Transfer Question

[Hamstt]

I really need some help. You see, when your in a dungeon in my game there are multiple transfers to different rooms but on the same map (to save maps). But you can't go through the same transfer more than once so if you go to a different room, then go back the way you came then try to go back to that room, nothing happens. It turns into an event that can't be moved and that doesn't do anything. Help!

Ah, a variation of the "How do I make this event happen only once" question that gets asked very frequently in these parts.  (Indeed, somebody else just asked this...)

Give the event two pages.  The first page is whatever you want the event to do, but at the end, turn a Self Switch ON.

The second page does nothing, or whatever you want the event to do after the fact, and has the Page Condition of that same Self Switch being ON.

@Unka Josh
No not that... I know how to use switches. I'll try to explain better. Right, here I go. In one map there are two seperate rooms that you can transport to. But if you try to go back to a room then back to the one you just came from the transfer event stops working. I don't want this to happen but it does. So... Help?

Let me be the first to say, "The Hell?"

How did you construct your transfer event?

And what do you mean, "Can't be moved"?

 

[Hamstt]

All I did was use the 'Quick Transfer'. Right a pic will explain better.

I even tried starting at the second transfer event first. The same thing happens to the second event if I do that. (And propbably to the first one but I don't know because I can't get back to it).

I hope I was clear (This is hard to explain)

Actually, what would be much more helpful would be a screenshot of the event code itself.

Okay then here is a screenie:

Its the same for the other one but just leading somewhere else. Also it only happens on this map. Do you think it has something to do with it leading to the same map?

Okay, that is just plain weird.  There is absolutely no reason that I can see that that event would only run once.  None. 

I fear, my friend, that you have encountered an inexplicable program glitch, such as Enterbrain's products seem to have once in a blue moon.  Try deleting the event and recreating it, or deleting the map and recreating it.  A pain in the ass, yes, but I can't see any reason that what you've posted would stop working.

I have atually created the map twice before postin' this topic. I guess this is a glitch.  :down:
