Event Problems? Help De-Bugger tip thing.

We've all made an event and one point and be absolutely stumped at what's wrong with it. Like only the other day I had a problem with map scrolling, but that's when I found this useful event problem solving tip.

It's simple. Before everything that your event does, use the "Show Text" event command to describe what the event is ment to be doing. Whenever you get to the point of the problem, you should be able to find what's causing it, and work around it/repair it.

Hope this helps. :)

It's a good tip that usually works.
The exception is when the bug is due to how several parallel processes work since the Show Text's changes the flow.
In that case I prefer to track progress with variables.
