stuck. But your script seems to work now. But had to load a new game to test it.Wont work on the games before I added the script.

The other way is to do it with 2 events - have one positioned where the item starts, and one positioned where the item finishes up. When the item is moved, turn on a switch. For the start event, have a second blank page conditioned by the switch. For the first event, just condition the first page by the switch. The choice is whether to use extra events and switches each time, or whether to use a script. With the script you can also save it at in-between positions.
