I must have tried so many times, the hour flew by. Yet I came up with nothing. Somehow even made it a bit worse.
Just PLEASE give me this one.

So my even request is, you talk to this guy in a bar. He also says he wont give you what you want
until the request is done. He says he wants this other guy from outside his bar to leave.
So your characters mission is to make the guy outside, leave. In order to do that you have to give him an item.
You get the item, he leaves, mission is completed, then the guy in the bar thanks you when you tell him you did it.
Then after that he tells you what you want.

Sounded simple for me, but not by a long shot. :aswt2:

On both sides - a switch always needs two parts, the control and what is controlled by it.
I suggest you follow the link to the starting point in my signature and work through the tutorials posted there to learn the basics of switches and variables, you'll never finish any game without that.

yea, I am REALLY confused about that and tbh REALLY getting annoyed. When i think I put a question in the correct forum, I hear that i dont and also dont get my question answered. Im already really stressed on trying to complete the thing I cant complete. This is why I dont do forums. I just asked a group on Facebook and they directed me to this site. Why cant someone just message me or have help in person?

we can help you, and this site is one of the most helpful ones around - but we can't make your game for you.
That means you have to learn the basics yourself, before starting on your game - you have been given the correct help above, but you did not understand it because you're missing the very basics of using the program.

And sorry - you can't learn those basics in five minutes. Most people (unless they are either jobless or in school holidays) usually need to work through the tutorials for a month or so to learn those basics. Only people who already know logic structures and variables from other areas can get the basics faster.

So please take that time to work through the tutorials - I once made a collection of the most important ones, follow the link to the starting point in my signature to get there. Learning the basics will speed up your game development by at least a factor 10 because you won't have to wait as much on the forum for basic questions.

u know how an event has "conditions" section. and can make multiple pages in 1 event.
its just using a combination of 1 changing variable for the condition. and switches if the condition is going to be the same until reach a certain point (as in variable is increased several times)
ie. raise quest variable by 1 every step (get quest is step 1, get told about item is step 2, get item is step 3, giving him the item is step 4, returning to quest giver is step 5)

using a variable is 1 of the easiest ways to track quest progression so that events update with progress.
especially a long quest such as the main story progress.

Edit: after looking at ur other posts thats the main thing ur missing.
always make sure u have the conditions section of an event page filled out correctly

Please give your threads meaningful titles. You have at least two just called "I can't figure out this event". Make the title say WHAT you're trying to do. It makes it easier for people to know, quickly, whether they can help you or not, and to find the thread if they have to come back to respond after initially reading it.

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?
