First of all, let me explain what I am talking about - creating a password for your game. This is so you can call a system menu, with several choices instead of just bringing up a menu screen, or for something else.

1. Set your event start condition to Parallel Process.
2. Go to Enter Password, and Uncheck all except "Cancel (6)".
3. FORK conditions, Variable -6 . (CHANGE THIS VARIABLE TO ANY NAME YOU WANT, WITHOUT A ELSE CASE.)
4. Do a Show Choice, which creates several choices when the ESC key is pressed.

That's all!

So this is pretty much just using a map event to make a front-end menu system.

PROTIP: Front-ends suck, plus this could be better accomplished with a common event.

Useful, though, if you want something specific on one map only, such as for a puzzle. There's at least that rectifying factor.

That's what I meant. Obviously you cannot create a new event on a single map and expect it to work on every one.
