NPC Character takes over from my player character...

[Jehowi]

So as I was testing my rom, this happens:



So basically, after the battle my playable character freezes and the NPC right next to the character I battled takes over from him. What am I doing wrong?

This is the script of the guy I battled:

#org 0x878F28C
'-----------------------------------
checkflag 0x237
if true jump 0x878F2AC ' Flag is set
trainerbattle 0x1 0x8 0x0 0x878F2B5 0x878F2D6 0x878F2A8
end

#org 0x878F2AC
'-----------------------------------
msgbox 0x878F301 ' You might even be ab...
callstd MSG_LOCK ' Built-in lock command
end

#org 0x878F2A8
'-----------------------------------
setflag 0x237
end


#org 0x878F2B5
= Prepare to get your butt kicked!

#org 0x878F2D6
= Maybe I should try punching you\nnext time!

#org 0x878F301
= You might even be able to\nchallenge our sensei!


And this is the script of the guy right next to it. The basic idea is that I have to beat the two guys next to him first before i can challenge him, and it USED to work when I tested it outside of the cave :(

#org 0x878F4EB
= My name is ANTHONY! I'm a P1\nGrand Prix Champion from the\lKANTO region. I don't take on\lrookies. If you wish to challenge\lme, beat my pupils first!

#org 0x878F491
= So, you managed to beat one of my\npupils. Impressive. But can you\lbeat the other one too?

#org 0x878F57F
= I really enjoyed our battle. I am\nalways in for another round!

#org 0x878F6F2
= I bite the dust again.

#org 0x878F6BB
= I'll be training here for a while\nif you ever need me.

#org 0x878F5BE
= I enjoyed how you smashed my\npupils to pulp. But I'm in a\lcompletely different league.\lPrepare to be crushed!

#org 0x878F62C
= I can't believe it...

#org 0x878F642
= You're the real deal, kid. This is\na gift from me to you. May it help\lyou on your journey in the most\luncertain moments.

Truth be told, All the scripts I tested before in the hometown stop working in that cave. I also made a script where I could have a re-match with someone, and it worked fine before. So I implement it in my real game (i use backups to try my scripts first) and now all of a sudden it doesn't work anymore all of a sudden. What happens is either the game thinks that you're having two battles at once and it calls the same pokémon twice in a double battle, or it immediately freezes when I approach the trainer. I'll share that script as well, cause you never know if anyone finds what's wrong with it all of a sudden.

#org @nomessage1

#org @loseagaintext
= You're too strong.

Well... I completely deleted all of my events in that map and rest all the movement permissions. I then saved my file, restarted advance map, added the movement permissions and events again, and now they all work flawlessly. I have no idea why though. The scripts are all the same. So if anyone knows why it does that, feel free to enlighten me.

You're using a bugged "look down" behavior for one or more of your NPCs.
You should use the first "look down", and not the second one.
