Set move route via script for event (solved)

[LadyLegend]

Hello,

I appreciate and thank you for any help you all can give me.

So this is the basic. I created a bomb event on a map that moves to my players coordinates while
its invisible by the press of a button. The bomb then moves up, down, left or right based on the player direction then becomes visible, explodes yadi yada. Everything works fine but I want to run this event by way of common event so I don't have to copy and paste the script over and over again. I don't know the script call to move events to player x,y location or up, down, left or right.

I don't know the script call to move events to player x,y location or up, down, left or right.

I wrote a small plugin to help you along on your game making adventure.

function setBomb(eventId){
  var x = $gamePlayer._x; var y = $gamePlayer._y;
  switch ($gamePlayer._direction){case 2:y=y+1; break; case 4:x=x-1; break; case 6:x=x+1; break; case 8:y=y-1; break;}
  $gameMap._events[eventId].locate(x,y);
}

Place the attached .js file in plugins folder.
(or paste the code above into a new ".js" file and place in the file in plugins folder)
Add the plugin using the plugin manager.

Call the script using the following script call:

setBomb(n);

n is the eventId of the bomb;

Let me know if that helps.
