Short tests showed positive results. Revert if it fucks up anything.
PureRGB enhances Gen 1 AI in various ways, fixing notorious glitches and making it not do completely stupid things. I would use shin pokered's, but it may be too difficult for unfamiliar players, and has a bunch of outdated markers I'd have to spruce up.
Relevant changes:
- Burn effect calls have been replaced with Fire Blast's effect, replicating the burn spread use-case of Fire Blast
- Teleport references removed because pureRGB uses a unique version
- Any straggler references to effects not used in pureRGB
- Mist properly referred to as we only have one move that provides stat drop immunity.
Updated the sprite gallery too!!
This is...most of the stuff necessary for the Battle Tent to work. I've faithfully restored most things so far, including doing a few grammar tweaks.
Main issue is that we get a really strange softlock when the Pokemon selection menu comes up. Not sure why, but point is, it can't progress to the next bit for debugging like this. Committing now to ask for assistance.
With me moving the Trainer AI elsewhere, I was able to optimise the party stuff a little bit. There's a lot more space and from what I can tell it works fine.
There are now three separate files - one for standard trainers, one for the rival & oak, and one for scaled parties (aka gym battles and related). This is mainly for organisational purposes.
If I run out of space again, I'll rework the Trainer AI script to pull parties another way, storing the party files in individual banks.
- Replaces the Old Rod with the Candy Sack, an item to evolve Meltan into Melmetal. Meltan and Melmetal aren't in yet.
- Improves Gym Leader and Elite Four AI by a lot. They still use items, they're just better. Fixes XSpecial use while we're at it; before, it didn't actually increase the stat...
- The Scarlet Book now takes up both shelves, one section for each Paradox Pokemon. I also moved the bookshelf so it looks nicer.
- Text in Celadon University has been reduced significantly, taking up less memory and being a bit more RBY-like. It has also been made more accurate (thanks to Daiginjo for translating my booklet!)
- The Magikarp researcher in Celadon University now gives TM Dragon Rage (no longer unused!)
- Added a guard for Mt. Moon Crater.
- Removed TrainerNamePointers, Blank Leader Name Code, and Dakutens/Hakutens using a guide published by YakiNeen.
- PP no longer uses a shitty graphic and is instead properly implemented into the font, optimising the status screen. Also displays in-battle which is kinda cool.
- Lorelei, Bruno, and Agatha now play the Gym Leader theme, not just Lance.
Still unsure how to fix Celadon University's trainers, all I know is a lot of the information should be taken from the Oak fight I did. The code is radically different and doesn't call trainer headers at all. You'll likely want to start from scratch.
The Mt. Moon Crater Guard's text is a little wonky, not sure what's up there. May have been from the way I accessed Mt. Moon in testing. Anyway, if you want to mess around feel free.
The old mnemonics generate warnings with new versions of rgbds. This
patch replaces them by the correct ones.
