Set Move Route Issues

I've already asked about this, I thought I got my issues resolved, but I'm still having issues with it. I'm trying to make my character follow a path I've put on the ground...but he won't!! ARGHH!!!! He either stops moving completely or starts going off in a random direction.

I've tried a number of things. Basically, I need him to move down, right, down down down, right...and so on. But nothing works. I've tried making em all part of the same event like this:

Set Move Route [Char1]:
Move Down
Move Right
Move Down
Move Down
Move Down

I've tried making them separate actions:

Set Move Route [char1]:
Move down
Set Move Route [char1]:
Move Right
Set Move Route [char1]:
Move down
Move down

I've also tried using new event pages and self switches for each new one, but that doesn't work either! Any ideas? :(
 
Ahh, I see the problem. You need to add a "Wait for Move's Completion" to the end of the event, or it will loop continuously. Also, using a self-switch or "Erase Event" will prevent it from looping.

(By the way, you can put the "Change Speed: 4" in the same move command as the actual movement.)
