Overview

This guide will help you make NPCs that randomly roam your map.

Making A Roaming NPC

Step 1.

Click on events on the toolbar.

Step 2.

Right click where you want to place the NPC. This will be where the NPC will start roaming from, then click on “New Event..”.

Step 3.

You can change the Graphic to whatever you want the NPC to look like while it’s roaming. In the Autonomous Movement box change “Type” to “Random”, “Speed” to however fast you want the NPC to move. Change “Priority” to “Same as Characters”, “Options” to “Walking Anim.” and change “Trigger” to “Action Button”.

Step 4.

If you choose to add text then right click in the “Contents” box and click on “Insert…”

Step 5.

Click on “Show Text” then add type whatever you’d like the NPC to say when you use the action button on it. You can also choose the face graphic, the background colour and the position of the text box.

When you’ve done that you’re all ready to go!
