    Script freezes the whole game up, its in XSE if you know what is wrong please tell me, and dont just post the revised correct script, tell me why it was wrong.

    Thank you!

    There's no need to split your script in all those parts, you're wasting all those goto. Also, after each applymovement(s) you need to put waitmovement.
    After each setweather you need to use doweather, or it won't have any effect. After each msgbox/message you need to put callstd/boxset.
    The cry command was wrong as well. Don't forget you must use setflag to hide a person permanently. In the fixed script I used flag 0x1001, don't forget to set the People ID accordingly.

    Last, but not the lease... since I suppose it's a trigger script (those green "S" you can walk in), make sure you set the values like this:

    If you want you can use XSE, I'm pretty sure your fixed script will work fine:

    Hey I just started scripting and im trying to use a give pokemon script but its messed up when I talk to the guy it says "This tree looks like it can be cut down" heres the script.

    Can anyone help me?

    Why not trying XSE? I fixed and adjusted the script for you:

    Ugh. I am sorry for being such a total noob at this, but I cannot get this damned scripting to work for the life of me. I'm also entirely unsure if I'm using XSE correctly, so allow me to throw myself at your mercy and admit my own lack of competence :(

    Okay. So I have this PART of a script I'm working with.

    Spoiler:


    What I'm trying to do exactly is have this character walk into Oak's lab, walk up three spaces and over seven to the left, look up and then talk to him about whatever I choose. Then, select one of the three pokeballs between the two, with that nice little picture popping up and the "DO YOU CHOOSE SO AND SO TO BE YOUR LAWFULLY WEDDED WI--I MEAN POKEMON COMPANION" jazz to go on. However, I can't get the script to work and also, whenever I try to compile it I get two new numbers at the bottom, so I substitute those into the script and then I get two entirely new numbers.

    Also, what would you suggest I should use to check for the unused flags? I don't really know what to use to do that.

    As I said, I used to know what I was doing and now I do not. I've spent hours examining the scripts in the original game to do so, and I've confused myself into scripted oblivion. Help!

    Your script is as confused as you, indeed.
    See the fixed one, and hopefully you'll learn something new:

    Ninja Caterpie, I think he doesn't move, because there isn't any waitmovement 0x0 under the applymovement commands

    I'm trying my damned hardest but I'm just not figuring this out somehow.

    #dynamic 0x801111
    #org @start
    lock
    faceplayer
    checkflag 0x1000
    if b_true goto @snorlax
    message @bulbasaur
    boxset 6

    #org @bulbasaur
    = You received a BULBASAUR!
    givepokemon 0x1 0x5 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0
    setflag 0x1000
    release
    end

    #org @snorlax
    release
    end

    That should make a Snorlax give you a bulbasaur lv.5 (don't ask) and not give you one again when you talk to this person, but when I compile it I get a few numbers (one for snorlax, start and bulbasaur). I'm not sure what to do with them and I'm not really ever getting any answers that help me out since I'm at a total loss when I try to script. Help?

    Copy the one for start and put it into the "script offset" slot for the person event in AM.

    Indeed. You're not comparing the PLAYERFACING var correctly.

    Code: 
    compare PLAYERFACING 0x2
if B_TRUE goto 0x82DD9B5

    - or -

    Code: 
    compare PLAYERFACING 0x2
if 0x1 goto 0x82DD9B5

    How would I go about making clock-based events and scripts in Ruby?
    Is there a special or a command?
    Also is there a command or way to make a script where the main player's OW changes? (Just like in CBM's Prism)

    You can't use that many setflags in one script
    so I got it to run off the opkemon script and pokedex script

    You can use a lot of flags. I used 20 flags in a script once.

    >Lilfabro: I really can't think of anything wrong now, but check for any grammatical mistakes in the commands. Also, the applymovement 0x04, are you sure the person's event number is 4?

    I didn't say that. I told him before to put it 0x01, and the person moved. I don't know why it's 0x04 now.

    Lilfabro: Try recompiling the script, if not, then simple use XSE.

    It depends on you, I may suggest you the GoldRoad assembler.

    What about decompiling some in-game script? There are a lot of working examples :)

    Well, you may want to try this script with XSE. Don't forget to set 1001 as People ID.

    Spoiler:


    Edit: just to let you know, the guy got his script working fine thanks to my help, no further help needed so far :)

    Also is there a command or way to make a script where the main player's OW changes? (Just like in CBM's Prism)

    Try using XSE To open up the script for the Berry Master's Wife in Ruby Version.
    Follow the script through and read it, to find out the 24 hour based Flag.
    (I would just tell you it, but I lost my list of clock based flags... I had an entire list made up...)
    The Berry Master's Wife is just 1 of the flags that run on the 24hour clock, There are a bunch more, (Like the lottery one, and the Berry Master himself) Look around for them. (I know this is the same thin HackMew said,, but I wanted to give the person somewhere to start looking you know?)
