Move Routes for Large Sprites

I'm a super-novice with this program, and I'm trying to figure out how to make a big piano follow me around. I know how to make an event follow me, but how do I make it so that the entire piano, which is 3x2 squares, acts as one event?

Put the piano into a character sheet and use it in an event, rather than using the tileset.

Not 100% sure how to do that.  Sorry, first time trying to use this program

You'd need an external program that manipulates images, such as Photoshop, GIMP or Paint.NET, and be sure to have the correct size for the characterset.


So if your piano is 64 pixels wide, and 64 pixels tall as well, you need to multiply the width by 3, and the length by 4, to get the correct dimensions for the characterset (sprites are divided in 12 cells, hence the 3x4 dimensions). So your end image would be 192 x 256 pixels. You align the piano in one of the cells, or put them in all of them if you'd like.
