Can't walk over no-graphic events

[Starky]

Hi everyone, in RPG Maker XP I have an event that involves a lot of my characters moving, some of which get killed in the scene, so I change their graphic to nothing. But then I have one of the characters stepping onto the same spot that the person killed was, but it won't allow it, and he just stops moving. I tried going into the one that's moving and clicking "Always on top".
Anyone know what I can do?

Well I assume (Not tried this) that you could delete the event once the character "dies" since it'll still make it invisible, but as far as I know, events can never overlap each other, so maybe that's why?

If this is true, then what you'll have to do, is make a switch saying like "character dead" (You can name it anything really), and once the player "dies", you can turn it on. Now, in the character that dies event, on the left you have the conditions, add the switch into the conditions, and then in the event commands area, just add an "Erase Event", it's on the left, near the bottom on the first page.

Try that and see how it goes, again I'm not 100% sure since I've not done it myself though...

Oh, and this is assuming your chararcter that dies doesn't have anything inside its event command list, and is being controlled by a seperate event (That's how I do it, so you have a lot of characters with blank event sheets on a map, and an invisible one somewhere in the corner that controls them all)

Just tried it, it doesn't work. So I just changed the movements of my characters. Thanks for the help though

The "Always on TOP" (Hehe)does is makes that event the highest "Map Priority".
(which will not help you at all.)


Try the "Through" check box?

if it's already part of an event, do this...

- Left click, open "Set move route."
(Make sure the thing selected is changed from "Player" to the event you want to walk over.)

- click the button that says "Through ON"

and that is it... Try that, and see if it works...
