Change Tileset Passability - Terrain Tag

[higgle2piggle 0]

Hi, In RMXP I'm trying to make a situation in the game.

Find boots and (equip/or just have in inventory) to be able to walk on water.

 

The normal tileset is set to "X" on my water in the database, but when the char finds the boots I want the char 

to be able to walk on the water... or any water actually. So I think this will need to use terrain tags. But I'm not sure how to set it up. 

 

Is there a way I can do this using events, without making lots of events. Just like a Common Event system or something.

I cant find any help.

 

If anyone has any answers, it would be much appreciated.

I made major edits to the swimming script you found. No events are required at all. All the credit still goes to who made the swimming script since all i did was make edits.

 

All you have to do is change the $boots = 32 to the id of the armor that is in the accessory slot. You can find $boots at the top of the script on line 12.

 

Once the player has that item equipped they can press enter on anything that has the terrain tag of 2

I got it to work so far but the transition to get in the water is being a problem and you can also exit at any point even if its an X tile. This is what i got so far and you can play with it. Set water to be terrain tag #1 and have a switch that is always on.

If i can figure out how to fix the problems i will let you know.

Cool, I'll reproduce the event as you have done. and work on it from there. Thanks for your help. I'll keep this post updated :)

 

 

No, I've been thinking.. Is their a way to call the Passage function from the data base. Like Row 1 Column 3 passage true or false?

I could include this call in the common event. How is the Tileset Passage coded ... therir must be a call script function to manually change the passage when desired.

 

 

Image 1 is the area where Passage is referenced in the Script Database.

Image 2 is how I would wish the call function would work.

 

Is this possible?

 

 

It shouldnt be too hard. This swimming script does something of the sort. But still not dependent on Equipped Item.

This may work. But its for VX. I dont have VX :(

Hi, Thank you very much for helping me out.

However, I can't manage to get the script to do anything.

I've checked the terrain tag is 2, and item is equipped, but when i walk to the water and press "ok" nothing happens... am I doing something wrong?

Cheers

[Polraudio 122]

Make sure the armor is an Accessory cause if its not it wont work.

 

Heres the project it works on for me if you want to compare.

Hi Polraudio.

Thank you. I realized that the passability in the database tileset needs to be "O" not "X"...

That's what I was doing wrong.

So the script works very well :)

 

I hate to be annoying, but is it an easy task to remove the necessity to press "C" from the script? making the movement seamless from land to water?

Or is that pushing the friendship :)

 

Muchly appreciated. 

[Polraudio 122]

Its not annoying, i enjoy helping people when i can.

 

Very easy to remove. Just takes the removal of 3 lines in the script.

It works perfectly now. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks :)

Should this thread be re titled something more helpful for people to use as a resource?

You worked magic on that swimming script Polraudio !
