Tinkering with the message boxes...

[Blayzeen' Ferrno]

Okay so, an NPC is yelling things and running at the same time; how can I have a message box move with an NPC whilst the NPC is moving (without it stopping the player from moving)? Plus, how can i have a message box show up, and it doesn't stop the player from being able to move?

Could I do this with events or just a basic script???

Sorry if you don't know wtf I'm talking about lol! But its just something that could come in useful - cheers and thanks if anyones willing to assist! ^_^

Yup, needs a script to make the box move, I go over how to do this step by step in the tutorial in my sig. If that doesn't clear it up, feel free to ask more about it.

As to not freezing the player, that too is a script. I don't have how to do that handy, though.

Wow! Thanks ccoa - really didn't expect a reply from the master themself! :$ :O
(bet you here that all the time) Anyway I'll be sure to check it out - thanks alot

A while later: well ive checked out your (v. useful) tutorial, found that bit about moving the messages box with events, but i cant seem to get it to work. I know for fact ive done something wrong somewhere, but theres alot to get through on there lol! Ive tried rereading it + copy & pasting bits here an there but it just doesn't work.

You think that either you or anyone could just tell it to me straight; like...just...scream out exactly what I should do and/or how!? Ive seen alot of your step-by-step help but ive missed where your s'posed to put these lil' codes so....i'm just dumb :P
