Hi there.


I have the feeling this post might be in the wrong place, if so tell me where it should go and I'll post it there.


See the attatched picture for some visual aid. I am trying to set up an event where the boulder goes down to hole then resets to go down again. Also, I want it set up so that when the boulder touches the player it's game over. I have tried a lot of things. Nothing seems to work. I tried setting two pages, one page with a parallel process for the movement and another page with a player touch for the game over. But when I do that the event just doesn't run at all. I tried setting it so that when it reaches the hole it turns off it own switch, with the hole having an event touch on it to turn the switch back on. But the switch wouldn't turn back on.





Any help is greatly appreciated and will be met with credit in my game.


Thanks.


Kieran.


EDIT:


So, I managed to figure it out, eventually. I set up an event with this on page 1:


Then gave it this custom moveset:





Then set up a page 2:





And gave this moveset:





Then in the end I ended up with a room looking like this:





Each boulder rolls down to the hole and turns on a switch and goes to page 2. Then the event moves back up and turns off the switch and goes to page 1. If the event touches the player then it's game over.
