Recently picked up rgpmaker vx ace on steam during the summer sale. I've been trying to figure it out so I'm not familiar with the software. I was working on events and switches. I wanted to set up an event that when the player "uses" a crystal text would pop up. It should look like this...



I thought it worked but apparently crystals change color depending on the side you use it on.







Since I'm just starting I don't know if this is supposed to happen with crystals, is this just something they do? I tried this using a blue orb too except it turns red whenever it's used. Unless there's something in the event I am supposed to change I can't image what I did to cause it. This is the event...



The crystal goes back to normal when the text goes away so it seems like it has to do with the event but how can i get it to not change while text is on the screen?

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

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.
