Summary

What I want to know You know, when 2 players share a keyboard, one using the arrow keys and space bar, the other using WASD and left control, so you can control two at once? It doesn't need to be split screen, it doesn't need to be online, it's using one keyboard   What I've tried

What I've tried
I know Woratana made a script for VX, but VX is not as cool as VX Ace
 
Also, Tsukihime tried before so I messaged him and he'll probably message back as soon as he gets online. I'm just posting it here in case that plan fails.
 
And I tried using autorun and parallel processes in VXA along with Cidomar's Full Input Script to produce events that can move. Here's what happened when using Autorun or Parallel Process:

  • Autorun -- Only the autorun event is running, so I can't control my character with the Arrow Keys while this is happening. So nope.
  • Parallel Process -- Strangely, it doesn't register all key presses. I often have to press a key about 3,4,5 times in order for it just to move. Not practical at all. Here's a screenshot of what's inside the event:

Why I need it
I'm using it to create a co-op puzzle game. So I want both of the characters to be able to interact with events on the map just like real players.
Thanks in advance!
