[Script] Flags reset when leaving the room

[MiinionX]

Hello there,

In a Romhack of Firered I'm making, I am having Copycat give Fairium Z alongside teaching Mimic, but I also want the player to be able to refuse Mimic and come back for it later (which I do using a flag, in specific 0x8). The script works currently but for some reason gets cleared when leaving Copycat's room. Any ideas on why?

Have you tried using a different flag? I'm not sure how the game handles 0x8.

Upon trying the same script with 0x4E the script seemed to work but the game thought the flag was already on

Just be careful which flags you use. Reference the list of flags here

So there are no unused flags in game then?

So anything not mentioned here is fair game?

Not necessarily. From what you said, 0x8 didn't work and that's not mentioned here. I know for a fact that 200 through 229 is fair game at the very least.
