Hello! I need a teensy-weensy bit of help. I read through the entire scripting section of the DROD TCB help file and experimented in the editor, but I just can't figure out how to get Beethro himself to move in a cutscene and/or move to a different room! I made a Beethro character and had him move, but then I ended up with two Beethro's, and it couldn't move to the next room. Plz help!

If you use the command "Player Role None" then the player-Beethro will disappear. You can then get the Beethro character to replace him.

Beethro characters have the advantage of being able to become the player if they are turned into monsters.

But how do you make him move to another room?

You don't - you use Go to Level Entrance and have another cutscene start immediately upon the player's arrival.

Then make it look like the Beethro NPC came in from the other room. Probably with a short delay, then the NPC appearing on the room edge.
