[Umbrellasia]

hello, can you upload this project to github, i believe it will attract people.

 

[OgreDevil632]

Hi Darkwolf13



I tried out v3.0.0b, the update you made to the Field Effect Project on the 19^{th of} January 2025. I encountered a problem related to the move Bug Bite. When the move is used by the opponent Pokémon, it gives this error message:



[Pokémon Essentials version 21.1]

[v21.1 Hotfixes 1.0.9]



Exception: NoMethodError

Message: undefined method `is_berry?' for nil:NilClass



Backtrace:

This is when I downloaded the latest version of the Field Effect Project, and I did not add any additional plugins. I can't quite tell what's going wrong with the version of Deluxe Battle Kit the download of the Field Effect Project comes with. Because when I change the move properties of Bug Bite in moves.txt, to have None as its function code, meaning it's an ordinary attack move, the game does not throw an error message and soft lock the game repeatedly, until a paralysis check paralyzes the opponent Pokémon. I thought it would be best to alert you to this problem I encountered. I first found out about this problem on the 23^rd of January 2025.

 

[DarkWolf13]

That is strange. I'm doing a test battle with an opposing Pokemon with Bug Bite and the move works as intended. Do you know if this was done in a field? If so, which field was it so I can test. And did you do a fresh download and a fresh restart of a new save? You might need to erase your old save and start anew.

Hi Dark Wolf

This time, I downloaded the source project from here on Poke Community. I cleared out all my save files that were leftovers I overlooked when I was crafting my own build of Essentials. I did a test battle against the Team Rocket Grunt in the stock maps that come with Essentials. When fighting Burmy in a battle with no field effects active, on Route 7 of Essen, the stock region map that comes with Essentials, and it uses Bug Bite. This happens:



I have made zero edits to your Field Effect Project when testing again the Bug Bite crash issue. And this is the PBS data of the fight on Route 7, in a normal trainer battle situation, in a battle with no Field Effects active:



And just like before, if this crash happens and the opponent of player Pokémon using Bug Bite don't get affected by Paralysis, the game soft locks. This issue happened in the exact same way, before I cleared out the possibility of leftover data affecting things. And after clearing out leftover save data.

 

[DarkWolf13]

That is strange... also, those trainers in the Essen route I left untouched because the primary focus of the game itself is the Battle Tower.

I went to that particular trainer and tested it out and had Burmy use Bug Bite on me, and I had Static but I did not get the error.
Edit: AH, I SEE..!! The error occurs AFTER the berry was stolen and eaten and the move was attempted again. That was my doing because I had changed Bug Bite and Pluck to deal extra damage if the target was holding a berry. Thank you for sharing this and I'll see to a quick patch to solve this immediately.

 

[DarkWolf13]

Added a fixes link underneath the main link. Put it into the game's main folder and simply extract and replace all files within it. If you had made any changes prior, BACK UP the folder first.

Added a fix with Bug Bite/Pluck

• Bug Bite and Pluck no longer deal extra damage as it caused a bug when attempting the move again after successfully stealing and eating a held berry.

I just tested the Fixes Patch for 3.0.0. Bug Bite is working as intended now. The game no longer soft locks when a Pokemon in a regular battle with no field effects use Pluck or Bug Bite. Good job on making the fix!

Kudos for releasing an alternate version of Pokémon Essential 21.1 featuring Pokémon Reborn's Field Effects. I had wondered why so many rebornian fangames were still based on version 17 of Essentials. Does the battle AI in this version take into account all these terrain changes? (I know that at Reborn, their combat AI script is almost 1 Megabyte)

For my part, I entirely coded my Field Effects on my fangame, based on an old version of PSDK.
Here is the full documentation. Maybe it can give you some ideas.

https://www.sacredphoenix.fr/res/Telechargements/PDF/GDD/Field%20Effects_EN.pdf

I have a holistic version of Field effects: so it encompasses weather and other terrain effects that aren't explicitly a battlefield or climate effect.

Thank you. The Battle AI I will have to take a huge look into once I have the Tower rosters in every field challenge ready and set. There are a few glaring issues I have been seeing such as the AI favoring NVE moves at times like Knock Off but maybe cuz it prioritizes slapping down the opponent's item away. Also, 2-two moves ALWAYS targeting the right-most Pokemon in Doubles/Triples like I have a Steelix on the right and the opponent chooses Meteor Beam but targets Steelix, not Steelix's partner who is weak to the move. I would love to find a way to stop that. I don't plan on adding any more fields since it had taken me a few months before finally having all the fields from Reborn/Rejuvenations working (BAR MIRROR FIELD, sorry but a field that encourages accuracy hax is definitely not what I wish to have here.) Plus these fields, as I said in the first post, function different to their games of origin since I don't know how to effectively change the field bgs midbattle, so I chose not to include the transitioning effects and removed field damage overall. This project is still ongoing but going slow since RL stuff and working alone on this.

 

[Amras Anárion]

That's why I shared my own game design, hoping that this can help you complete what you're missing.
I managed to code all the features myself (barring the addition of a second type, as this Pokémon Reborn mechanic was absent from my game design).

BTW, here is the mother script of my Field Effects. (The forum does not allow sending *.rb files, I renamed the extension to *.txt)
You can see it in action by downloading my fangame. (Which will allow you to see the few hundred method calls from the BattleEngine involving the Field Effects). Even if it's not on Pokémon Essentials, on PSDK, it's still Ruby, so the same programming language.

Amazing plugin(?) addon? template? So far the most polished when it comes to Field Effects in 21.1
It's nice how it integrates with other plugins and modern mechanics, most importantly plugins relating to DBK.
I just had a couple questions regarding the project itself and future plans:

1. Could there be an option to re-enable the damage/poison/nerf effects removed in 3.0.0b, I'm sure some gamedevs would like to have them for certain occasions.
2. Any plans to support DBK's Dynamax Add-On (or at least make it so that Dynamax doesn't work on the Nostalgia Field like other Battle Gimmicks)
3. Would it be possible to have "Field Notes" or more detailed descriptions in the Enhanced Battle UI menu?
4. Do you think the fields could have issues with the "Innate Abilities" plugin? I've tested a few interactions and I haven't found any problems with the Flower Garden Field at least.
5. Any plans for major updates? I'm particularly wondering if you'll update the fields to work alongside the DBK's Raid Plugin when it releases.
