Floor switch to open jail door. (Resolved)

[KDawg08]

Ok i've already asked for help on something so i'm not expecting any immediate response.

I tried searching with the search button for a tutorial on this but could not find one.

I added a switch on the floor (Floor tile switch from the proper spritesheet) and a jail door(spritesheet) both premade. on my jail bars.

i am trying to find out how to make it so that when u step on the proper floorboard it animates the floor board going down (as it has the 4 different layers of that floor piece via the character sheet or whatever came with rmxp)

After stepping on that floorboard i basically want it to SHOW that it was stepped on, and slide the jail door open. is there a way someone can show me how to do this?

Here is 3 pictures of my map and the pieces i used.

Set your Jail Unlocker event to Player Touch, and from that turn the Switch: Open Door ON.

• After that command put in Self Switch A: ON
• Create a new event page (Parallel Process) with the precondition of (if) Self Switch A is ON.
  For the graphic on this page, change the floor tile to a different frame.
  Put in a Wait 4 Frames command, and turn Self Switch B ON
• Make a new event page (Parallel Process) with the precondition of (if) Self Switch B is ON, and repeat.

On your door, it's the exact same thing, and just a matter of setting an extra precondition (in this case it would be (if) Switch: Open Door is ON). But don't forget to set the open door page to 'Through'

is there a way to add more than 4 self switches? like to change the system into adding say... 10 self switches for example? not for anything like this but if i had something to use it for like... a quest guy who does all your questing and each time u complete one u talk to him and go to next switch etc.

No. There are only 4 self switches. For your floor switches, If you want to conserve the self switches, I recommend using a Move Route to change the frames, rather than self switches.

You can add a lot of event pages tho, and you have as many regular switches as you want, for those.
