Having issues with Trainer eye catch

The issue is, trainers don't exactly "see" the player....
I put in the standard eyecatch script:

@>Script: pbTrainerIntro(:BUGCATCHER)

Click to expand...

and

@>Script: Kernel.pbNoticePlayer(get_character(4))

Click to expand...

and the conditional branch script with the battle. Other info is the even is "Action Button" if it means anything. And when I stand in front of the trainer (through RMXP's Debug and regular shell) at 3 (I know I put 4) spaces away the trainer stares at me. But when I talk to it, the trainer starts walking into me.

You have to also put Trainer(x) in the 'name' area, with x being the number of steps ahead they can 'see' the player. Here's a full event for one of my trainers in my game. The second page is just the after battle text, with self switch A being on.

That 4 is supposed to say 0... The event is supposed to be named "trainer(x)" we're x Is the amount of spaces away from the event that the npc can "see"... I'm gonna say that the number in the brackets is the direction the npc is facing! But who knows and who cares, right!

That number is the ID of the event you want to move (or 0 for "this event" or -1 for "the player"). Frankly, you should always use 0, because you'll only ever want to move "this event".

The event's name must be Trainer(3) for it to work, though. The number is the distance they can see in front of them. The event page must also be set to Event Touch.

Does it always need to be named Trainer(3)? I have it set to 1,2,4,5 and etc. It seems to work fine.

It can be any number you want. The point is that the event's name needs to be Trainer(X), where X is a positive number.
