Hey,

I recently made a Steven trainer script. It basically progresses the trainer (Pokemon Fire Red) and after the battle the player needs to obtain a MysticTicket (for Navel Rock).

There are 2 problems:

1. When I win I don't get the item straight away. I need to talk to him again and then he'll give. But he'll keep on giving me the ticket which shouldn't be.
2. When I have the ticket I still can't go to Navel Rock (you need to activate a flag or something, but which flag, IDK).

Spoiler:

#dyn 0x740000
#org @begin
checkflag 0x251
if 0x1 jump :end
trainerbattle 0x0 0x1 0x0 @intro @defeat
msgbox @afterwards
callstd msg_normal

copyvarifnotzero 0x8000 MYSTICTICKET
copyvarifnotzero 0x8001 1
callstd MSG_OBTAIN
setflag 0x250
:end
msgbox @afterwards2
callstd msg_normal
end
#org @intro
= For many years I trained hard[.]\nOnce I was the champion of the Hoenn region[.]\nI want to take you on, right now!

#org @defeat
= You're a true POKéMON trainer!

#org @afterwards
= Hmm, I think you'd like this:

#org @afterwards2
= It's a ticket to Navel Rock[.]\nIt's the island of Ho-Oh and Lugia.

Basically what needs to happen:

1. If the player hasn't fought Steven, show message with @intro.
2. Start the battle with Steven (trainer ID 001)
3. If the player win, show message with @afterwards
4. Give the player a MisticTicket and enable Navel Rock access.
5. Show message with @afterwards2

And after that if the player talks to Steven again:

1. Show message with @afterwards2

I hope somebody can help me. I'm no pro in scripting yet so I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm using PKSV-UI.

I'm sorry if I'm being stupid but won't it start the trainer battle every time you talk with this script?

Spherical Ice said:

Nope! The trainerbattle command essentially checks if the trainer flag is cleared or not, and if it is it skips it entirely. You can take a look at how the vanilla trainer scripts are structured too, it works the same way.

I've made some decent progress now. ( I feel like a proud kid right now, "I did it all by myself!") Now, I don't have a specific problem but rather a question. Is it possible to set an NPC script to make changes depending on the direction they're facing when spoken to? The idea I have in mind will either require different movements depending on facing, or changing it to a level script instead.

Spherical Ice said:

Surely the easier option would be to check which tile the player is stood on and make the relevant changes from that? You'd need to look into the getplayerpos command.

U.Flame said:

Okay thanks, I might need a little help understanding how to set that up. If it's not too much trouble, can someone provide a simple sample script on using that command?

getplayerpos 0x8000 0x8001 // the X co-ord of the player is stored in 0x8000, the Y in 0x8001
compare 0x8000 0x4 // if the player's X co-ord is 4
if 0x1 goto @snippet1 // goto @snippet1

If you wanted to make Trainer 0x3D rematchable every time, you'd cleartrainerflag 0x3D as that is their Trainer ID. I think you're confused between the Person ID, for the event in A-Map, and the Trainer ID, for the Trainer, and their team, itself.

another 1,
this script makes the OW disappears but when the player moves, it appears again, even if I left the OW.

Set the overworld you want to disappear's person ID to the flag. In this case that would be 317.
