Hey Community!

I am trying to design an event where an NPC fights you and then joins you if you win. However, the switches are acting strange. I will show code and explain below.

Code:

Comment: Event Page 1
If: Nana In Team = OFF
	
:Else
	Text: None, Dim, Bottom
		:Here Lies Liboria Catalano
		:Born: 1935 Died: 2014
		:Mother, Leader and Radical Grandma
	Control Switches: #0001 Nana Activated = ON
	Set Event Location : This Event, (32,4)
	Control Self Switch: A = ON
:End

Code:

Comment: Event Page 2
If Nana Activated is ON
    Set Movement Route: This Event(Wait)
                Opacity: 0
                Opacity: 10

        :Liboria: I was known as Liboria.  Will you release me from the chains of Death?
    Show Choices: Yes, No(Dim, Right, #1, #2)
    :When Yes

    :If Win
        Control Switches: #0002 Nana In Team = OFF

            :Liboria: Thank you for honoring my Life. In turn, I will honor yours.

    :If Lose
        Game Over
        
    :End

    :When No
        Text:NanaFrown(0), Dim, Bottom
            :Liboria:...
        Set Movement Route: This Event(Wait)

                    Opacity: 0
        Set Event Location: This Event, (33,5)
        Set Movement Route: This Event(Wait)
                            :Through ON
        Control Switches: :#0001 Nana Activated = OFF
        Exit Event Processing
        Control Self Switch: A = OFF
        Erase Event
        Set Movement Route: This Event(Wait)
                            :Through ON
    :End

As seen above in the comments in the code, event page 1 has the Switch set to OFF, as my brain understands it, I want that switch to be set to ON after she is defeated so the event no longer appears on the map. However, when I switch it to ON the action press button of event page one doesn't trigger anything. Event page two is set to parallel.

Feel free to help me clean this up --- I am brand new at this. Some pictures are attached.

Thank you in advance.

Please feel free to ask any questions!
