There we go, that should work fine.

You would need to hack the way the PC works and make it so you can't deposit anything if you have 2 Pokémon or less. And that requires ASM.
Out of curiosity, why would you need something like that?

Try this. /guess

All I did was add another Checkflag and @done. Edit it if you want. Hope it works.

I'm making a little test hack, that demonstrates for me little hacking techniques (Whether it be scripting, sprite editing, ASM, or whatever), and I'm sort of doing one thing of each in the hack, so if I need to, I can look back at it and understand how I did that. Later in my life, I will be making a full hack.

But, this one script has been troubling me. I simply put it on the floor on a tile that is darker than the rest, and whenever I step there, it freezes on me.
I've taken a huge break from scripting, and I forget how to do a lot of it. Can any of you tell me what's wrong with this? It is supposed to say a message, and then give you 10,000 dollars when you step on it. Of course, this can be done multiple times. The message should replay everytime you step on it, and you should get 10,000 dollars every time you step on it. The money doesn't matter, it's just to test a givemoney script.

Well, you should have lockall and releaseall in there, I think (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). Also, make sure you have the Unknown set to 0003 or 0030 and the Var Number set to 4050, 5050, or whatever you prefer.

HackMew said:

It's not 0003 or 0030. It's 0003. Period.

trebornosliw said:

Ah, okay then. I've seen a few people use 0030, but it was probably for something else. Thanks!

What about 0300? I usually do 0300 and 4050 and it works fine :P

Why won't this script work?

setvar 0x6000 0x0002
release
end

The character from the first section of the sprite starts running as accordingly but when $sol starts then he shows the "!" sign and starts running forward in the same place.

Also the message hey you is not displayed.

Can you help me out please? :]

Is there something I can do to disable a trigger script after it's been used once?
I'm using XSE.

@Hiche..

Eh, yes that works but it's not a very good method. The script will still actually activate (though the only commands that will run are release and end) which, though it seems harmless, can cause problems. For example, if the player triggers the script while the box that displays the current location is still showing, it will very suddenly disappear or, if the script is right on the edge of the map, effectively stop it from showing up altogether.

The way I would recommend doing it would be the following:

Code:

#org @yourscript
...
... // this is your script here
...
setflag 0x1000 // or setvar if it's a multiple part script
end

Then, in AdvanceMap, click on the little green S box that your script is assigned to and put '1000' in the Var Number box and '0000' in the Var Value box. What this does is it makes the script check the value of the flag/variable in the Var Number box (0x1000) and compare it with the number in the Var Value box (0x0000). If they are equal, then the script will run. If not, then it won't. The first time the player steps on that trigger script, the flag 0x1000 will not be set. However, at the end of the script, 0x1000 is set. The next time the player steps on that tile, the script will not run because the flag has been set and, therefore, is not equal to 0x0000.
