Saying what area you'r in when you walk into a new one

[mrslayer]

I know there is a way to make it say what area you are in based on the map ID but i can't figuer out how to use the script

class Game_Map    

  def name

     $map_infos[@map_id]

  end   

end

And make it say the name of the map when you enter a new area. No i do not just want to make a text box open up and say VILLIAGE so dont suggest doing that. Or should i make it so a picture pop's up at the top corner saying what area.The problum with that is you have to wait till it goes away to walk so if there is a way around that please let me know.

Thank's

No need for a scirpt. Put in every map a paraler event that either shows a picture or text. use the delete event command. W/E you want.
Although if you want something special you can just use the search function.

Possible with a location variable as well in case the person means areas and not maps. For instance, Quiremirk Swamp is ten maps, you may not want the picture to come up every map transition, but only when you enter the area from either the beginning or the end. So an X/Y variable on the par. process event would make sure that only when entering from a single point would trigger the area name.

Mog's scripts are pretty good. ^^
