finding the event name string[Resolved]

[Ryex]

can some one quickly tell me where I can find the string storing an events name?
I know that events are stored in
$game_map.events
but I can't figure out how to find the name (the one you enter into the editor) I need it so I can contemplate the tini little add-on I making for the UMS

def check_event_name(event_id)
      # temporary variable
      event = $game_map.map.events[event_id]
      # initialize
      enemy, time, attr, id, group, lock, drop = 0, 5, 0x00, nil, nil, nil, nil
      move = immortal = object = full_passable = false
      # if lock setting exists
      if event.name.clone.gsub!(/\\lock\[(\d+)\]/) {"#[$1]"}
        # get lock setting
        lock = $1.to_i
      end

so id sugest u def something  (event_id) then u would go  event = $game_map.map.events[event_id] so it would know what events name to check then  if event.name.clone.gsub to do the checking

in other words, .name.  You probably could have saved yourself some time by just searching the help file.  It's right there, I found it in 17 seconds...

how... odd... I looked at the Game_Event class and didn't see it declared so I thought it wasn't there... *Slaps self* [resolved]
