Sprint script (uuh.. ON/OFF?)

Is it possible to deactivate the sprint button, maybe a script that can be used on an event to turn it off and on..

I desire an item which after obtaining it, the sprint action becomes available, thanks in ADVance :D

In the first reply Akod has a very short script that ties dashing to a switch. Just set the switch number to whatever you want and then turn that switch on when the player obtains the item, that creates the illusion that the item is doing the work when in fact it's the switch.

An alternative method would be use the same script, but create a common event that turns the switch on and then make it so that when the player uses the item it runs the common event.
