I'm trying to program an encounter where my protagonist is joined by her first teamate, and it's not going exactly as I planned. See, the event is supposed to go: Protagonist talks to themselves as they walk (check), they hear a monster noise and freak out (check) ally suddenly appears and they have a short dialogue (check) battle ensues with ally in party (check) battle ends and the party continues on their merry way. That last step is where the wheels fall off. For some reason the diaglogue and batle sequence repeat indefinately, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've included a screen shot of my event script. I have it set on the sprite that is supposed to join my party. I wish I could explain more, but I'm more of a visual person and I don't know if I can upload multiple screen caps.

Did I mention I've only had the program for four days and have been looking for tutorials but none are really helping me as much as I need?
