    First, use spoilers (just put [SPOILER*] before and [/SPOILER*] after the script, minus the asterisks), it's in the rules.
    Second, I highly recommend that you switch to XSE. It's not at all hard to learn after you've gone through the Pokescript basics, it's much more efficient, far less buggy, and people won't despise you for using it.
    Now, as for the script, there are a couple of problems I can see (keep in mind this isn't my forte).
    First, $yup needs to be a separate segment, so move it down. Second, it would be best to have a "closeonkeypress" command before "release, end" in $finish, to get rid of that box, though I'm not sure if that command works for Pokescript or not. You can always just add another message, like "Oh, okay then," instead.
    Corrections in bold, I'm doing the extra message for now.

    ...
    I have no idea what the #raws are for here. What was your intention with these?

    So I took your advice and added the extra messsage. I am currently using XSE but this particular script was made with notepad. The #raws were supposed to make the sprite dissapear so the player couldn't keep coming back for free pokemon. I've never attempted making the sprite disappear but after a little research, that's what I found.

    Ok, so I just made this script about an hour ago, and it almost works right. The only thing is when the guy leaves he is supposed to "push" me back, so I used jump down, then he moves, but when I get "pushed" I turn and face down and jump, and the guys is supposed to leave the room, but he just dissapears before he is supposed to. Anyone know what I am doing wrong. It is my first script so I am sure it is something obvious.
    Spoiler:


    Edit: I figured out I needed to change the position of 3 lines to fix the early disappear issue

    @sonlen:
    You forgot 'waitmovement' after those applymovement commands.
    Code: 
    applymovement 0xB 0x88006A7
[B]waitmovement 0x0[/B]
applymovement MOVE_PLAYER 0x88006B6
[B]waitmovement 0x0[/B]

    well, i'm new at scripting, and am following thethethethe's script tutorial, but this sign isn't working.

    #org $start
    lock
    faceplayer
    message $1
    boxset 6
    release
    end
    #org $1
    $1 1 = Thanks for playing the\lfirst BETA of this hack.

    it is for the very end of my first beta, on a sign that blocks a cave.

    THAT isn't working? This is why I don't use PKSV.

    Maybe try putting a space between end and #org $1?
    Also try just having this underneath:

    @Nikolai Fox:
    It's not PKSV, it's Pokescript.

    @siper x :
    It might be another problem, the script's fine. Use XSE :D

    Sorry, my other post got buried, so here it is again:

    Hey, just wondering, but when you set a level script, then you want that sprite in the level script to vanish after you enter the area again... What do you do? I have no idea, hidesprite only hides the sprite as I finish walking out the door, so I still see it for a second or two...

    Thanks for any help :)

    here is one that works, if you have more issues let me know, your problem was that you didn't make an offset for the game to reference to.

    • Alright guys, gonna need an advance scripter here pronto. This isnt recomended for lightweights.

    Heres the problem. when I use this script here, after it has been executed when I leave the current building, everything is black. Can someone tell me what is wrong with this script that would make it do something like that?

    Spoiler:

    I'm guessing my script was so epic it broke the game?

    Psychic, what game are you using (to determine what specials, flags and vars have been used), and there are three trains of scripts there, one for each dog. Does it crash for them all?

    • Firered, and the funny thing is... The script works to perfection. I know for sure its the script crashing the game because if I dont activate it, the game doesnt crash when I leave the building.

    While I have a look through the script in detail, a small suggestion. Instead of using the line textcolour over and over, incorporate that into your writing instead. It has multiple benefits.

    One, you can have more than one person talk in the same message box.
    Two, it makes the script smaller.

    EG: [blue_fr]Nice to meet you.

    Edit: I've only scanned through as I'm going out soon, but I can only imagine it's a problem with vars. Have you set the same variable multiple times, with one conflicting with eaither a tilescript, or a level script on the map that you enter after where the dogs are?

    No, its definitely not conflicting with anything in the room. I'll try reducing the script size and see where that goes.
