Help Passing behind buildings.

[KitsuneKokuen]

I've built a map that's a modern city and one thing that I find unacceptable is that I can't find a way to have the character pass behind tiles that should be in the air, such as the top half of a sky scraper. I've looked through various forums and search results and haven't been able to get any solution. Any help is appreciated, Thank you.

There's a passage script somewhere that allows you to map regions to make them passable. As well as special cases like going under bridges and going behind stuff.

Edit: Here it is. Covers/Slopes/Bridges

Is it a built in script or do i need to download it?

Same way you insert any new custom script. Below Materials and above Main, copy/paste. The instructions will let you assign what region IDs to look for, and you add those regions onto your maps where needed using the map Editor.

Neon Black wrote a script that lets you set certain tiles as being in front of the player - it's called Terrain Tags, but it actually uses Regions.

Where do I download the script? (I'm new to the RPG Maker community)

The script is right on the page me and Shaz linked you to. There's a link there for either PasteBin (just the script) or MediaFire (for a demo)

If you give it a go and have problems, either post in the thread for that script, or start a new thread in the RGSSx Script Support forum, making sure you provide a link to that thread so anyone helping you has quick access to the script.


Good luck
