Title: RM2k3: Problems with Parallel Process Events
Post by: Demonic Angel on February 17, 2008, 09:25:22 PM

Well, I tried to figure this out on my own, but it just won't work this time. In general I know how to make an event occur only once. I have no problem emptying treasure chests just one time or making a visible monster disappear for good, but my intro which will only run automatically if I put it at parallel process won't go away. Every time I try re-entering the first room of the game, it starts up the intro again and I don't know what to do. I tried the same event switch I used on treasures and stuff, but that just won't work.

So my question is... How do you keep a parallel process from repeating every time you enter the room its in?

Just make a new page of the event and give it the commands "erase event", then make sure that it only activates if "Switch: Intro" is ON.

And simply make the first page of the event(where all the intro commands are) have the "Turn switch: Intro" ON.

If that doesn't work then try it the other way around. Never had a problem with this though.

Okay, I tried the first way, but I'll try the reverse now, Thanks.

EDIT: YES!!! After looking at your advice one more time and then looking at the event page I noticed there was one small thing I did differently. Once I took that out it worked perfectly! ^___^ Thank you SO much, it was a real big help! I'd probably be trying to do something else entirely right now otherwise. ^^;
