How to have two boats on one map?

[PhoenixX92]

How do I go about putting a boat down in two areas on the same map?

I have two closed in bodies of water, and I'd like to be able to have a different one in each place.



Just an example picture there, the bodies of water would be completely separated from the deep waters, so the same boat nor the ship can access the second body of shallow water.

How do I go about getting the boat in two places without having to use an event to move it out of the first body of water, and make it spawn in a second one?

There seems to be no option to add a second boat, so I'm clueless on how to go forwards with this.

You don't need a script for that.

You can change either the ship/boat graphic via eventing only.

So simply put a ship and a boat and change the ship's picture to boat.

You can change the position of the vehicles via eventing too. So you can easily set up the ship (changing the graphic back) else where when you need it.

edit:

if you need to make the ship works 100% like the boat, you will need a small script edit.

that is, only if you agree to use ship as boat. i can do a quick script for you to interchange boat and script passage check if you want, even make it switch-able using a game switch.

edit again:

Done. Set the switch ID in the script and turn it on/off in the game. On = Boat, Off = Ship

Now see, that's the issue... I actually need both the ship and the boat.The ship for deep waters that go from continent to continent, and the boats simply to traverse shallow waters that are enclosed in other continents.

I mean, I guess I could surround the bodies of water with events that call the boat to a dock on the map if there's no other way around it other than using a script.

The script is done in the edited post above, it should allow you to use the ship as boat and change it back to ship easily using a switch to change its passage.

Thank you.
