Hello, yes you can interact with events on the map. You can even set it to interact with enemies as well. This setup is called event trap.
I think it's best I do a video on this later but by text:
- In event note box, put the note tag: <TBS Actor Trap> this will enable it to trigger by actor only. Auto actor can trigger it as well. Also add the note tag: <Trap>
- In event note box, set trigger range by using note tag: <Trap Range:x> where x is a number. For contact range, x = 1.
- Change event move route to custom and set movement to happen every turn there.
Let me know if you get any issues.
