Message box doesn't stop event movements (??!!)

[Lawrence 0]

Hi everyone, after a big time... I went back to work on my game...
Did a lot of things but then I noticed a very annoying thing...

 

When a message box is shown up, events do not stop moving.

 

Apart from asking WHY all the older rpgmakers have this function but not RPGmXP...

 

How can I fix this with a script? :/

Ok..

I temporarily fixed this with a switch activated every time a message is shown, but I'd prefer more a thing like the old rpgmakers...

 

 

Ok, this is how I did this:

 

I added $game_switches[number] = true under "refresh" of Window_message script

 

$game_switches[number] = false  under   def terminate_message of Window_message

 

Then every time a message ends, I call a common event to disactivate the switch...

 

then

 

then I went to "game_character 2" and ...

 

 

# Branch by move type
case @move_type
when 1 # Random
if $game_switches[39] == false
move_type_random
end
when 2 # Approach
if $game_switches[39] == false
move_type_toward_player
end
when 3 # Custom
if $game_switches[39] == false
move_type_custom
end
end

 

 

 

This kinda works for now... At least for event movements...

 if anyone knows a better way please tell me

 

Thank you people
