I'm trying to make an event using unskippable text boxes and map scrolling at the same time. It worked perfectly, until I realized if I hit a certain key, it fast-forwards the text, ultimately ruining my script in the end, since the text NEEDS to be displayed for the exact amount of time I had already placed it for in order to make the event run without flaw.

Is there any way I can temporarily make all buttons disabled, or a script that can allow me to do so?

Or alternatively a way I can rewrite this script to work as I wish it to that I did not previously think of?

I'm currently using scroll map/move player route commands alongside text boxes using "\|" and "\^", if that information helps anyone understand my motive and/or problem.

I'll add a picture of the event as well since that might help.
