I am trying to change the overlay when a certain condition is met. When I used the debug mode to enable the condition the overlay didn't change. I will attach some screenshots of editor and the folder where it is getting the images.

some plugins react badly if they are given a command sixty times per second - and that is exactly what your event does. I suggest you rewrite it so that it gives the command only once, and then check if that solves the problem.

I added an Erase Event command at the end of the event and simplifed the condition. It still doesn't work.

then you need to go systematic bughunting, and I don't know that plugin to give specific help.
here are three general suggestions:

1) test the functions with direct action button events - the problem might not be in the commands but in the triggering if for example that switch doesn't work. Having a temporary NPC make the command when the player goes there will make sure the commands themselves work.

2) post a screenshot of your plugin manager - it might be that a different plugin or a wrong order of plugins broke the function

3) if testing events and you are not sure if they work, always add a show text to the critical part so that you know the event is triggered. And if you have multipage events or erasing events, always give each part a different sprite so that you can check which event pages are active or if the event has already been erased or is still there (difficult to see with an invisible event)

I tried all the things you suggested and it didn't work. I decided I would make a separate map of the changed map since it will be using a different set of events.

Anyways, thanks for you help .

of course not - none of the three points I suggested in my last post was a solution, so it's absolutely impossible that anyone of them makes this work.

What I suggested were things to do to get the info needed to find the cause, so you should have posted the results and the screenshots here for you to get the next steps to finding the cause.

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?
