Event with a Password

[Buchholz]

Hello guys,

I've a short question.
I want to implent a lift which only works with a password.
How can I set up an event where the player needs to enter the correct code to get through?

Thank you!

Something like this should work. It stores whatever the player writes in variable 1.
2 and 7 are the minimum and maximum lengths allowed.

pbSet(1,pbEnterText("Password?"),2,7))
Conditional Branch: $game_variables[1]=="What the password should be"

Then whatever should happen if the password is right.

There's bit of a meta problem with that approach vs say, the Trick Master's way of doing it:
Players can skip sections by just looking it up online.
I guess you could randomise it for each game, but then you might as well just do it like the Trick Master.

Thank you HarmonyConcept! It works perfectly.

You are comparing the text the player entered with a number. You need to compare the text with another string.
So, $game_variables[1]=="1234"

I want to put the password 1234, how can you send an image of what it would look like?

There's a built-in command to prompt the user to input a number instead of text and store it in a variable in rpg maker. Idk how well it works with essentials, but maybe you could try that instead.

I do not understand, can someone give you an image of how to do it?

You see the 1234 in your image? Just put quotes around it.
