Script Help Thread (DO NOT REQUEST SCRIPTS)

[Tryndamere]

i think what is wrong is that there should be only 1 waitmovement 0x0

 

[Anselection]

I already had the spaces in the script. They just didn't copy over. And I tried taking out the second waitmovement. It still crashed XSE. I thought you were supposed to do a waitmovement after every applymovement so it could wait the appropriate amount of time for the movement? Thanks in advance to whoever can get the answer. /:

 

[Chimchar 9]

I have no idea why it isn't displaying the text :<

Did you set his person ID to 1000? If you haven't that would explain why his sprite is reappearing. I'm not sure why you put 'clearflag 0x1000' in org @done because that would be allowing you to repeat the script again - It may also have something to to with being able to see him again as well.

Okay, I've done everything you said. But the text is still not coming up, another thing is that the sprite re-appeared for the second time and once the script activated again, then the sprite disappeared forever and the script wouldn't work again. So, you fixed something I guess, but not all of the problems.

waitmovement 0x0 makes it so that it will wait just enough time for the applymovement to finish if you wanted it to wait some more you can use pause

Can you answer my question 2 posts above that one?

put a pause after the playsong command something like pause 0x5
and you cleared the 0x1000 flag after checking if it is done.. change it

Can you answer my question 2 posts above that one?

edit wait a sec
btw.. by crash do you meant that your XSE closes when you compile? or it just pops up a dialog box?

 

[Anselection]

As in, I click the debug button then it says "XSE has stopped working. Windows is looking for a solution to the problem." -Closes out- But, it doesn't do that for a basic talking script.

im just taking a guess but it might be from those apostrophes['] idk why though it should work even with the those in, i removed them from that huge chunk of text and its compiling now.. also one of your dynamic label done needs to be changed to done1

here's what'd it look like

#dynamic 0x800000

For Fire Red. This script is supposed to keep pushing you back until you select a Pokemon, then once you step on the tile again, it's supposed to take you to the Prof. But, it just freezes when I step on it. I set the unknown on A-Map to 0003 and the var number to 4050. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance.

I can see 3 errors in the first 3 lines after @start :D
Okay, lemme explain a little =)
1) Use flags that are over 200 (or better 1000). Flag 1 is imo already set for item script.
2) You must direct (which is goto command) to new string of script, you cannot direct to movement =)
So in your case it should be like this:
checkflag 0x1000
if 0x0 goto @string1
.
.
.
(continuation of script which is done after flag 1000 is set =))

#org @string1
applymovement 0x(number of person in hex) @1
waitmovement 0x0
end

#org @1
movement

Etc... =)) I hope you understand what I meant =)

disappear 0x1

The command disappear 0x1 is not working why?

Whenever I try to compile. It always says "Run-time error '13': Type mismatch"
I really need an answer for this. (Before any of you speculate, yes this is the starter script, and yes, the starter is Caterpie. I'm just THAT lame)

This one was weird for me... Somehow, it compiled when I removed the "…" and the apostrophe in your "can't" in that text.

...
msgbox 0x6 @BeforeWalkingAway
...

And here, it should be "msgbox @BeforeWalkingAway 0x6"...

...
trainerbattle 0x0 0x001 0x0 @before @after
...

Here, if you want your script to continue after the battle, it should be "trainerbattle 0x1 <trainer id> 0x0 <text1> <text2> <address where the script continues>"...

I haven't manage to fix the NPC to disappear, but I guess you can fix that one. Here's the new script.

Corrections in red.

Since you want the script to continue after you've had a trainer battle, you need to change the trainerbattle type to 0x1 and add a new address where the script can continue from.

EDIT: Beaten ;_;

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

The command disappear 0x1 is not working why?

Disappear command is very buggy... you shouldn't use it.
It's better if you make person disappear by using hidden movement.
