[XP] Character Response

[kiddle 0]

I'm a beginner and I'm fooling around with RPG Maker XP. So here's the problem:

When the player touches a piano on one of my maps, I want another character to respond to it, and walk over to the piano. I have the player-touch thing and music to play when they touch it. I just don't know how to connect these two events (the player touching it, and the character walking over.) I know there's switches and stuff, but I have no idea how they work. I'll attach a screen-shot, so you can see what I'm talking about.

Oh, and also, how do you stop a player from spending gold past 0? I have a little shop where the player can buy things, but you can buy everything, even when you have no gold.

Thanks to anybody who responds!

Switches are easy! They can be on, or off. You can tell one event to start doing things when another happens.

 

However, you don't need to use one for this. Just use a set move route commands after the music to move your fat guy over to the piano. :)

 

 

As for the gold, use a conditional branch. You need to tinker around with this stuff a lot, because you will find it easy, and even not have to post questions. : D

 

If you need a more detailed explanation, just ask. However, I will NOT HELP YOU if you don't try to do it on your own first.

 

By the end of January, I will have a demo of my secret project which will help you learn basic and advanced concepts of RMXP. Meanwhile, check this out: http://www.rmxp.tigerseye.uk.com/tutorial_event2.shtml

 

 

I suggest reading about everything on that site.
