Thanks.

Just do it with events. Let the player swap places with the event, change the event's graphic to the player graphic and vice versa and you're done. I don't really get the diagonal thingy? Can you show a screenshot? I will make a demo.

[SBR*]

Wait, I think I don't get you right. So you don't want something to swap places with an event?

[SBR*]

This?

What SBR first suggested would work as well. Fool the player to believe that the player-character is an event and visa-versa by swapping locations and graphics.

[Valdred]

just put the two commands right after each others. Wont be noticed.

[SBR*]

So do you want them to be switched, or do you want to switch what character is controlled?

[SBR*]

You got to lvl -2. Oh, and tried out my demo? That should do it.

[SBR*]

It should work ! Z is the button to switch btw.

[Valdred]

For some reason he made a decrypted project. Upload a new one

[SBR*]

Just a nooby question, but what is a decrypted project?

EDIT: Ah, so that's what that button does. I always thought: "Well, why not include those 'encryptions'?"

I ment enchrypted. sorry

[SBR*]

Need graphics switched? Hang on a sec.

EDIT: Made:

First I give you a system that doesn't change graphics, so it really gets switched. Then I give you a system that changes graphics, so it looks like you control the event. WHAT DO YOU WANT?! 

[nathmatt]

this should work put this in a parallel process

e = $game_map.events[id]
$game_player.center(e.x, e.y)

change the id to the events id

run this after you turn off the parallel process

p = $game_player
$game_player.center(p.x, p.y)

[nathmatt]

edit working on it

[nathmatt]

here but im not sure if it is exactly in the center just call $game_map.events[id].follow = true
to turn it on and false to turn it off

class Game_Event < Game_Character
  
  def follow=(condition)
    @follow = condition
    if condition
      $game_player.center(@x, @y)
    else
      p = $game_player
      $game_player.center(p.x, p.y)
    end
  end
  
  alias follow_update update
  def update
    if moving?
      $game_map.display_x = @real_x - 1064
      $game_map.display_y = @real_y - 1064
    end
    follow_update
  end
  
end

I think it'd just be easier to create a dummy character or something with a spriteset the same as the event you want to take over, then just do a bit of event teleporting or something without fade to move around and voila.

[nathmatt]

try this

class Game_Map
  
  attr_accessor :following
  
  def scroll_down(distance)
    return if following
    @display_y = [@display_y + distance, (self.height - 15) * 128].min
  end
  
  def scroll_left(distance)
    return if following
    @display_x = [@display_x - distance, 0].max
  end
  
  def scroll_right(distance)
    return if following
    @display_x = [@display_x + distance, (self.width - 20) * 128].min
  end
  
  def scroll_up(distance)
    return if following
    @display_y = [@display_y - distance, 0].max
  end
  
end

class Game_Event < Game_Character
  
  def follow=(condition)
    @follow = condition
    if condition
      $game_player.center(@x, @y)
      $game_map.following = true
    else
      p = $game_player
      $game_player.center(p.x, p.y)
      $game_map.following = false
    end
  end
  
  alias follow_update update
  def update
    if moving?
      $game_map.display_x = @real_x - 1064
      $game_map.display_y = @real_y - 1064
    end
    follow_update
  end
  
end
