Making a non-NPC object move?

[CrimsonWolf]

Can it be done? I have a floating platform I want to be able to move, but if I set it up with a graphic from the current tile set and use the same stuff I'd use for an NPC (Random move route, Parallel Process) it doesn't go anywhere. I also tried setting it up as a new character sprite, but again it didn't move. I tried duplication the event with an NPC and it worked no problems.

So what am I doing wrong?

If you are using Blizz-ABS (which I don't know since you don't seem to have read this topic even though it is stickied), you have to turn off the Autokill option in the Anti-Lag Configuration. It prevents the update of specific events.

I'm not using Blizz-ABS, that's why I didn't mention it. I wouldn't have thought I'd need to specify when I didn't use something. I'm not running an ABS. All I want to know if if I create an event with a graphic from a tileset or from a character set, can I make it move? In the event i've created a custom move route to move down 5 times and then up 5 times, repeat is set to on. It's a parallel process so it should run fine, yet it doesn't move. I don't think I can be any more specific than that.

have you placed any wait commands in it.

Nope, just the movement ones.

Did you set the route in the Autonomous Movement and not as an event code?

I tried using a tileset as an event graphic and it works fine for me.
