Make a map tinted darker when a switch is activated?

doodlebound · 2018-11-12T05:13:20+0900

For example, I have a switch that makes the area turn to nighttime, and I want the area to appear darker. I know this is kind of a noob question, but can someone explain how to do this..?

Create a parallel process event on the map, conditioned by the switch, with the two commands:

Change Screen Tone (might be called something slightly different)
Erase Event

Every time you enter the map, if it's night time (the switch is on), the area will be darker. If it's not, the area will be lighter.

Thank you! It worked great!

Just report your post and let the mods know your question is answered (if you're happy that this is resolved), and they'll lock the thread for you.
