Summary

Hello I've been having trouble with something, I'm hoping you guys can help me figure this out. What I'm trying to do is have a monster that's shown on the map change their image after they've been defeated in battle. So basically, when you enter the map a werewolf approaches you and battle begins. Once the player defeats the werewolf, I want it's image on the map to be a man lying on the ground.

Hello I've been having trouble with something, I'm hoping you guys can help me figure this out. What I'm trying to do is have a monster that's shown on the map change their image after they've been defeated in battle. So basically, when you enter the map a werewolf approaches you and battle begins. Once the player defeats the werewolf, I want it's image on the map to be a man lying on the ground. Does that make sense?

I've been trying to do it with a self switch - so after the battle processing on page 1 of the event I've set self switch A to on. On page 2 of the event, I chose the image of the man and set it to show some text when you interact with him. But for whatever reason, the man is not showing up. There's an obstacle there on the map that I can interact with, and it shows the text I wanted, but it's like the man is invisible.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Added screenshots of the event pages. Thanks so much!!
