Movement Via Destination Settings?

Is there a way to set an entity to move towards a set coordinate on a map? This would allow for more flexibility of scripting.

For example, can I script it such that:

When I enter the map, the NPC will make its own way to me? Regardless of wherever I stand.

There is a "Move towards Player" move route command in RMXP. That does what you want. You put in plenty of those, and check the "Ignore if can't move" thingy, to avoid errors.

Thanks, but is there a way for it to move towards a coordinate rather than me?

You're asking whether there is path-finding in RMXP/Essentials. There isn't. You'll have to set the move routes manually.
