Here is the script he is using. Next time you should really add more detail in your request and maybe post the script yourself. :thumb:

#==============================================================================

# ** Modules.Event Spawner (2.2)                              By SephirothSpawn

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# * Description :

#

#   This script was designed to allow you to create events via scripts. It

#   will create events immeditately, and can save created events perm. on the

#   map after creation, or appear once. You can also clone events, performing

#   modifications via Event Spawner module, or immeditely end the clone

#   event process and move the new event to a position.

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# * Instructions :

#

#   THIS SCRIPT IS COMPLEX!!! I TOOK HOURS OF COMMENTING, RUNNING THROUGH

#   ALL EVENT CODES & PARAMETERS (600+ LINES), AND MAKING THIS SCRIPT EASIER

#   TO USE. PLEASE READ THE CREATION & EVENT COMMAND CODES & PARAMETERS

#   BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT!

#

#   If you are ever unsure of a event layout, insert this at the top of event

#   commands

#

#   Call Script :

#

#     for event_command in $game_map.events[event_id].list

#       p [event_command.code, event_command.parameters, event_command.indent]

#     end

#

#   Write down the code, parameters & indention, and use the add event command

#   function to create event commands.

#

#   To see instructions on creating events, refer to creation instrucitons.

#   To see event command codes & parameters, refer to event command c & p.

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# * Making Events Without Huge Call Scripts :

#

#   This script has a built-in sub-module that will create events with a

#   simple 1-line call script, rather than creating a 15 line call script.

#

#   To create a simple event spawn, search for the Presets module, directly

#   below the Event_Spawner module heading.

#

#   Create a method name, which should match the event you are creating. For

#   example; if you were creating a event on your map that will show a simple

#   text message, you can use a name such as

#

#   def self.sample_event_text

#

#   Make sure to put the self. in from of your method name, or it will not

#   read the method and you will have an error.

#

#   Basic Syntax For Method Naming

#

#     def self.<event_name>

#

#   Feel free to use method arguments as well (If you don't understand this,

#   do not worry about it)

#

#

#   Once your method is defined, you can now put what you would put in your

#   call script here in the method name.

#

#   Finish you method by adding a end and you are finished.

#

#

#   Example Preset Event:

#

#    def self.sample_event_a

#      Event_Spawner.create_event(3, 5, 'Sample Event A')

#      Event_Spawner.set_page_graphic({'c_name' => '002-Fighter02'})

#      Event_Spawner.add_event_command(101, ['I am a spawned event'])

#      Event_Spawner.end_event

#    end

#

#   ~ Creates an event at 3, 5 named Sample Event A

#   ~ Sets 1st Page Graphic Character Name to 002-Fighter02

#   ~ Creates Event Command : Show Message (Code 101)

#   ~ Ends Event

#

#   To call your event preset, use

#

#   Event_Spawner.Presets.<method_name>

#

#   (This Basically Serves as nothing more than call scripts in the script

#    itself, rather than the events.)

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, at the beginning of the script, Seph WARNS you that it is complex. Maybe you should read all of the stuff at the top with a hash(#) to the left of it? Seph put that stuff there for a reason. Seph is a great scripter and made it as easy as he could for you to understand. Please at least try to understand it.

 

[aram]

dude i don't have a clue on how to do this, he didn't mention anything about where i need to put the script.
i understand what i need to write ,but not where

 

[JoshieBoy]

You go into the script editor, Scroll down until you see the script called "main," press the insert key on your keyboard, name the new section whatever you want, and copy and paste the entire script into the new section. ALWAYS post above main and below everything else UNLESS a scripter gives instructions to do other wise.

Or if you want something more, I suggest you read this:

viewtopic.php?t=45896.0

 

[SephirothSpawn]

Post a screen of the event editor of an example event. I'll explain how to make the same event with the event spawner.

 

[aram]

how do i make that event whit the event spawner??

