Re: chigoo's help files

how can i make my char move at 8x speed with out veicle?

[Dungeon Warden]

Re: chigoo's help files

Set the movement speed to 1 F.

In RPG Maker 2, Normal speed is 8 F per tile. 30 F = 1 Second, so at normal speed the character can cover about 4 tiles per second. Half speed is 16 F or two tiles per second. Double speed is 4 F or 8 tiles per second and 8 X speed = 1 F or 30 tiles per second! Since you must use whole numbers there is no speed faster then 8 X speed.

Note that you can only increase speed within the movement commands. You can't change the movement of the party during regular play except by pressing O to get double speed.

Re: chigoo's help files

os thir a script that i can change to make the O button 8x speed

Re: chigoo's help files

A repeat enter map script checks button input=O to deploy 8X speed invisible vehicle? Toggle this with a flag that's reversed when O's pressed.
Not sure if that'll work, but go mess with invisible vehciles, they're essential in my game, where content and action scripts run together.

Also, when you use control vehicle, apply it together with a content script call, and then you can keep on doing whatever you wanted to do with content scripts.

Re: chigoo's help files

Is there a script that I can change to make the O button 8x speed

No there isn't. Why would you want there to be? 8X speed is uncontrollably fast.

Besides the vehicle trick (which disrupts all button presses), you can set up an custom condition with an indirect effect that causes the party to move faster when the direction pad is pressed (note this won't work with the control stick).

If you could tell me why you want the party to move faster, I might be able to come up with a solution that will work better for what you're trying to do.

Re: chigoo's help files

But, doesn't it mess up the map loading if you press a button/use control stick and move while you're already being forced to move via script command?

It might not be a problem outside map levels, but the map loading gets off the screen in no time when you move from default movement at the same time a script command is moving you.
I'm using an event to block movement in my game to prevent this, since I want to have any frame speed of movement possible, as well as turning while moving for sliding and different levels of vehicle control depending on your stats.
Also, button presses for constant movement are just toggling turn left, right, and accelerate on and off, so you can still keep moving smoothly even with the button disruption in my game. But, it probably isn't a problem since you'd only be pressing O at certain times, so the button disruption isn't going to cause problems.

Re: chigoo's help files

i dosent move me i have complet control i just use the horse script but i changed the modle so when i use the item i appears and i can enter it is just vehicle that follow you around invisabley untile you get and use the item
then it appears and you can go in it

[Dungeon Warden]

Re: chigoo's help files

Why does it need to be invisible and following you? Wouldn't it be easier to use something like the magic travel cloud (one of the preset items) that creates a vehicle under the party when you use it? I forget the actual name, but you start the preset game with it.

Re: chigoo's help files

Assuming you have your character riding the vehicle, and if I understand what you're asking, you should try the following commands within the event's content script:

* Party: Display: Hide Party
* Event Effects: Object Model Change [VEHICLE MODEL]

The event effects command will then allow you to change said event into whichever model you've made already. Prior to this change, the event would be invisible.

Depending on what you want, I found it easier to do this rather than making a visible event, then making it invisible with the event display off command via another script (intro script or what not), then making it visible again when desired.

Once you've exited the vehicle, just reverse the commands:

* Party: Display: Display Party
* Event Effects: Object Model Change [INVISIBLE VEHICLE MODEL]

EDIT

Then again, I supposed you could use the event display commands...

* Party: Display: Hide Party
* Event Effects: Display On

* Party: Display: Display Party
* Event Effects: Display Off

Just remember, as I touched on, the event will always start in it's default, visible state, then would need to be changed to invisible before the player could see it, via a intro script. Doing this, however, requires an additional command:

* Event Control: Change: [VEHICLE MODEL]
Then...
* Event Effects: Display Off

Hope this helps.

i have every thing all i need is to get the event to follow me while invisable
