Common Event Problem [Solved]
author=Zachary_Braun
Try putting a longer "Wait" command inside the button-checking process. Players might not be able to tell the difference from a Wait of 0.1 and 0.2, or even a 0.5, in this case.
As a last resort, you can teleport using a coordinate-checking parallel process instead of a map event.
Fixed.
Putting in a longer wait command fixed the problem. Anything 0.2 or higher works. I originally had it for "0.1 sec." I guess 0.1 or below isn't long enough for the event to breath.
Cool, thanks for the advice everyone.
Common Event Problem [Solved]
I understand the problem lies in the hero not responding to certain events because his event is constantly being changed by a parallel process. Also it seems to affect the "collision with hero" trigger too, because the hero will get stuck in the event if it is below or above him. This only seems to happen when there are event commands, but even if these event commands are set to a condition which is not met, the hero still gets stuck.

it could be because when you are holding shift, and really even if you're not, it's constantly running the move hero command. there is no wait after the move hero. if you put a wait it will probably work.
but you should set this up in a way that will only run the move hero thing once. you could use a switch to indicate that the hero's speed has changed. then put the move hero commands in branches that check for HERO SPEED CHANGED switch is off. at the end of change hero speed, turn switch on. then when the parallel process runs through again the conditional branch will see the switch is on and not keep changing the hero's speed.
I tried putting a wait command after speeding and slowing down the hero, but that didn't make a difference. As for your other idea, I don't think using switches to turn off the event processing would work unless I were to toggle slowing down by hitting the shift key instead of depressing it, otherwise how would I turn the switches off after activating them? It would have to be linked to the shift input variable again, which would be substituting the problem for another. I'm pretty sure on this, however correct me if I'm totally overlooking something here.

The Parallel Process trigger means that when you press Shift, this event runs constantly. And the Move Event command overruns any simultaneous "Touched by Hero" event, preventing your character from activating teleports and the likes.
"Collision with Hero" events should work fine though.
If I may express a personal opinion, I think that holding an extra key to dash is one of the worst idea in video game history ever.
I would recommend you use a dash system similar to Starless Umbra's, or use my own "Double tap to dash" system: http://rpgmaker.net/tutorials/679/
The reason I have an event like this is for when the hero is sneaking around avoiding detection, I thought a slow down button would be convenient, so the hero won't rush into incoming enemies so quickly. Otherwise I wouldn't see the point of having a dash feature either. Interesting tutorial though, you're using a variable for the timer instead of the actual timer. I might be able to use that for something else.

Well, if you're interested here's where I got my help file, and it worked for me. I actually find it useful in explaining some basic mechanics.

Common Event Problem [Solved]
I have a common event set up to decrease the hero's movement speed by -1 when the shift key is depressed. However, when I have this event active, I cannot use the trigger condition "touched by hero" on map events.
For example, if I set up a simple teleport event on a map, that is below the hero, and is triggered by "touched by hero," my hero is simply able to walk over the event without triggering the teleport command.
Any idea why this event would conflict with other events?

You can check the default RTP resources and see what the dimensions are.
About the help file, you're sure your operating system is the problem? Sometimes you have to download the help file for 2k3 separately.

check the very top of the castle, the herb is above it and not behind the ramparts
Actually if you look closely, none if it is touching is it? I might drop this idea altogether, another reason being that so many people have done this already.

I disagree; I think it looks kinda visually chaotic! The layout is good, but all the extra background details are really cluttering up the place.
When you say "background details" do you mean the background objects or the background itself?
EDIT*
Also sometimes screenshots can be misleading, as long as it doesn't effect gameplay which I don't think it does.
