[XP] Haki's Event Spawn Script

[Haki]

Event Spawn ver. 1.2
by Haki

Introduction:

This script is used to force a number of events come out of a specific place. Only one event needs to be created and you can use this script to multiply it as many times as you want (okay, that's not true because RMXP has it's limit, but I guess you won't need so many events).


Script:

Please follow the instructions inside the script. If there's anything you don't get please download the demo.

#==============================================================
# Haki's Event Spawn Script ver. 1.2
#==============================================================
#
# How to use:
# -Create an event which will be your spawn point. First page of the event should be
#  the template for events to spawn. When you're done, create an empty page. The
#  third page is your spawn point's page. The fourth page should be empty. The first 
#  line in the third page should look like
#  this:
#
# Comment: spawn
#
# -Second line is used for number of events to spawn, and the third one indicates
#  the number of frames that need to pass in order for another event to appear. When
#
#  So, if you want ten events to appear with twenty frames interval, the event
#  would look like this:
#
#  Comment: spawn
#  Comment: 10
#  Comment: 20
#
# Compatibility
# -The script hasn't been tested with any other scripts.

Could be fault on my part but when Bugs come out of the tree i gave them a battle event
I kill them i never made a After their dead event tho but once you kill them they stop moving but graphic still their :P

I had this problem with my Auto Populate Map script. I solved by creating a brand new RPG::Event (not Game_Event), with a new unused id, for each Game_Event i create.

 

[y 65]

Im srry but i dont quite understand wat Rpg:Event means

 

[Charlie Fleed]

sorry y 65, that was more a suggestion for Haki, so that he can find a way to fix your problem.

 

[Haki]

I fixed the problem. You can now use self switches to make events disappear. I uploaded the new demo and script.

Is there a way of erasing an event, because when ever I attempt to do so I get the following messege, and the program crashes:


Script 'Haki Event Spawn Script' line 68: NoMethodError occured.

undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
