Summary

Hey there Since I haven't been around for the last few months and recently started tinkering with the RMMV again, I ran into an issue which I'm not sure of if it is a bug or intended behavior.  When I create a big map and put an event to the right that should run to the left after a switch is activated, it does not start running; it only does after I walk a few steps to the right.

Hey there


Since I haven't been around for the last few months and recently started tinkering with the RMMV again, I ran into an issue which I'm not sure of if it is a bug or intended behavior.

If I put the right event more to the left, it moves as wished. The expected behavior is working in RMVX. Btw, I am running RMMV 1.2.0 here.


I guess this may be some sort of anti-lag optimization.


Is there a way around this without having to mess with the core scripts? And it is a bug or the way it should be?


Thanks in advance,


Chocobo
