You change EXPSHARE_FLAG and DISABLED_EXP_FLAG to whatever flags you want to use. Then you have to set those flags if you want to enable them. You can do so in a script by using "setflag 0x900" for example. For help with scripting here is an excellent tutorial you can read: https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=164276

But WHERE?? Where is the script? Where do I include this flag? How does it show up? Is it really difficult for someone to answer that question? Like, seriously, it's ridiculous.

Use safe flags instead of 0x900 and 0x0. And replace 0x900 and 0x0 accordingly.
And just use a script to set the first safe flag to 1.

Can you give me an example of that? The script?

If you want you can use an already set flag to make exp share always on. Flag 8C0 works (Running shoes flag).

...how come the guys who actually created this, their advice didn't work. But someone I don't know actually gives useful advice? Also, this broke Double Battles with Trainers. Yet it works with Battle Frontier Trainers. And don't give me that "your fault" excuse. I just checked with the patch up now, and the one I'm working on. The patch works, but the one with the current engine doesn't. k den

Are you seriously retarded? You don't know how to set a flag?
What patch are you even talking about?

My game, Theta Emerald EX. The one posted on my thread has double battles working fine, no matter if it's a regular Trainer or a Battle Frontier Trainer. But I updated the game using the engine, without touching anything, and double battles with regular Trainers doesn't work anymore. Battle Frontier Trainer Double Battles still work though.
 
It may be better to use another flag to turn it on and off when the hacker finds it necessary. I have no problem with double wild and trainers battle.

Send the patch and save. I'll look into it.

How come everytime you try something it doesn't work but it works for everyone else? Don't give us the "I followed directions excuse" k den

You need to have exp share in your bag. The EXPSHARE_FLAG is a flag that must be set for it to work too. The choice which flag to use is left to a hacker.
Same with DISABLED_EXP_FLAG. If it's set, the exp is temporally disabled.

To be completely fair, I was confused right with LC and had no idea what Dizzy meant at first either. I thought he meant "tell the py scripts what flags to use; zero means 'unset'", not "tell the py scripts, then set those flags in the game." Took me a good while to figure it out, tbh. Glad it's cleared up now. (k den)

Now that that's been solved..... I've found another bug! :P

I'm battling Sigilyph with an Electivire. Electivire uses Thunderpunch but misses. I've quoted you both because I don't know where the problem actually lies, but I'm posting here because my best guess is that it's the Engine. :P

According to serebii.net, Sigilyph has 3 abilities: Wonder Skin, Magic Guard, and Tinted Lens. Idk which 2 abilities LC gave it by default, nor do I know which ability the one I'm battling has, but, of the 3, the one that seems most likely is Wonder Skin. It makes "non-damaging moves that are targeted at this Pokémon have the accuracy of 50%." But Thunderpunch is a damaging move, so its accuracy shouldn't be affected... I could of course be way off and it could be the result of something else, but this seems most likely to me.

This is the Winona boss battle, Fortree Gym, Pkmn Theta Emerald EX. I'll even try to post a savestate. Edit: this is not the new version posted yesterday, but should be the previous one.

Yeah you were right, I forgot that Wonder Skin only affects non-damaging moves. Should be fixed now.
 
DizzyEgg, I think I find a little bug in the battle engine. When a pokemon uses the move thief in a wild battle, the item is stolen (I can see the stolen item held by my pokemon in pokemon menu). But after battle the item dissapears.

I'm testing it and this happens when #define ITEM_STEAL is false, if #define ITEM_STEAL is true the item doesn't dissapear after battle. By the description in config file of battle engine I understand that only afect to trainers battles, no to wild battles, or am I wrong?

I saw something similar with Trick, although mine was a trainer battle. Should my item be lost for Trick too?
 
er..im not sure if its a problem or sumthin but, when battling darmanitan in wild (either the zen mode/normal one) and the battle ends with the opposing darmanitan fainted, theres a creepy, straight out of exorcist, glitched up image of it overlapping the hp bar of my pokemon..? er but the the zen mode ability works and idk anything about programming
