#

#  Introduction:

#  =============

#

#  This script allows you to copy an event from one map to another. Please note

#  this does not save them to a map,  you will need to add them every time. You

#  could use this  to set pre-defined events  within a repository map  and copy

#  them in on an auto event every time you enter the town for example.

#

#  Optionally, you could use it to create an army to chase characters in a map,

#  copying one or two premade soldier events  rather than  manually produce the

#  10 or 20 soldiers. Another potential use would be eventers using it to help

#  event systems where you copy in an all-purpose event into the map.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

#  Script Call:

#  ============

#

#  $game_map.add_event_from_map(map_id, event_id, new_x, new_y)

#    * map_id   : the repository of the event to copy

#    * event_id : the id of the event to copy

#    * new_x    : x-coordinate where to place the new event

#    * new_y    : y-coordinate where to place the new event

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

#  Remember:

#  =========

#

#  The events generated with this script are only temporary. While the events

#  do stay on the map when you toggle between the field map and the main menu

#  and/or the battle-system,  and they do remain present  within saved games,

#  the events generated will vanish  when you exit the field map and teleport

#  into another.

#

#  for me, but for Fomar0153 as well.
