ive done my hardest to playtest all the bugs out. so far it is working amazing for me. but i know there are a few things i did wrong. namely i know i messed up Sprite_Cursor's viewport(i did what i did to remove the extra cursor it seemed to be creating), my method text in Window_Map might also be done wrong, to be honnest im not sure. im sure i made a more errors in my Main_Window_Map and New_Scene_Map :) other then that i know some of my comments need updating i will do that before release(most of the comment errors are due to recomondations that i change the names of classes. anyways here is the code.

thanks for any advice, and i wont cry over harse advice, i know im still learning, will upload demo if any wants to see it in action without making all their own graphics.

guess thats a no...np anyways i put it in the play test version of my demo and none of the errors that were mentioned were related to this script. :) if u dont mind though i do have one more question. how would you guys go about making it so you can go to different sub sections of each town? the way i would go is simply open up a window with the choices(market, home, post office, eta) but that wont please most people who use this script and i want it to be really useful(to everyone), not another useless script from me. so the next way i would do it is change the background and draw the new coords of all the places you can go....but its not that simple. i cant just reuse the scene...it will only draw the normal stuff...and if i simply make a new scene i will need a new window class too(because thats where ive been putting all my methods that do math and check whats unlocked) i dont think users want alot of code to copy from demo to their project(tho this could be a useless worry, you tell me). plus i would have to do stuff like this:
Code: 
#i know this is dumb code, but something like this

if Map_Items::Towns[@pindex.upper_level].switch == true && Sub_Map::Towns[@pindex].switch == true 

#draw sub_items(another loop lol)

 
or at least i think i would...check to see if the town you choose is valid(even tho it should be from current code) then check whats unlocked in that town to travel too...idk seems like a pain. im more then willing to do it. just want to do it the easy way not the hard way first. cause adding sephs much better data structure took hours cause i had to find and replace all my code. anyways thanks for any advice you can give :)



edit: i have it working!!!! just one little thing that annoys me to fix.
