RPG Maker Forums
Hi everyone,
I think this could be a bug, but my forum search didn't find anything so I thought I'd double check first.
I'm currently trying to set up a World Map. As auto-tiles have so few frames of animation in RMMV, I had to find a way around it for my water animation. To do so, I used a Fixed Parallax background (this means that it doesn't scroll with the map). I did this by adding an exclamation mark (!) to the start of my parallax background's file name, and it works perfectly.
Being a World Map, I also need the edges of the map to loop (like a real globe would work), so that the player doesn't run up against the edge of the screen. To achieve this, I used the Scroll Type map setting and set it to Loop Both. This does work very well - the map loops correctly when I cross over the edge of the screen. However, RMMV must get its wires crossed, as this setting also makes my Parallax background start scrolling with the player's movement - which naturally doesn't look right at all.
So in short, the Scroll Type setting makes a Fixed Parallax background scroll, overriding the exclamation mark setting described above. Is this a bug? Or is there a way around this? If it's the former, I'll report it on the Improvements board, however I'd love to know if anyone has any ideas.
Thanks for reading!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
