SOLVED! Drunk or confused movement. SOLVED!

[figment68]

I was attempting to make it so that when the player is drunk or confused the directional movement of the player is altered but when the player is sober then directional movement returns to normal. So if the player is drunk then when left button is pushed the player moves up, when up button is pushed the player moves down, and so forth making a very confused movement but when player is not drunk then the movent returns to the default such as when up button pushed the player moves up etc. I used a common event set to parallel and with a condition switch.

This works fine as far as causing the altered movement to happen when the drunk switch is on, but when I turn the drunk switch off instead of reverting back to the default movement the player doesn't move at all. Is there a process that I need to include that would revert the players movement back to the default movement? I have a demo if that would help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE! Problem solved below and here is the finished demo...

Well I have no idea why but for some reason it does work if you use an invisible event to turn of the switch. (Without a charset)
Hope this works for you too!

In the common event move routes select "Ignore when can't move". If you don't the program will just keep trying to move past the event when it can't.
The "When button is pressed" option is very sensitive, when you press a direction once it'll actually moves you twice. You can put in a short wait, like 2 frames, after the move route to slow it down.

Rutabaga, I owe you a big thank you. You pointed out the simple over site that I had made. Works like a charm now! This explains why it worked with an invisible event as well. And great advice on the wait to slow down movement. :thumb:
I will edit post as solved and supply finished demo as well in first post.
