[RMMV] event location/check around event

03/03/2016 10:55 PM

EDIT: a friend on another forum solved my problem. I was using thje wrong syntax on the event command.
$gameMap._events._x;
is the correct code if any one ever needs it. I also edited it in the code below.

Okay, i've started working on this plugin that will check around the event that activates it for a specific event name. I'm using this for a scarecrow event that when the day starts the filed/plant events evaluate if the scare crow is around them and if not there is a chance the plant get destroyed.

now the problem i have is with the script getting the events location. When checking a specific coordinate, the script works fine, but when if asks for the events location I get crazy errors. I was told a line $gameMap.events().x; should get the x coord for the event, but it doesn't seem to. same code switch x for y to get the Y coord.

anyway, here is what I have so far. On lines 25 and 26 i set static numbers and commented out the dynamic xy. if any one knows whats wrong let me know.
