[Scripting Question] Damage + Disable Effect

[tyranitar28]

Hey guys, I'm having a little trouble scripting a move that does damage as well as disables the last move used. I've played around with it for a while, but it seems like even without the extra code if I put a base attack damage for Disable in moves.txt it just turns into a regular damaging move and doesn't add the Disable effect.

Is there any way around this? I don't believe I had this issue when I tried coding this move for another fan game in the past.

IIRC some effects only work as non-damaging by default. It's a pretty easy fix in the code though, try comparing disable to an effect that does work for both damaging and non-damaging moves (I think it's an extra function that's the difference).

Hiya!
I've moved this thread over here, to the Pokemon Essentials forum, since this is where you can ask for help with Essentials!
