Special event after stage end

[freezeex]

I was trying to make a special event in the stage or something
so after the stage ended
I summon an enemy
but the enemy ends up keep running to the GO-> direction....
I have tried the stage lock and put it in the stage data.
It work but it wouldn't be a special event anymore
cause what I want was to after the stage ended the player get to choose go to the next stage or stay
if the player stay in the stage for a certain amount of time the special event will pop up.

Here is the data:

Code:

stage.dat
        <phase> bound: 785
            id: 30  x: 750  act: 254  #Bandit_summon the fake character
            id: 30  x: 300  act: 252 # Bandit_summon speech
            id: 30  x: 2000 act: 256 hp: 0 #Bandit lock the stage
        <phase_end>

        <phase> bound: 786 This is where the special event comes out
            id: 30  x: 300  act: 257 # Bandit_summon speech
            id: 30  x: 300  act: 259 ratio: 2.0  #Bandit_summon the enemy
        <phase_end>

Basically I think the problem is:
Once the stage ends, the enemy have to run into next stage unless u add a bandit to lock the stage.
However, if I do so, then the effect of "special event" won't work because the player could not go to the next stage during the time between Stage 1-1.3 and Stage 1-1.?
The data above is just trying to show my current situation that I have right now.
Doesn't really need to pay attention on it that much.
I am just trying to find any ways that can make a special event effect in the stage.
Any ideas guys?

I wonder why you use state: 10....
Bandit isn't caught or anything.... state: 14 is better so that no com will recognize him as an enemy and try to attack him....

Just wanted to mention this. Can you precisely describe which part is not working properly? At least which line exactly doesn't work properly in stage.dat. Only this line.
I suspect stagemisc to be responsible for that. Which type has it in data.txt? 3?

[freezeex]

I forgot the reason why I used state: 10 lol
I think is because state 14 makes the computers run away from it which kinda looks weird
Not sure at all lol.
By the way, I have update my post.

You can modify bandit to trigger a speacial event by adjusting the wait. If you wanna continue to next stage when player walks to the end of stage you might need to create a ball with itr: 0 and kind: 8 adjusting the dvx you go to the frame which uses state: 18 and by using a specific body point for bandit and same itr point for the ball you can kill the bandit to move on the stage. The kind: 8 x,y axis and width and height should be adjusted and place the action frame of the ball at the end of the stage by modifying stage.dat
