    Confused, please help

    Ok, this might be confusing. I'll tell you what I WANT to happen, what DOES happen, and HOW I got that to happen.

    1. I WANT to talk to a girl. Some dialogue takes place, then I fight 2 thieves. They disappear and more dialogue. A 3rd bandit appears and *kills* her. She dissapears, more dialogue, fight him. He says some dying words then dissapears. My guy talks to himself and there's a little storytelling. When I go to leave town, there's 3 more thieves, and one's a boss. I HAVE to lose the battle, some dialogue, then an ally comes in and kills them and they disappear.

    2. It all works upto the point of where I leave town. Instead of appearing at the exit, they just reappear at the places I made them disappear from (behind the girl) and then nothing happens.

    3. It's all setup on the woman. The dialogue that turns into a battle. The dialogue after, where she dies before another battle, and then the 3 thieves reappearing. I set the 2nd battle to a win/lose branch. I lose, Game Over. I win, thief talks, display off, then it modifies all 3 thieve's modes to number 2, which is set to warp them to the exit and then start the battle once I go over to them. I also turn their displays back on, but that is after their modes are modified and they should be over at the exit.

    So basically, I need 3 guys to disappear, then warp to another place and reappear with new event coding.

    You should get out more.

    Sorry, I'm a sarcaleptic (I have uncontrollable bouts of Sarcasm).

    Anyway... Have you tried simply using the Event Display Off command followed by the Event Move command, then turning the display back on all in mode one?

    The screen display is tricky when changing modes.

    You need to use the refresh display command.

    I have not had time to experiment with this command because I found it works as suggested above.

    I hope that helps.

    Peace.

    MOO!

      It didn't work.

      I did as you suggested, but it moved me instead of him, and his display didn't turn back on. I may have just made a mistake and forgotten something though.

      Could you show me what the event code should look like please?

        The good news
        is you aren't really confused

        Bad News
        You can’t warp non player characters

        So your going to have to make two sets of thieves in the people section for a total of six instead of three.

        Hence the big section on reusing multiple people

          I could have sworn I had this working...

          I guess I was wrong. I could not duplicate what I thought I did.

          Apologies.

          I guess I either dreamed it or The Universe has changed and it is now impossible. Or I was just mistaken...

          Nah, it must be The Universe!

          Sorry if I confused you.

          Peace.

          MOO!

            You can't run any event scripts on the same event after "warp" too, so be careful with that.
