anyone can use events!

[sixtyandaquarter]

My "battle windows", showing all commands and items and all the like are entirely event based. My whole system is event based. Choosing to attack or use skill, flee, etc... all event based. Which skill to use, who to attack, all event based.
And (except for skills at the moment) it's not done with a single show choice command. Sure, it's a pain in the ass and even I wish there was a script for this, but it can be done.
Kinda throwing away random battles on my end because it's too tedious for me to care about, at least for the moment, but even that's not out of the question. I already figured it out on one map, but it would require sooooo much damn work to do every map, that I have thrown it out the window. But it can still be done.

Didn't despain add an entire option to the menu in his sandfall? Where you looked at the gladiators and when you bet? That is using all if not mostly nothing but events?

Gamble.

The menu in that was scripted by someone just for the sake of being more efficent- but you're right. the secondary menu that listed all the pit fighters was done with events

 

[Mr_Smith]

You can. It's just highly inefficient.

Can you? Cool. Didn't knew that. How you do it?

 

[Minkoff]

Use pictures.

 

[Mr_Smith]

Ow, that takes long time to use pictures.

All it is is a show picture command with the proper alignments, that's it. Show picture at x/y and you're set. That's it.

Other than making the pictures it's not long at all. Hell, if you have an art program and the pictures, it's only a quick step up to find your coordinates you want for the pics even.
