[Resolved] Summoning with Common Events

[Stardust]

I've been using common events for a summon/dismiss skill in my game, but a problem appears.  The second time something has been summoned, the graphic for the character won't appear.

EX:
Summon CreatureA - Everything is OK
Release CreatureA - Everything is OK
Summon CreatureA Again - Battler graphic doesn't appear

I wasn't sure if this is a scripting error or was something that can be fixed with events, so I put it here.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

Spoiler: Summon/Dismiss Common Event

@>Conditional Branch: [CreatureA] is in the party
  @>Change Party Member: Remove [CreatureA]
  @>Control Switches: [001: Summoning] = OFF
:  Else
  @>Conditional Branch: Switch [001: Summoning] == OFF
      @>Text: CreatureA:
      :        :  Roar!
      @>Change Party Member: Add [CreatureA]
      @>Control Switches: [001: Summoning] = ON
      @>Exit Event Processing
      @>
  :  Else
      @>Text: You can only have one summon out at a time.

Well, you've made a mistake in your code.
You don't actually even need the switch, I think.
Try this:

Spoiler: code

@>Conditional Branch: [CreatureA] is in the party
  @>Change Party Member: Remove [CreatureA]
  :Else
    @>Text: CreatureA:
    :        :  Roar!
      @>Change Party Member: Add [CreatureA]
Branch End

Let me know if that works for you.

I use the switch so that the player can't summon more than one creature at a time.  It's a switch which would be found in all of the summoning common events.  Your version does work, but I usually have multiple creatures for a summoner.

Hm . . . bump . . .

Hmm... that is a weird glitch... I just tested it and you're right, the battler is summoned but his graphic doesn't show...
