[RMVX ACE] ADDING RANDOM ENCOUNTERS TO A MAP LATER IN GAME?

At the beginning of the game, only Slimes are present to fight in a particular part of the world map.
Later in the game, the party will revisit the area at which time I would like to add other enemies to that part
of the world map. Seems impossible to me unless it can be done through switches of some kind.Thanks

Well, I suppose you could, in theory, make a duplicate world map that has the modified encounters. Though, that kinda sounds like a pain to deal with to ensure all the town/dungeon exists go to the "correct" world map.

An alternate idea (and arguably the one I should have thought of first), would be to set up common events as your encounters instead, rather than using the map's encounter-table. If you insist on not having encounters on-screen, and using a by-step method, you'd need, at minimum, three variables. One that keeps track of the player's current step-count, another to keep track of what step-count to trigger the next encounter on, and another to determine which encounter will happen when the two other variables meet.
I did think of two maps but, the transfers...ugh. Thanks for the alternatives.
I think they will work.I don't know what I'd without you pros out there.
Thanks, again!
