So I'm really really trying to understand how to make a game and after wayyy too much work, I finally got an event to work how I wanted! Konoe sets Mori (the cat) down, and it walks off upstairs, wanting her to follow.

What I need help with is when I go upstairs and come back, or if I choose to go outside again and come back, I don't want Mori to still be in the room. I want him to be upstairs now!
Here's my code:

From everything I've read, you don't use erase event, you use control switches. I could swear I was doing exactly as I read in other posts and the people who asked the questions there said "thanks, it works" but not for me! What am I doing wrong >.<?
