if you think mapping with the in-game tools is great, just wait til you learn about parallax mapping.

How do I only make someone give me an Item once? For example, if an Old Man gives me a sword. If I click him again, he gives me another sword. And another

i dunno how it works in MV, but what i did in older RPG maker games is have the end of the event (in this case, your Old Man event) turn on a switch. then, i would make a new event page in that event that is only active when that switch is on.

so the event would be something like:

(trigger event)
Old Man: Yo take this sword
>add sword to inventory
>turn on 'Sword Obtained' switch
(end)

the 'Sword Obtained' switch would make the second event page on the Old Man event the active event, which will now play out like this:

(trigger event)
Old Man: Nice sword, innit?
(end)

looking at the screenshot you posted () i would guess that you can do this with the "Self Switch" option.

Also, how do I change the lighting? Example, making a cave a bit darker

look through the types of events you can put when making an event and see if there is a "Tint Screen" or something similar to that.