 

[SephirothSpawn]

Event_Spawner.create_event(x, y, 'Demon \e[1]')

Event_Spawner.end_event

 

[aram]

where am supposed to write the script?
on a event or the script editor?

 

[Kain Nobel]

The Event_Spawner... very useful tool, can be tricky especially for a non-scripter to get into (I'm hoping you've read the instructions Seph left for you in the script's comments)

Step 1 : Installing the Event_Spawner

First thing you want to do, if you haven't got this far, is install the Event_Spawner. There is at least one script from the MACL that I believe this system depends on, and that is RGSS.Map. It has methods such as .add_character/event, .delete_character/event, etc. Place RGSS.Map in your script editor, THEN place Modules.Event_Spawner somewhere below it (try to be organized)

As example, here is a visual reference of how the order should look...

Spoiler

Scene_Debug
-----------------------
SDK (if using)
-----------------------
RGSS.Map
Modules.Event_Spawner
-----------------------
(other scripts here...)
-----------------------
main

There might be other MACL requirements, but I believe that is all you need is those two scripts and you're good to go.

Step 2 : Creating a brand new event

Okay, creating events via call script is a pain in the ass (due to the size restraints of the Call Script box), so you're going to turn into a scripter for a second... Insert a new blank script somewhere appropriate below the Event_Spawner, this page will be deticated to whatever kind of Events you want to create.

Now, in this new BLANK page in our script editor, we're going to open the Event_Spawner module again and begin *scripting* our new event that we want to be able to create on the fly.

module Event_Spawner

  #...we'll be adding the method in a second

end

Cool, now we're ready... what kind of event shall we start off with?

Part 3 : Creating an Event (Example)

Okay, you've finished the last step in Part 2 and reopened the Event_Spawner module in a new page in our Script Editor, what next? Lets make our first EVENT! In this example, I'm going to create a very generic event. If you know nothing about scripting, this could actually be a good practice for you on learning basic Object Oriented principals (or at least how to use methods/arguments).

Remember how Seph showed you to create your basic, do-nothing (yet) event? Well, we're going to write a method into the actual Event_Spawner module to create an event...

module Event_Spawner

  def self.my_event(x, y)

    create_event(x, y, "My Event")

    end_event

  end

end

Note how def self.my_event(x, y), again you're using X, Y as the arguments? This is still used to determine the X/Y coords the event will spawn. We can mix this up a little bit and randomize the spot the event will appear each time, but I'll show you that later if I have time. BUT lets give this event a graphic first, and make it talk... we're gonna further modify the method just written.

module Event_Spawner

  def self.my_event(x, y)

    create_event(x, y, "My Event")

    set_page_graphic({'c_name' => "001-Fighter01"})

    add_event_command(101, ["Hello, my name is Aluxes, nice to", "meet you..."])

    end_event

  end

end

Part 4 : Understanding What We Just Did

Notice how on this line...

add_event_command(101, ["Hello, my name is Aluxes, nice to", "meet you..."])

...The text is written INSIDE an array (inside a []) using a string then we use a comma (,) to seperate the message into two strings? This means that the second string will be used in the second line of the text box. The very first argument is 101, which the Interpreter recognizes as the Show Text event command, the second argument is an Array (container) with 2 Strings (text). You can look at Interpreter 2 to see how the commands are all organized by numeric code, but you're just as well off just reading the instructions of the Event_Spawner to see what these numeric codes are for each event command, and how to call them through script.

Part 5 : Calling our Event

*Whew* We've got all the brainwork out of the way, it was pretty simple though wasn't it? Did you understand everything (or most of it) so far? Cool, now we need to know how to call this event on the map. What we're going to do is create a new event on a map, assuming you know you're eventing lets go to the last page of event commands, to the last command "Call Script" and type this in...

Event_Spawner.my_event(0, 0)

...and you've just spawned that event in the upper-left most corner of the map (if everything went right).

thanks i understand the whole thing now. :biggrin:
