RPG Maker Forums

This is my first post here, and before I start I want to say thank you to the community.  Like many here I picked RMVX Ace up during the Steam sale, and I have been able to find most of the answers I need by doing a quick search, but I haven't been able to find this one.

I am trying to create an opening cutscene for my game, and I have been pretty close to successful.  Basically what I have is a boat pulling up to a dock with some scrolling text to start the story, followed by a person getting off the boat and walking a step with a little bit more scroling text.  I want this to be followed by a short dialogue and then the boat sailing away.  It is working great, except for one thing: the scrolling text from the boat pulling up repeats itself after the second set of text, before moving on to the dialgue.  Here is what I have right now:

Here is the start of the cutscene (the part that repeats):



And here is the second event:



And finally the return to the first event to trigger the dialogue:



Here is the last screen of the first event:



And the second event:



Obviously I am pretty new and am trying to do this without scripting for the moment, and I don't think what I am trying to do requires one, but I was wondering if anyone had any input. 

Also, these screenshots seem really large, I will try to make them smaller if I have to post again.  Thanks for any input anyone has!

EDIT: Thanks for the input, Andar.... I added the final two screen shots to try to help, and I will work on making them all in one event.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

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.
