This commit adds a large fundamental change to KEP, that being Gym Rematches.
This is achieved alongside a rework to the script that makes those post-game-gating NPCs shift around. If you add a new one, just add its constant to the lists you'll see in the Hall of Fame script.
It also fixes a few bugs:
- Fixed a bug where Cinnabar Gym loaded a fleet of Blaines. This occurred due to the way he is coded at base, and a misunderstanding I had when implementing his scaling. This is now fixed by standardising his gym script instead, while letting the gym trainers still use the old one.
- Fixed a bug where the Up-Grade NPC would not appear after beating Silph Co. 11F. However, Giovanni currently seems to have trouble with his text. This floor needs some re-coding anyway, given we need to add Jessie and James to it.
And some misc. changes:
- Changed the first Moon Stone in Mt. Moon to a Poison Stone for the Nidoking speedrunners
- Debug Mode now has a line of code to set up the post-game easily
- Changed Surge's initial battle text to Yellow's
- Added Sabrina's more accurate LGPE initial battle text, referring to the spoon she bent by accident
This update does a good few things. Giovanni now uses his unused encounter theme in all pre-fights, which is followed by the regular evil trainer theme when you're about to fight him. This feels very correct. His team has also been minorly altered.
I backported LGPE's pre-fight monologue for Giovanni in Rocket Hideout B4F. Adapted for RB's story, of course, no Cubones here. The original text is very awkward and abrupt, and it also makes the encounter theme feel much more effective in delivery. I think a lot of people can appreciate this.
I also backported Jessie and James for Rocket Hideout B4F while I was at it. I had to change their event script quite a bit for it to fit, and their walking seems...awkward. Regardless, it's functional. The rest will be done with time.
To make future dev door testing easier, I'm keeping all warps I've previously used in comments.
- Fixed an issue where KEP's new static encounters would sometimes not disappear correctly
- Fixed an issue where boulders wouldn't fall down holes
- Fixed issues where the SS Anne Rival and Oak in the Indigo Plateau wouldn't appear, causing a softlock
- Fixed an issue where the Mt. Moon fossils wouldn't disappear
- Added several items back after they were previously removed
i dont know why
i dont want to know why
but this is needed to make giovanni work properly
there is no excuse for this terribleness
but please accept it
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.
Seems to interact oddly with Saffron but I believe this is because of the way Team Rocket works. The event itself works fine.
Also added the Up-Grade, as before, Porygon was evolving via Trade.
Uses text referencing LGPE, and has a similar location.
Because of the sprite limit in Saffron, the Pidgeot NPC has been removed.
