Hello! yes, this project is very much still alive, believe it or not. This update is pretty big, so I was thinking I should explain the new things more, compared to the other smaller updates.
- Regigigas quest has been added.
So yeah, the main thing of this update, the regiquest tm, basically just adding all of the Holoen arc with a nice twist at the end for extra suffering!
- Smoother EV inflaction.
So, in earlier builds, Detergent was just 3 gyms so I wanted to showcase/test all of the AI features, one of them being the "no EV cap", thus the EVs went pretty crazy after the third gym, so I fixed that in this update, the AI is now less bulky/strong for the most of the game. (also took the chance and made so the AI also has a scaling moveset, so in earlier in the game instead of a random earth power you get a random mud bomb)
- New Pokemon and new Deltas.
I added new Pokémon for the regiquest, it's pretty obvious what some of they are but I won't spoil them for you here.
Also please let me know if these new Pokémon are either too underpowered or too overpowered!
- Mod support, system similar to Pokémon Empyrean.
Modception baby!
Since vanilla Insurgence never opened itself for mod support outside of just boring cosmetic stuff, I added it myself (Thanks, Stochastic). As for how it works, its pretty simple, just drop compatible .rb files into the Mods folder inside of the Data folder. I am not responsible for any bugs and glitches .rb mods create, as such if you have any bugs, please remove any mods from that folder before reporting it.
- An optional sidequest in the postgame.
Just as it sounds, an nice optional sidequest for people that want broken moves and/or broken items while having some 'fun'.
- New Flinch System.
Something that always bothered me greatly was how flinching cheese is one of the easiest ways of breaking the game (that's the reason rock slide previously lost its flinch chance), as such I reworked it, here an example of how it works:
[Fake out -> Flinch -> Air Slash -> Can't Flinch -> Air Slash -> Can Flinch]
- Option to Move items between pokemon has been added.
- Adds more music. More music is always better, Detergent's Unoriginal Sound Track grows bigger every update!
- Bug Fixes.
- Propper Changelogs
- Added a NPC which tells you what hidden egg move your pokemon has.
- Balance changes. (Buffs n' Nerfs, as per usual)
- More Competitive-minded Items obtainable in the Main-game. (I know I will regret this, check Items.txt for their location)
- New items.
- Updated sprites. (Thanks Huber and Byomi!)
