Lava Surfing

Qosole said:

What terrain tag should the lava be? Also, how do you change the surf sprite and the lava surf sprite?

Terrain tag can be whatever unused number, just be consistent. The sprite used will be defined in your metadata.txt. I've mentioned these in the main post, please read thoroughly before asking questions.

I found an unused terrain tag, but how do you make it for lava surfing?

Bridge          = 15
Lava            = 16

Did you read the OP?

"In PokemonField, under module PBTerrain, add the red part

Code:

Bridge          = 15
Lava            = 16

16 can be a different number if you've added other tiles. As long as it's defined separately from other tiles."

Qosole said:

Not what I meant. In the database, there are only 7 terrain tags. How do you set it to 16?

Florio said:

You have to go into the Pokemon Essentials Editor. From there you can change the Terrain Tag from 0-99

This will show the raw text data in the post, without all the formatting. If you comment on this with a syntax error after I've told you how to solve this, I will not respond.

Follow all these instructions, and you'll be surfing on lava very soon!

In Settings, under

In Game_Map, under

In Game_Player , add the red parts to the following methods

          pbSEPlay("bump"); @bump_se=10
        end
      end
    end
  end

In Sprite_Character, in def update add the red parts

Spoiler:

Code:

if @character==$game_player && @tile_id == 0
      if $PokemonGlobal.surfing || $PokemonGlobal.diving [COLOR="red"]|| $PokemonGlobal.lavasurfing[/COLOR]
        bob=((Graphics.frame_count%60)/15).floor

      else
        sx = @character.pattern * @cw
        sy = (@character.direction - 2) / 2 * @ch
        self.src_rect.set(sx, sy, @cw, @ch)
      end
    end

In Walk_Run add the red part to pbCanRun?

Spoiler:

Code:

def pbCanRun?
    terrain=pbGetTerrainTag
    return Input.press?(Input::A) &&
       !pbMapInterpreterRunning? && !@move_route_forcing && 
       $PokemonGlobal && $PokemonGlobal.runningShoes &&

       !$PokemonGlobal.bicycle && terrain!=PBTerrain::TallGrass &&
       terrain!=PBTerrain::Ice [COLOR="red"]&& !$PokemonGlobal.lavasurfing[/COLOR]
  end

then (same section) under def character_name add the red part

Spoiler:

Code:

if $PokemonGlobal.playerID>=0 && meta && 
         !$PokemonGlobal.bicycle && !$PokemonGlobal.diving && !$PokemonGlobal.surfing[COLOR="red"] && !$PokemonGlobal.lavasurfing[/COLOR]
        if meta[4] && meta[4]!="" && Input.dir4!=0 && passable?(@x,@y,Input.dir4) && pbCanRun?

          @character_name=pbGetPlayerCharset(meta,1)
        end
      end

In PokeBattle_ActualScene add the red part
This just allows you to have a lava base during battles

Spoiler:

Code:

elsif $PokemonGlobal.surfing
      trialname="Water"
[COLOR="red"]elsif $PokemonGlobal.lavasurfing
      trialname="Lava"[/COLOR]

In PokemonField, under module PBTerrain, add the red part

Spoiler:

Code:

Bridge          = 15
  Lava            = 16

16 can be a different number if you've added other tiles. As long as it's defined separately from other tiles.

Right after this module ends, add

Spoiler:

Code:

def pbIsPassableLavaTag?(tag)
  return tag==PBTerrain::Lava
end

Same section, add the red part to def Kernel.pbUpdateVehicle

Spoiler:

Code:

def Kernel.pbUpdateVehicle
  meta=pbGetMetadata(0,MetadataPlayerA+$PokemonGlobal.playerID)
  if meta
    if $PokemonGlobal.diving
      $game_player.character_name=pbGetPlayerCharset(meta,5) # Diving graphic

    else
      $game_player.character_name=pbGetPlayerCharset(meta,1) # Regular graphic
    end
  end
end

Next add the red part to def Kernel.pbCancelVehicle

Spoiler:

Code:

def Kernel.pbCancelVehicles(destination=nil)
  $PokemonGlobal.surfing=false
  $PokemonGlobal.diving=false
  [COLOR="red"]$PokemonGlobal.lavasurfing=false[/COLOR]
  if !destination || !pbCanUseBike?(destination)
    $PokemonGlobal.bicycle=false
  end
  Kernel.pbUpdateVehicle
end

