Hello.

This is not an RPG Maker 2003 tutorial. It is a forum.

Thank you.

And that's how RPGDX increases its member base.

Switches
========
What a switch, is basically, an on and off trigger. You can use it for many
things. Let's take a look at the dialog. Click the <> on the event you have. On
page 1, click change switch. As a beginner, you should only use the 'one' on the
switch dialog. As you get better, you can start using the rand(random), and
variable. Choose the switch from the one dialog, and continue on. We'll use the
above example
for fork conditions, and expand on it.

Fork Optn Gold 100abov
Change Switch: goldneeded ON
Else
Change Switch: goldneeded OFF
End Case

You can elaborate the above example even more. Take a look:

Fork Optn Switch goldneeded ON
Show Message: The message for the person who has above 100 gold!
Else
Show Message: The normal message for the person who doesnt have more than 100
gold.
End Case


All that came from http://www.x-rpg.net/x-rpg/modules.php?name=FAQ

Well, I still don't know what the guy is talking about, I guess because I've never used RPG Maker.

Anyway, I suppose RPG Maker is a valid discussion point, but to post a question here regarding RPG Maker without any REFERENCE to the fact that you are talking about RPG Maker is wicked NG. Although, I have seen enough questions regarding programming methods and syntax that arent explicit about what language they are using, so theres plenty of that to go around.

I've used RPG Maker before.
the 'language' that is being referenced is that of the built-in scripting language of the RPG Maker application.

Switches are easy.

think of it like this.

you have an NPC (non-player-character) that is in the town,

and you walk up to it and hit the 'action' buton to talk to it:

no response...

add an event to the NPC, and have it say "Hello."

now when you talk to the NPC, it will say "Hello."
hmm, EVERYTIME you talk to the NPC it says "Hello."
this isn't very good.

add a switch event like "talked to once",
and have it say, "Hello again, how have you been?".

now talk to the NPC, it responds "Hello."
talk to it again, and it responds, "Hello again, how have you been?".

Hope that this has been helpful.

Whoever made rpg maker 2000 apparently knows nothing about how to make a nice scripting language. It might very well be that you can point and click it all, but the language is less freindly than assembly. For a high level language, or for just about any language, that means it sucks. I have never seen such a worthless language in my entire life.
Why are you using this??

:End Case
<>Change Switch: [####:Bullet]-OFF Set
<>
