This makes it so you don't miss the Bottle Cap gift that Yujirou gives you, even if you beat the Elite 4 before him. There's a similar issue with the Fighting Dojo where the same thing happens but I'm less sure on how to fix that one...
The reason was because not all the infrastructure for an actual battle was set up - this fixes it. It still has some strange text that appears though.
Also did some minor optimisations on the Vermillion Dock stuff - I think the direction I am taking Faraway Island will work. However, something in that script causes any and all special warps to crash in some way. I am not sure what it is that does it.
It felt weird that Koichi would have Gym Scaling, but Yujirou would not. So, I changed that to be a thing. I pegged his level scaling to Brock's, mainly because Normal-types are absolutely ballbustingly broken in this game and it makes sense from a progression standpoint. In doing that, I realised some variety in scaling (like, -1 +1, occasional 2 type stuff) could be interesting.
I also fixed multiple bugs;
- Gym Trainers correctly reset when you leave; no visible effect except to me debugging.
- Above also fixed Yujirou not having his loss sequence after, well, losing. Reported by shawesome.
- In fact, Yujirou will even display his loss text after losing, something I learned from doing Professor Oak's new Citrine Pass functionality.
Fixes the following bugs:
- Restores the Museum Guy's functionality that was removed when trying to allow Brock skip. Now works fine.
- Attempt to fix Yujirou's Sabrina-like glitch. If this doesn't fix it, look at Sabrina between RB and Y
- Attempt to fix some Misty text.
- Changed Squirtle check to use EVENT_BEAT_SURGE over the ThunderBadge. Same effect, saves a line of code, generally easier.
- Reverts a really old and shoddy DV generation system back to vanilla.
Also, I changed some gym/rival teams to reflect new philosophies from Discord discussion.
- Finishes the Vermilion Beauty event. One silly mistake involving the choice was fixed, and a workaround for wBeautyChoice failing in strange places implemented. Functionally the result I wanted.
- Implemented the Yellow spriteset for Vermilion City with minor adaptations. Fixes that funny issue I found on stream.
- Viridian Pre-Gym was fixed, reworking some events.
This is a large-scale compression of KEP's current hide/show constants. RBY's works extremely oddly and is limited to 256 entries.
The problem with how RBY's hide/show stuff works, is that even though there are tons of unused constants, you...can't actually remove them. The constant list is tied to the hide/show data entries, so if you replace it with something else, well, now you just have two objects tied to the same constant. If you made the Route 2 item a boss, and someone picked up the item on Route 2, the boss would also disappear, and vice versa. So, we have to get creative.
I have reduced what we have to 248, but I think I miscounted when doing the funny list somewhere in the actual list when making sure the hex stuff is ok. Either that, or there's an error somewhere that Martha will, by some obscene miracle of humanity, discover. Anyway, this was achieved by turning multiple current overworld items into hidden ones, keeping them in the game whilst keeping to that all-important limit.
I also removed the items in Pokemon Tower 4F for this, just needed a little boost. Well, as you can see by the number, I technically didn't, I just miscounted like 20 times. Look, it's 10:11 PM, my stomach is in pain from an insane injection, and I don't even know if that map will come back, cut me some slack. Or add it back. You definitely can.
So this isn't working very well. It's halfway there and worked exactly once with what I can only describe as a cosmic ray event.
Here's how it's intended to work: Right as you open the Card Key door, Omega comes barging through, having previously been fighting with Giovanni.
The walking and stuff seems to work, but there are three issues:
- Omega's battle doesn't start, causing a softlock. `call TalkToTrainer` seems to be the iffy point. Note that this code is usually used when talking to a static entity.
- The music bugs out as Omega walks over; this may be linked to the above problem.
- Once these issues are alleviated, Omega will have to disappear, but this isn't a massive deal.
Also includes a dev door in Red's room to easily access the event, and minor code cleanup with Viridian Pre-Gym and Oak's lab - just unnecessary comments.
This code has a lot of problems with solutions that me and Frrf can't seem to figure out. We've taken a lot of references from Erika's Gym but we've got many bugs after Yujirou is defeated, such as one case where you end up instantly doing the rematch fight, which is insane because there's no way this can actually happen.
What's committed is a fight that can be re-fought when it shouldn't.
This map is fully functional but has a lot of bits to iron out, as well as a need for Gym Trainers. I'm also not wholly satisfied with Yujirou's team; maybe remove Eevee?
Yes, I designed an entire tileset for this. Fear me. Bow before me. Actually, don't, this was beyond rational thought.
Current issues;
- Yujirou's sprite doesn't work properly.
- Needs Gym Trainers (hell)
- Yujirou needs an event for being beaten, the refight, and more.
