How to make NPC disappear after talking to player?

[clewis92]

I'm trying to make the antagonistic "team" boss come up to the player, say something, then walk off-screen and disappear. What is the correct way of doing this? I've tried using a switch that turns on AFTER the communication is over, then on the actual character event I made a second page that erases the event when the switch is on. However this did not work, even though I was almost certain that it would.

The rival in Route 2 of the maps that come with Essentials does this. Try copying it.

Where exactly is the event on Route 2? All I see is a few hidden items and bridge events. I may or may not be blind... lol

Actually, I think he meant Route 3.

It's a good idea to play through the demo or at least look at all the events in the demo; there's lots of useful stuff in there.

I wish I could, but I keep getting an error when I try to start the game. I even re-downloaded it and I still get it.

I looked in the rival script, what line exactly does so the npc is disappearing?

Making an event disappear is a basic RMXP skill. It's assumed that you knew how to use RMXP before you came here. Please look on the Internet to learn about it.

Did you install the Pokemon Pack? The images and sounds are in their own pack.
