Having Two Events Occupy the Same Space

Hey there, I'm fairly new to RPG Maker MV and I had a question about how the events work compared to VX Ace.

I was watching a VX Ace tutorial online where the commentator created a sliding puzzle, where you would slide different boxes over buttons to unlock a gate. When I followed the same tutorial in RPG Maker MV, I was disappointed that the box stopped short of the button and wouldn't proceed. I tried messing with the 'Below Character', 'Same As Character', and 'Above Character' settings, but nothing seemed to work for me. I came to the conclusion that two separate events couldn't occupy the same space at any given time, and I tested this theory by trying to slide the box onto an empty Event Tile. It stopped short.

So, my question is: How did the commentator get the box to slide over the pressed-down button event? Was such a thing possible in previous versions? Thanks.

You would need to set one of the events to THROUGH. Events cannot occupy the same space, regardless of their priority, unless one of them is set to THROUGH.


This was the same in Ace, so I suspect you missed the bit in the tutorial video where it said to do that (or they did it but didn't really point out what they were doing).

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
