[SOLVED]How can I call a common event during battle

[SqLeon]

I want to use a common event during battle by the use of a skill but I don't want it to happen everythime the skill is used in a battle. HELP! :sad: (Using VX)....... I also need help with something else involving skill points but i dunno if i should start a new topic or just ask now.

What circumstances do you want it to activate under? Specific battles? Random chance? Phase of the moon?

 

[SqLeon]

I want it to activate right when i use the skill. What the skill does is switch party members. So as soon as the new player comes in the text starts to show a convorsation between the new actor and the enemy.

Try using switches. Have the common event check whether or not a certain switch is on, and following that whether or not to use your text/conversation.
If you want it to happen once per battle, just make sure it resets to OFF after the battle.
