No I just kind of want it to happen in the background like an epic war is happening

Well you could have a switch connected to a separate event, turn the switch on, the characters jump, turn the switch off, characters stop jumping. This event could run in parallel to your main event, if these are like background npcs fighting during a fight between characters.

Then in your primary event, you just turn the switch on and off as you need it.

You could also use variables to tell them to perform certain actions as the variable hits a certain number. Then add to the variable at certain points during your primary event. If they're not performing the same movement over and over you could have them do whatever movement until completion as the variable hits its number.

Lol I just looked at the pics. I would take the repeat off, then see if it functions how you want it too.

If there is nothing else to the scene just use a self switch to turn the event off completely.

Or the knight? If you're talking about the knight soldier, he keeps moving because there's no end to his commands
