switch not working

[RolandGAMES]

Hey,


so I wanted to programm a cutscene where a car is driving and the character is getting out of it.


At first, the player has the car sprite and is running across the street.


I wanted to blend out the screen, change the actor sprite, activate an switch which makes an clear event to change to the standing car and then blend the screen in again.


But somehow, even if I got the extra page and the condition of the switch activated, the car is always showing up, even if the switch isn't activated yet.


Can somebody help me?


(I am german, sorry if my english is not that good)

Please post a screenshot of your event.


we can't tell what you did wrong without seeing what you did, and there are several possibilities (most new users don't understand how page priority works for example, or it could be a wrong logic switch sequence or several other things)

My programm is german, I am afraid you won't understand much

When you give screenshots, please use Alt+PrintScreen to capture the whole window, and don't crop anything away (you've removed the slider bar on the right of your start event's tab 1, so we can't see if that's at the start or the end of the event), and post them as individual images rather than combining them, as combining them reduces the size and makes it difficult to read the commands.


Also, Andar is German so would have no trouble reading those events


My money is on: you've used a script and haven't gone through and checked what switches/variables it uses, and reserved those so you don't accidentally use them for something else, and your script uses switch 1 and turns it on by default.

I changed the switch to 10 to make sure that there are more switches already used and now it works!


Thank you so much!

You still need to go through your plugins and see what variables/switches they use, and then go into a Control Variables/Control Switches command and name them so you don't accidentally do the same thing later, AND to ensure you don't have several plugins using the same switches/variables.
