Adding new functions to the Trainer's PC?

[silentgamer64]

I'm trying to implement an additional function for the Trainer PC that allows the player to do their banking. While the game doesn't crash when I run it, only the item storage works, and selecting "Banking" or "Mailbox" doesn't do anything. Here is the code I changed in the PokemonStorage script:

Spoiler:

def pbPCBanking
loop do
command=Kernel.pbShowCommandsWithHelp(nil,
[_INTL("Deposit Money"),
_INTL("Withdraw Money"),
_INTL("Exit")],
[_INTL("Deposit your Money."),
_INTL("Withdraw your Money."),
_INTL("Go back to the previous menu.")],-1
)
if command==0 # Deposit Money
if $game_switches[101]
pbDepositBank
else
#("You don't have a bank account.")
end

elsif command==1 # Withdraw Money
if $game_switches[101]
pbWithdrawBank
else
#("You don't have a bank account.")
end
else
break
end
end
end

This is what allows the player to withdraw and deposit their money from the bank. I also added in a check for whether or not the player has opened up a bank account yet, which is determined by switch 101. If they don't have a bank account, it won't let them access the banking menus.

I also squeezed in the "Banking" option in the pbTrainerPCMenu here:

Spoiler:

def pbTrainerPCMenu
loop do
command=Kernel.pbMessage(_INTL("What do you want to do?"),[
_INTL("Item Storage"),
_INTL("Banking"),
_INTL("Mailbox"),
_INTL("Turn Off")
],-1)
if command==0
pbPCItemStorage
if command==1
pbPCBanking
elsif command==2
pbPCMailbox
else
break
end
end
end
end

Long story short, I did something wrong here, but I'm not exactly sure what. Did anyone else here ever try adding in their own PC functions besides the default item storage and mailbox?

Uhmmm, just to give an idea on how you do it. Perhaps you can make the mailbox through eventing? When talking to the PC, first you have two choices: Use the Storage System or check your mail, and then you put all your branches.

You just have an error with your code. It's easier to spot if the code is indented properly, like so:

def pbTrainerPCMenu
  loop do
    command=Kernel.pbMessage(_INTL("What do you want to do?"),[
       _INTL("Item Storage"),
       _INTL("Banking"),
       _INTL("Mailbox"),
       _INTL("Turn Off")
    ],-1)
    [COLOR=Green]if command==0[/COLOR]
      pbPCItemStorage
      [COLOR=Red]if command==1
        pbPCBanking
      elsif command==2
        pbPCMailbox
      else
        break
      end[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=Green]end[/COLOR]
  end
end

Note my use of the

 tags, rather than [spoiler] tags. [code] is for code. Makes sense when you think about it.

The red part of this code is actually within the "[COLOR=Green]if command==0"[/COLOR] part, and as such can only be accessed when command equals 0. This chunk of code needs to be moved slightly, in a way I'm sure you can figure out for yourself.

Edit: Scratch that. I was still having issues. I'll try making the changes you told me to make.

Update: I figured it out. A big thank you to both Maruno and lolandbeer for helping me out. :) I'll post the revised code on here for anyone else who might want to do something similar in the future.

def pbTrainerPCMenu
  loop do
    command=Kernel.pbMessage(_INTL("What do you want to do?"),[
       _INTL("Item Storage"),
       _INTL("Banking"),
       _INTL("Mailbox"),
       _INTL("Turn Off")
    ],-1)
    if command==0
      pbPCItemStorage
    elsif command==1
      pbPCBanking
    elsif command==2
      pbPCMailbox
    else
      break
    end
  end
end

If you were to add a new function to the PC, what would it be used for?

he's adding a function to the PC in the player's bedroom. The one where you can store items.
