for some reason my quick intro is bugged and wont display anything as if it didnt fade back in (as shown in first video). whenever i try to fix it, the game is able to fade in but all other fades become broken (as shown in second video). I believe this happened after downloading the gen 8 plugin, but it may have happened after, and its not related.
If anybody has any help for this thank you. This is my first post, please tell me anything I have done incorrectly.

This actually seems like a fairly easy fix. In the code in your second video, the problem is that you don't have a delay between when you turn the screen black and when you turn it clear again. So basically, you're telling it to turn black and then clear in the same step, so it just tries to turn clear, which it already is, and so no screen transition happens. You have to put a delay in after you tell it to turn the screen black. To fix this, just put another Wait: 10 frames before "Transfer Player." That should give time for the screen to turn dark, then transfer the player, and then turn white again.


In case you didn't know (you may and this might just be an oversight): Changing the screen color tone does not automatically pause the game. The steps are just the amount of time it takes for the screen to change that color. The wait command, therefore, has to be separate. Let me know if this does or doesn't help! edit i am the one who oversighted

Oh, I see. I apologize for the confusion, I was misinterpreting Quick Start intro as the staircase object. Scratch the previous suggestion and remove the wait from there. That being said, I don't have experience with that plugin pack so I can't comment on what could be broken with that. I'll default to anyone else who has experience with it instead.
