Title: Push to Move
Post by: Blizzard on August 08, 2008, 10:28:00 am
Push to Move
Version: 1.0
Type: Event Behavior


Introduction

This is a fairly simple system, but some people might bother with more complicated ways to achieve this while it's actually so easy to make.

Instructions

Put this event code in any event.

Event code: ShowHide
@>Play SE: '045-Push01', 80, 100
@>Set Move Route: Player
                : $>Change Speed: 3
@>Set Move Route: Player
                : $>1 Step forward
@>Set Move Route: This event
                : $>Turn away from Player
                : $>1 Step forward
@>Wait: 8 frames
@>Set Move Route: Player
                : $>Change Speed: 4


A possible improvement is to prevent moving at all if the event can't move. In this case you need a scripted Conditional branch wrapping the event code above. This is the altered event code:

Event code: ShowHide
@>Conditional Branch: Script: $game_map.events[@event_id].passable?($game_map.events[@event_id].x, $game_map.events[@event_id].y, $game_player.direction)
  @>Play SE: '045-Push01', 80, 100
  @>Set Move Route: Player
                  : $>Change Speed: 3
  @>Set Move Route: Player
                  : $>1 Step forward
  @>Set Move Route: This event
                  : $>Turn away from Player
                  : $>1 Step forward
  @>Wait: 8 frames
  @>Set Move Route: Player
                  : $>Change Speed: 4
: Branch End


If you don't use a speed change, be sure to set the "Wait" command appropriately to 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 for the player speeds 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 respectively. (i.e. the speed was changed to 3, to a time of 8 frames is required)

Credits and Thanks



Author's Notes

You can use this code in a common event and simply call that common event from an actual event.

N-Joy! =D

It's simple and does the trick. Now, I've got to check other event systems to see what you mean (really, I've NEVER checked a push-event system before >.<)

There's a script that does this too.
I remember I did this before but it was long and no script piece was involved.

I AM TRULY SORRY FOR THIS KIND OF A NECRO POST THING! But there´s one thing i don´t get, and that is why do you need to use a script snipplet to check if you can move the event? Wouldn´t it be simpler and simpler to check the ingore if can´t move box in the set move route?
That way it could be used unmodified in 2k/3...

Good job instructing though.

what do you mean! have you never looked at the database guide I posted? I updated it by the way, but then again you know that.
lol to think that this was one of the very first things i learned to do with events, i did it the exact same way to
