Alright, people! This should be my last question for a while (hopefully)

1. How would I be able to tell if the player has contacted with an event?
 
You could trigger the event by the player touch trigger inside the event page. When that is selected the event runs through it's commands whenever the player walks into the it.

Code:
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Same Position Starting Determinant
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def check_event_trigger_here(triggers)
    result = false
    # If event is running
    if $game_system.map_interpreter.running?
      return result
    end
    # All event loops
    for event in $game_map.events.values
      # If event coordinates and triggers are consistent
      if event.x == @x and event.y == @y and triggers.include?(event.trigger)
        # If starting determinant is same position event (other than jumping)
        if not event.jumping? and event.over_trigger?
          event.start
          result = true
        end
      end
    end
    return result

    new_x = @x + (@direction == 6 ? 1 : @direction == 4 ? -1 : 0)
