Is there a best practice or good root object to use for copying an event off the map during loading, then recreating all the data needed to insert a new event during gameplay or even map loading?
My goal is to be able to, during the map data loading done in Game_Map.prototype.data function:
1 - grab some events the user made in the editor, by name (I got this part, I think).
2 - put these events back into the game just after modding the map data, but before the game runs the map. I don't understand what the engine does with events and characters during the map scene for this part.
I've tried copying $dataMap.events to an array using JsonEx.makeDeepCopy($dataMap.events);
But when I put them into the gameMap object with $gameMap._events[next_id]=JsonEx.makeDeepCopy(dg_events[2]);
I get a terrible crash saying:
In other words, that does not appear to be the object it's expecting there.
Does anyone know the object I should be copying or replacing into to make this work? I'm having hell using the debugger and javascript code to figure out how this is working under the hood during a map display loop, or what object/function I should be "loading" my copied event data into. Any event programmers here who know this better then me?

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
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.
