How to move the the foe battle platform down?

[AztecCroc]

What value do I have to change to make the battle platform's position further down as well as the the enemy trainer?

I'm pretty sure that is this section in PokeBattle_SceneConstants

  # Centre bottom of the player's side base graphic
  PLAYERBASEX = PLAYERBATTLER_X
  PLAYERBASEY = PLAYERBATTLER_Y+70

  # Centre middle of the foe's side base graphic
  FOEBASEX    = FOEBATTLER_X
  FOEBASEY    = FOEBATTLER_Y+[COLOR=Red]16[/COLOR]
  FOEBASED1_Y = FOEBATTLERD1_Y+[COLOR=Red]16[/COLOR]
  FOEBASED2_Y = FOEBATTLERD2_Y+[COLOR=Red]16[/COLOR]

Try increasing the number in red. For some reason an increase in y value seems to move the graphic down while decreasing it moves the graphic up. Hopefully someone else can explain why that is. I believe the trainer comes in at FOEBASEY already so if you move the base graphic the trainer should move with it.

What's to explain? That is by definition how it works. Nearly everyone uses the convention of having the origin in the top left as standard.

Interesting. It seems odd that they didn't set the origin to the bottom left so that it would match the Cartesian coordinates we use in math.

Top left is where you start reading a page of text from. I don't know how these conventions came about; I just follow them.
