External Events, like normal Events, define the logic of the game. They are edited in the exact same way as the typical event editor. Unlike a normal event set, however, External Events can be re-used in other places of the game through Link events.

External Events are excellent for keeping event sheets clean, and can also help eliminate repeating the same events in multiple places.

You can create an external events sheet in the Project Manager, under External Events and clicking the plus button.

In order to finish the creation of an external events sheet, you must select a scene for it. This is the scene upon which all object selections are based; in other words, any events which depend on objects will allow you to select only the objects from the selected scene.

The External Event editor is identical to the standard Events editor.

You can use an external events sheet by linking to it with the Link event type.

External Events are good to use when you'd like to isolate one large block of events in your events sheet, either to keep things clean or to prevent repeating the same events in multiple places. Some examples include:

• Isolating the events associated with a particular object to reduce clutter
• Moving the entire game logic to an events sheet to be used over multiple scenes of global objects
