Modify Start Truck Warp Location

Zanlan · Mar 27, 2024

I want to change the map destination of the inside truck starting sequence to my new map.
I made two new maps for InsideOfTruck (STARTING_TRUCK; basically a copy) and the first town (MAP_FIRST_TOWN).

First I changed the warp destination of WarpToTruck to the new truck map in src/new_game.c

Code:

static void WarpToTruck(void)
{
    DebugPrintf("Debug WarpToTruck");
    //SetWarpDestination(MAP_GROUP(INSIDE_OF_TRUCK), MAP_NUM(INSIDE_OF_TRUCK), WARP_ID_NONE, -1, -1);
    SetWarpDestination(MAP_GROUP(STARTING_TRUCK), MAP_NUM(STARTING_TRUCK), WARP_ID_NONE, -1, -1);
    WarpIntoMap();
}

The trigger inside the truck:

Code:

Script: StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlags
Var: VAR_LITTLEROOT_INTRO_STATE
Var Value: 0

Map scripts in data/maps/StartingTruck/scripts.inc

Code:

StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlags::
    lockall
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_MAP_NAME_POPUP
    checkplayergender
    goto_if_eq VAR_RESULT, MALE, StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlagsMale
    goto_if_eq VAR_RESULT, FEMALE, StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlagsFemale
    end

Not neccessary because I want both gender to start on the same location. Could reduce it in one script.
They start the following SetIntroFlags

Code:

StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlagsMale::
    setrespawn HEAL_LOCATION_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_BRENDANS_HOUSE_2F
    setvar VAR_LITTLEROOT_INTRO_STATE, 1
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_MAYS_HOUSE_MOM
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_MAYS_HOUSE_TRUCK
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_BRENDANS_HOUSE_RIVAL_MOM
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_BRENDANS_HOUSE_RIVAL_SIBLING
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_BRENDANS_HOUSE_2F_POKE_BALL
    setvar VAR_LITTLEROOT_HOUSES_STATE_BRENDAN, 1
    setdynamicwarp MAP_FIRST_TOWN, 6, 15
    releaseall
    end

StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlagsFemale::
    setrespawn HEAL_LOCATION_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_MAYS_HOUSE_2F
    setvar VAR_LITTLEROOT_INTRO_STATE, 2
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_BRENDANS_HOUSE_MOM
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_BRENDANS_HOUSE_TRUCK
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_MAYS_HOUSE_RIVAL_MOM
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_MAYS_HOUSE_RIVAL_SIBLING
    setflag FLAG_HIDE_LITTLEROOT_TOWN_MAYS_HOUSE_2F_POKE_BALL
    setvar VAR_LITTLEROOT_HOUSES_STATE_MAY, 1
    setdynamicwarp MAP_FIRST_TOWN_PROFESSOR_LAB, 5, 14
    releaseall
    end

For debug purpose I setup a DebugPrintf for X,Y coords in src/overworld.c

Code:

void SetDynamicWarpWithCoords(s32 unused, s8 mapGroup, s8 mapNum, s8 warpId, s8 x, s8 y)
{
    DebugPrintf("Debug SetDynamicWarpWithCoords");
    DebugPrintf("d mapgroup: %d, mapnum:%d", mapNum, mapNum);
    SetWarpData(&gSaveBlock1Ptr->dynamicWarp, mapGroup, mapNum, warpId, x, y);
}

Log file: First try for male, second for female.

Code:

[INFO] GBA Debug: Debug SetDynamicWarpWithCoords
[INFO] GBA Debug: d mapgroup: 0, mapnum:0
[INFO] GBA Debug: x: 6, y:15
----------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] GBA Debug: Debug SetDynamicWarpWithCoords
[INFO] GBA Debug: d mapgroup: 0, mapnum:0
[INFO] GBA Debug: x: 5, y:14

The problem:
Both gender start in the middle of MAP_FIRST_TOWN (X 20 / Y 15) (40 / 30 map), even when female got another starting location.

X, Y coords of "StartingTruck_EventScript_SetIntroFlags" get through but not the mapgroup and mapnum?

Is there a mapgroup mapnum error and MAP_FIRST_TOWN is in the first(0) MapGroup and first(0) MapNum?

What is wrong here?
I just started and got no more ideas XD
HELP!

HELP!

If you're warping into the middle of map (0,0) it sounds like the warp you're taking is set up wrong.
Is the destination of the warp in StartingTruck set to use the dynamic warp like the warp in InsideOfTruck?
