Ok, so basically I want to have a car sprite moving in one direction only, and when it reaches a wall, the event should reset and go back to it's starting point, for example - The event sprite will be against the left wall of the map, and it will move to the right side, but once it cannot move anymore it should go back to the left wall

How would I do this?


I've tried with setting a car on parallel process and following a custom pattern and it moves.. and works.. and reloops but it happens over and over? I'd like for it to be random, how often the car zipz pass the screen?

Do you want it to happen only once? Or keep repeating but at random times?

Sounds like he wants it to repeat randomly. Can you give us a screen cap of the event window with the commands you used to create the loop?

I forget if the looping move-route that I set up back in Arbiters was a parallel process or a move-route as defined on the event-page itself. I'm thinking it was a parallel process, since players could not talk to the NPC that was doing the movement.

Anyway, if the frequency of the car-event going past the screen occurs at random intervals (which is what I'm reading?), my best guess is to include some kind of Wait command based on a variable (I'm pretty sure "random between X and Y" is an option) at the start of the parallel process. I have no idea if the Wait command can be passed a variable in TsuK3/2K3 (or any RPG Maker engine), though!

You don't have to have the Wait command necessarily random but just set some different wait command times that way it isn't just a straight boring loop.
maybe use Switches to cycle through a few different Wait times!

above is the coding i have.

I face in a random direction and lock the facing to randomly change the cars colors that zip past. I have it move all the way to the other side of the screen, change graphic to something invisible, move it back to the beginning and randomly wait to start up again.

So far this works, I also have the event on parallel process.

And yes, I do want to have it keep happening.
