[VX] 'Same as Character' events cannot walk over 'below character' events

[MukanshinBlack]

I'm sure most of you, if not all, have noticed this.  Pretty much my question is how do 'Same as Character' events walk over 'below character' events without a through involved?

This cannot be evented good enough to be efficient, and the only ideas I've come up with scripting this either involve a through or some type of impossible over-calculation.

Can anyone think up a simple solution?

(Maybe something like "$Game_Character.COLLIDE_WITH_CHARACTERS fix : if priority of event == (0 or below character) something.passable?  #I'm still new to ruby so I'm unsure how to do this or anything alike. :| )

Very simple solution:  Make the below character events have the Through box checked.

I did ask for a way without a through.  -_-

I guess I'll be more specific on the situation...  In my ABS, after killing an enemy an item drops that is below characters.  If the item were through, I wouldn't be able to pick it up on touch.  That ends up looking stupid when the enemy cannot walk over/around it.

Thanks for trying though.  ^_^ (although that solution didn't take long to come up with)

You can also set 'Through OFF' after enemy got killed. :D

But if it's off, how will anything be different. >,>

Nevermind, I see I once again was too specific... After one enemy dies, and an item is left behind, if another enemy comes by it will not be able to evade/pass over the dropped item.

When I said 'simple solution', I meant something not involving remembering variable coordinates for every item/enemy.  If this did not involve, or if I did not think it would involve, scripting I wouldn't have posted it here... Thanks anyways for trying Wora.  :/

EDIT:  I have given up on this request because I now believe it is impossible after reading some more stuff.  I'll have to either do it the hard way or not at all.
