Full Version: How to Make Common Event?

Hi,


I'm trying to learn how to make common events. I've looked on the internet for a tutorial, but have not found one.
I don't know how to make a trigger for it.

What I am trying to do is make a common event for an item. I want to be able to use the item, and when I use it, it transfers the player to a different world.

How would I make that work?

Thank you,

ShyBlue

Common events are just regular events that can be run from any map. You can get to the common event editor from the next to last tab in the database editor. because they run the same way as regular events there's not much need to explain how to use them. There's 3 options for startup:
none - only runs the common event when it is explicitly called
autorun - will automatically run when a switch is on
parallel process - will automatically run parallel to other events when a switch is on.

To make an item run a common event, there's a little drop-down box next to 'Menu Use SE' that allows you to select which common event that item runs.

Oh, OK. I've got it now!

Thanks again, Night5h4d3. ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME?! LOL jk.

Slowly but surely, I am working this game out.

Hmmm... You haven't found any common event tutorials? Maybe I should make one...

EDIT: I made a tutorial, hopefully it will help people.
