This finishes Chief's event, with all the necessary components for the post-game Mewtwo fight sorted as well. I added an event the Master Ball sets for modular monologue text, for improved immersion.
I have also fixed some bugs;
- Fixed the oft-reported walking in trees bug in the Forest tileset.
- Fixed the Oak's lab computer issue by just...removing the computer. I made the map symmetrical instead, feels a lot better to look at, at least for me. I think it was meant to have an event on it or something, but I couldn't find anything, felt like I was being gaslit.
- Hopefully fixed the issue with the border blocks going weird after saving and resetting, by making the tileset directly point to the gym one, which Oak is meant to use. I am not sure how that glitch happened for ViWalls.
- Fixed the Viridian Pre-Gym text scrolling issue.
I still cannot replicate the crash bugs that some people have been experiencing and don't see anything that could be causing it.
I also changed Trampel in Victory Road to Steelix, as mentioned by Gogocrafter.
Some of the wild data on these routes needs to be looked at long and hard. Many of them have an extreme amount of variance that ends up making it harder for players to find what they actually want - note that in these games, it does take a while to get through a single one. In general, reduce the variance. Some areas feel a bit chaotic as well, I noticed Barunda in a few places that felt off.
Victory Road has been refined, with the Hitmon repeats made more accurate to LGPE - they are encountered individually on different floors. I have upgraded much of the area's residents, such as adding Rhydon from FRLG and turning Onix, Graveler, and Marowak into Trampel, Crocky, and Guardia. Steelix is a worthy consideration. I've kept Machoke and Golbat to serve as "blanks" to KO for exp on weaker Pokemon the player may have. It could still be refined, but this is a step in the right direction.
I've decided to put Kotora in the "Pikachu slot" in Viridian Forest as a compromise for the lack of an early Electric-type when Pikachu isn't chosen. It's at Level 3, so it will take longer to train by comparison - thus, by this point, it cannot compete with the starter Pikachu, as that will be around Level 10-12.
