Very basic problem

[liammiller18]

So, I'm currently trying to make my first game! W00t! 

I've got a problem, however;

I want it to be that when you leave the starting area for the first time you get called over by the guy sitting across the room and given a helm, and then you're able to leave without any issues, however, I can only get one of the two to happen at a time. I assume this has to do with switches.

PLZ HALP! :thumb:

Have a scene with the guy calling him with text, set move route towards the guy, add weapon helm (with or without text), then end, erase or use a switch to end it.

Noliander: "Erase Event" makes the event disappear while you're in the map, but it reappears as soon as you leave and walk back in.

Have it so that the event making it impossible to leave has two pages  -- the first page should have whatever it is you're using to keep the player in the room, and the second page should be blank (or if this event is right at the door, give it the Transfer Player command.) This second page should have the condition that the switch "got the helm" or whatever you want to name it is ON. When the guy gives you the helmet, turn switch "got the helm" ON and the event keeping you indoors will flip over to the page that depends on that switch -- the blank page (or a transfer event, depending on what's on the second page.)

I hope this is clear enough. I'm not very good at explaining things. If there's anything you don't get, just shout and I'll try to be less clumsy with my words. : P
