Get on/off vehicle doesn't work

Put it above 'transfer player'?

The key bit is probably "if the vehicle is not in a place where it can be boarded or exited, the command will be ignored."

The ship can't go on the land where you have transferred the player, so the command is ignored.  Try moving the ship to where you could land from normally, have Get Off, transfer the player again to where you really want him to be, if that is somewhere different, and the ship to where it is supposed to be.  Then do your fade in.

If the player is on the ship in the screenshot then of course the command is ignored, because the ship is already on land where it is not allowed to be.

You need to be very careful about the exact sequence on when which command is given - please post a screenshot again of your current event and we'll tell you what to change there.

I am currently playing around in a sandbox project to try and learn how the events should be used.

Right now, I am trying to make a whirlpool event that when you sail into one, a few things happen:

1. You are shown a picture of a whirlpool taking up the screen.
2. You are shown text that tells you that you were caught and that everything goes black.
3. When the screen goes black the picture disappears.
4. When the screen fades in again, you are on land and your vehicle is waiting at sea again.

My issue is with 4.

Currently my event looks like this:



But it's like the "Get on/off vehicle" event is completely ignored. Even though I place the vehicle next to a patch of land in which the player could get out of the vehicle or on.



The ship would be placed where the starting position is at shown in the above picture.

What am I doing wrong?

can the ship move on those coordinates? Have you checked that by deactivating the event and going there manually?

Because there is one tile of "shallow water" where the rowboat but not the ship can move...

You transfer the player, but did you transfer the vehicle? The player has to be on a tile right next to the ship, and facing it, in order to get on it. So if you move your player back to the edge of the land (make sure it's in a direction that's facing the sea), you also have to do a Set Vehicle Location to put the ship in front of the player.

I have it working, you have to point the boat to face the shore.

so here is the BEFORE

Here is AFTER

Here is the Wirlpool event

Do you want it to work or not?  :p

Edit, I see you have multiple wirlpools, it seems like having each one of those be only a few lines and having only 1 single event running the getting off the boat every time might work better also.

If you are goign to have a bunch of extra stuff in the whirlpool the you might want to wait until just before the fadeout to turn the switch on.

Other than that it takes a few seconds before it fades back in, it's not as instant.
