In my RPG there's a trigger-driven cutscene in which several characters walk around and talk to each other. To work right, the game speed has to be set to Slower for the cutscene, but afterward I want to reset it to whatever it was before. I have a global variable called "Speed" (attribute value) and before the cutscene I set Speed equal to the game's current speed. Then I set the game speed to Slower so the cutscene will work. After the cutscene, however, I can't figure out how to set the game speed equal to the variable. I have a workaround, which looks like this:
...but I was wondering, is there a faster, easier, smaller way to do it? I tried clicking the Variable button, but the variable doesn't show up.
Just use events? Like if the cutscene starts when the players reach a certain region use that to slow the speed, then when they leave the region, speed it up.
The problem is, I want the speed after the cutscene to go back to whatever it was before - if you've set the game to Fast, you don't want to have to go back to Options and change it to Fast again after each cutscene. For some reason you can Set Variable = Game Speed, but it appears you can't Set Game Speed = Variable.
