I’m not a big fan of forum members just giving up so fast, without even looking through their events to make sure they’re the same as the example. Please don’t make it a habit, or you’ll struggle being a programmer/game maker. And this isn’t a nasty or snarky comment - I’m just giving you some advice, because I (and probably all the experienced devs on this forum) have spent days struggling with a single bug at some point. It’s all part of programming life.


Anyway, your new events don’t work because the event with the check text is "6" condition is not a subevent of the one above it, like I have in my previous post. Fix that, and it will work.

Your events:
