HELP! My game freezes with custom event.

HELP! My game freezes when I use this custom event. I can assemble it with EA but when I move one of my characters, instead of the 'wait' menu coming up, the game freezes. The Event:

This happened to me a couple of times before. It happens to me occasionally when I write different versions of the event data to the same memory location twice. Try going to that location in a hex editor and overwriting the event data with 00s, then reassembling the event.

HELP! My game freezes when I use this custom event. I can assemble it with EA but when I move one of my characters, instead of the 'wait' menu coming up, the game freezes. The Event:

Whenever I've seen this happen, it usually means something's been overwritten (either your events overwrote something else, or something else is overwriting your events). Try writing your events to another section of free space.

Also, a couple related things:

- Please put your events inside a spoiler tag.

- We already have a pinned thread dedicated to event questions.

I tried the recommended fix and the problem has been solved! The only problem is that now for some reason when my Eliwood lord dies the game over won't trigger. I'm going to post the problem on the EA thread but thank you for the help.