Replace def pbFishingBegin and def pbFishingEnd

Spoiler:

Code:

def pbFishingBegin
  $PokemonGlobal.fishing=true
  if !pbCommonEvent(FISHINGBEGINCOMMONEVENT)
    patternb = 2*$game_player.direction - 1
    playertrainer=pbGetPlayerTrainerType

          Graphics.update
          Input.update
          pbUpdateSceneMap
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

def pbFishingEnd
  if !pbCommonEvent(FISHINGENDCOMMONEVENT)
    patternb = 2*($game_player.direction - 2)
    playertrainer=pbGetPlayerTrainerType
    meta=pbGetMetadata(0,MetadataPlayerA+$PokemonGlobal.playerID)
    num=($PokemonGlobal.surfing) ? 7 : ($PokemonGlobal.lavasurfing)? 9 : 6
    if meta && meta[num] && meta[num]!=""
      charset=pbGetPlayerCharset(meta,num)
      4.times do |pattern|
        $game_player.setDefaultCharName(charset,patternb+pattern)
        2.times do
          Graphics.update
          Input.update
          pbUpdateSceneMap
        end
      end
    end
  end
  $PokemonGlobal.fishing=false

In PokemonMap under class PokemonGlobalMetadata, add the red part

Spoiler:

Code:

attr_accessor :surfing
  [COLOR="red"]attr_accessor :lavasurfing[/COLOR]

Slightly lower under def initialize, add the red part

Spoiler:

Code:

@surfing              = false
    [COLOR="red"]@lavasurfing          = false[/COLOR]

Lastly, same section, under Module PokemonMetadata replace this part

Spoiler:

Code:

GlobalTypes={
     "Home"=>[MetadataHome,"uuuu"],
     "WildBattleBGM"=>[MetadataWildBattleBGM,"s"],
     "TrainerBattleBGM"=>[MetadataTrainerBattleBGM,"s"],
     "WildVictoryME"=>[MetadataWildVictoryME,"s"],
     "TrainerVictoryME"=>[MetadataTrainerVictoryME,"s"],
     "SurfBGM"=>[MetadataSurfBGM,"s"],
     "BicycleBGM"=>[MetadataBicycleBGM,"s"],
     "PlayerA"=>[MetadataPlayerA,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers], 
     "PlayerB"=>[MetadataPlayerB,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers],
     "PlayerC"=>[MetadataPlayerC,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers],
     "PlayerD"=>[MetadataPlayerD,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers],
     "PlayerE"=>[MetadataPlayerE,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers],
     "PlayerF"=>[MetadataPlayerF,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers],
     "PlayerG"=>[MetadataPlayerG,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers],
     "PlayerH"=>[MetadataPlayerH,"esssssssss",:PBTrainers]
  }

And that's all the coding part. Three other things you will need to do.
1. Add Lava Surf as a move to moves.txt

Spoiler:

Code:

560,LAVASURF,Lava Surf,075,95,FIRE,Special,100,15,0,08,0,bef,"It swamps the area around the user with a giant wave of molten rock. It can also be used for crossing lava."

2. Add a filepath for each character in your metadata.txt (red part is the addition)
I'm just using the default surfing graphic, you can use a special graphic or whatever

Spoiler:

Code:

PlayerA=POKEMONTRAINER_Red,trchar000,boy_bike,boy_surf_offset,boy_run,boy_dive_offset,boy_fish_offset,boy_fishsurf_offset[COLOR="red"],boy_surf_offset[/COLOR][COLOR="red"],boy_fishsurf_offset[/COLOR]
PlayerB=POKEMONTRAINER_Leaf,trchar001,girl_bike,girl_surf_offset,girl_run,girl_dive_offset,girl_fish_offset,girl_fishsurf_offset[COLOR="red"],girl_surf_offset,girl_fishsurf_offset[/COLOR]

3. Just like with bridges, you'll have to add the terrain tag to lava tiles through the Editor. Otherwise they won't be seen as lava tags. Don't forget that the terrain tag has to be added to the tile individually on each tileset.

4. (Optional) Make Lava Surf a tm/hm move. I didn't provide this, but you can just basically copy surf and rename it.

I've provided a 4th gen style lava autotile you can use (credit to rayquaza_dot)

Note that while this allows for the graphics to change and work for fishing, this does not enable fishing while lava surfing, because I think that's just silly.
Tutorial is written for v15, untested for previous versions.
