Reloading a map without transferring the player?

Hello forum,

RPG maker has this handy function so that when you travel between maps the events that previously moved will return to their original position if a self switch/global switch for that event isn't set true.

My problem is that I'm looking for that particular piece of code that reloads and refreshes every event in the map without transferring to another map (I need it for a series of reasons) and I cannot find it.

I've tried so far:

update
$game_map.refresh
$game_map.need_refresh
refresh
$game_map.update

Have you tried searching for the code the debug menu uses? It has a refresh map feature which afaik also resets every event to their initial state.

$game_map.refresh actually only tell the map that it has changed and needs to be updated, it doesn't do anything with resetting.

Yeah it just calls $game_map.need_refresh which in turn calls $game_map.refresh with a fadescreen. I'd like something more efficient to re-initialize the entire map.
