I have been trying to make an NPC only appear in a cut-scene but only through the means on finding a note after a certain point in the game. There are like no tutorials that I have found that do this and its a little upsetting. I just need to see it once so I can move forward with my game. The scene is this. You go back to the inn and find the note in a pot. then the cut-scene starts up. After you read what it says you need to get out and tell someone what you just read. So then an NPC comes from downstairs and walks to the room you are in. Then you have a battle and then he disappears. I have watched so many tutorials yet I can't seem to find one like this.

If possible I need actual pictures to show me what I am doing wrong.

Please someone help me so I can move forward with my game.

 

 

here is a picture of the scene..  the NPC on the far right by the stairs  and the pot 2 rooms to the left of the NPC is the event.

 

The NPC should be gone until mid cut-scene then after a movement route and battle he should disappear and not reappear..

I also need to make sure he isn't around until the trigger in the cut-scene comes on.

 

No earlier in the game.

There are tutorials for this - you most probably just didn't know what to look for.

This needs the use of switches and multiple event pages, which are the most basic building blocks of any game that contains something more complex than a "go there"-quest, and there are a lot of tutorials on switches (and variables).

I suggest you follow the link to the starting point in my signature, it will guide you to the most important tutorials for this.

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
