Event Hacking question

I change the event tag for Umaro in FF6LE to 1E8B4 and finally Umaro is there. I was assuming he'd just be standing there, but he walks all over the place. So I need to figure out how to change that.

I think (though I'm not sure because I haven't messed with it) that the action number determines this. Setting that to 0 may force Umaro to stand still.

If it's already 0, then someone with a bit more experience with FF6LE can probably help you.

However, now that I have Umaro the game crashes if I talk to him before I talk to setzer. It also crashes at the coin toss now instead of a little further down at the ante up line. I honestly have no clue why. Any thoughts?

As far as Umaro crashing the game, this was answered earlier:

You have Umaro's event pointing to 1E8F6; event pointers are relative to bank CA, so this is actually pointing to CB/E8F6, which is right in the middle of the escape from the burning house event. You'd likely see some really funky stuff before the game just up and crashed.

You said you changed his event to 1E8B4. If you look at the event dump, this location (CB/E8B4) is in the middle of an event. That event needs to point to whatever you want to happen when the player tries to talk to Umaro.

As far as it crashing after the coin toss, I think we'd need to see what code you inserted/overwrote there. That part starts somewhere around CB/2121, after Celes stops speaking. It sounds like it could just be a typo or something, where you were trying to insert stuff at CB/2221 and accidentally did it at CB/2121.
