Hi! First post on Pokécommunity here.
I'm using pokeemerald and I've implemented reusable TMs per the Simple Modifications thread. In gen 5, when infinite TMs were added, they were specifically coded so that TMs use the replaced move's PP (and if you were replacing it with a TM that had less max PP, it would just have the max PP). So for example, if you had a Pokémon that knew Psychic with 8 PP remaining, and you replaced Psychic with Return using a TM (which has 20 max PP), the new learned move would only have 8 PP (out of 20). This got changed in the later games, so in gen 6+ you can just spam TMs to restore PP.
This in my opinion is a dumb change, so I'd like to revert it to how it was in gen 5. I'm not too great at coding, but I believe the area to target is in src/party_menu.c, in the function Task_PartyMenuReplaceMove (or someone near that). If anybody has any luck or advice, I'd love to hear it! Thank you in advance.
