Re: variable help please im about to crack!

If you need variable help, I'll assume you know how to set up the yes/no event asking you to do the quest. First, make a second mode on the questgiver and switch to it on the code if you accept the quest. Using variable X as any variable (you choose), on each monster, you'll need something like this:

Mode 1:
Battle (Monster party with the monster)
Win Loss Branch
Win-
Variable X + 1
Display Off
Loss-
Ending, unless they can live after losing to the monster. In that case, don't forget a heal event!

Use that code on all three monsters. MAKE SURE you make the variable + 1, not = 1. Then you'll have three when you beat three monsters. Talk to your questgiver again, whose mode 2 should look like this:

Variable Control Branch (Variable X)

Variable X < or = 2:
Display Message: "You haven't kill enough monsters yet!"

Variable X = 3:
Display Message: "Thank you for killing those monsters!"
Followed by whatever else you want.

That work?

He means display off that event. If you display off an invisible event, it won't reactivate.

Very handy in reducing memory and not having to add extra modes.
