Nah, I'll just edit my posts.

Uh. What do you mean?

... is it? Ayiyiyiyi. So um, where has Graham been that Josh has?

How much do you know about the Map Header view in AdvanceMap? You make the new map, add the events you want, insert it into the game. Go to the Header view, go to Professional Header view, and then copy the map footer offset and event offset. Go to the original Pokémon Center map, copy the map footer and event offsets from there, and switch those offsets for those two maps. Now, the original Pokémon Center map looks like the new map, and the "new" map looks like the original Pokémon Center map. That'll mess up all the warps, unfortunately, so you have to fix those. So you can make a custom Pokémon Center that you're automatically teleported to when you faint, without messing up the maps of all the other Pokémon Centers.

... Sorry if that didn't make much sense. Are you planning on doing that yourself for some hack? I could give a better explanation if you want to use it.

Okay, that's fine. When you're done, send me a screenshot of what you did so that when I put the map into the game, I can duplicate the custom tile without having to insert a modified tile set.

By the way, I figured out a workaround to the PokéCenter flag problem. So we're good to go there.

I've found a flag that looks like it does that: "set healingplace 0x#". I can't change yet what makes each healing place a healing place.

I think I've almost got a work-around, though. We'll see.

Yeah, that's what I'd been planning on doing. But the problem is, I need to make it so that you're not sent to "real" Pokémon Centers and only to Team Rocket centers when your Pokémon faint. There are map scripts that go in each Pokémon Center that tell the game which center to take the player to when he faints; so, if you walk into the Saffron Pokécenter, the next time you faint, that's where you're sent. I tried to put that map script on my "custom" Pokécenter and delete the map script in the original Pokécenter. But when I did that, walking into the custom Pokécenter tells the game that the next time your team faints, you should go to the REAL Saffron Pokécenter, not the one I made. Makes no sense. I can't figure out how to fix that. So, unless I can figure out what the problem is, it looks like I need to turn "real" Pokécenters into Rocket base rooms if I want them to act right. This is a problem, because each base has a different-looking room, but I can't do that if I have to make them all the same. Plus, if I want to leave some towns with normal Pokémon Centers (for example, in Viridian City, the Nurse Joy there obeys the local gym leader's order to heal the Pokémon of Rockets), I can't do that.

The hack's going slowly, but pretty well. Haven't run into any bugs yet, just a few inconveniences. (The most annoying is that, apparently, you can't change the map of one Pokémon Center without changing the maps of ALL of them to match. Yeesh.) I've got a few work-arounds, though, and other than that things are going pretty well. I'll just fix the Saffron and Lavender Pokémon Centers for the alpha and think of something else later.

Hope you'll have time to do the map next week. If you don't, it's a long time before I'll be scripting Johto, so it's not a problem for the time being.

Well, that's too bad... But I'll see you in our RP then

You'll just have to wait and see, my friend. But you have to sign up fast because there are only six open slots besides FrozenSnowman and myself.

FrozenSnowman and I are going to make a new RP soon And the EPIC BATTLE OF FROSTY GORGE is going to start soon followed by the Time-Break and opening of the new Uprising thread
Brrraaaaaaiiinnnnnzzzz....
