Is in specific frame, jump to another frame, return to that specific frame

[crashkandicoot]

Sorry for the long title,
So, (sounds like i'm making 9 games at once, but not really, i'm just really excitted i can make games now) i'm making an game where you play in a house, as a guy who needs to stay awake the whole night. he has to stay awake from sunday to saturday. (not daytime). He has to do things to make him stay awake (such as drinking water). In case the player sleeps, he is brought to a "Nightmare". (It's random which nightmare he goes to). If he gets away from the nightmare and wakes up, he returns to the game.

So let's say i'm playing the game at the friday. i sleep and have a nightmare, i succesfully beat the nightmare, but how do i return to the exact day he was?

Here's an example:

Frame 1 - Gameplay, sunday
Frame 2 - Gameplay, monday
Frame 3 - Nightmare 1
Frame 4 - Nightmare 2

So i sleep in frame 2, and go to the nightmare 1. When i beat it, how do i make sure the game KNOWS to return to where i was?
i'm bad with these values and stuff things.

You can use global values for that.

There are many ways to do it, but you could create a global value and name it accordingly.
Lets make one and call it for example "place", you could add an event "end of frame -> Set place to: X". (If you are in frame 1 for example set it to 1.)

Then, once you finish your current frame, you could add an event "End of frame + place = 1 -> Jump to Frame 1". (Here you can check which frame to go)

Add multiple events,
End of frame + place = 1 -> Jump to Frame 1
End of frame + place = 2 -> Jump to Frame 2
End of frame + place = 3 -> Jump to Frame 3

Etc.

Hope this helps.
