[PBS Question] registering pokemon as trainers?

[LuminousDev]

So I'm putting in the teams for the Leaders and Elite Four, but when the game starts up i get this message.

[Pokémon Essentials version 17]

Exception: RuntimeError

Message: Undefined Trainer constant name: ELECTRODE,55,,EXPLOSION,THUNDER,SONICBOOM,ROLLOUT,0,M,,,,20

Name must consist only of letters, numbers, and

underscores and can't begin with a number.

In addition, the name must be defined

in trainertypes.txt.

File PBS/trainers.txt, line 174

It seems to be detecting the Pokemon's name as the trainers name? I dont understand. The error is occuring on the first elite four member, named Nikola. In trainers.txt and trainertypes.txt i have her put down over lorelei as
#-------------------------------
ELITEFOUR_Nikola
Nikola
2,FULLRESTORE,FULLRESTORE

and

67,ELITEFOUR_Nikola,Elite Four,100,Battle Elite,,,Female,,

respectively. What's going on?

It's possible that you messed up somewhere else in the file, causing it to think that Electrode is supposed to be a trainer.
Double-check all the other lines to make sure they're okay. You should also try removing that trainer to see if the error persists.


Do you have it set up exactly like this?

ELITEFOUR_Nikola
Nikola
2,FULLRESTORE,FULLRESTORE
ELECTRODE,55,,EXPLOSION,THUNDER,SONICBOOM,ROLLOUT,0,M,,,,20

If so, you're missing 1 Pokemon in her entry. Please include all of the relevant lines.

 

[LuminousDev]

I removed the trainer and it did the same thing to the next E4's (doug) Breloom. It's not the first Pokemon, Electrode is Nikola's third pokemon and breloom is doug's second, if that means anything.

 

[Judge Fudge]

If she has 3 Pokemon, change it to:

ELITEFOUR_Nikola
Nikola
3,FULLRESTORE,FULLRESTORE

The number in red defines how many Pokemon that trainer has.

 

[LuminousDev]

THAT was the problem! I thought that the 2 meant how many items they were meant to have! I fixed that, but now a new problem has come up and this is the crash report.

[Pokémon Essentials version 17]

Exception: RuntimeError

I really cant tell what this one means, it almost looks bugged

 

[Judge Fudge]

Perhaps your other trainers also need to have their numbers updated.
If you set it so a trainer has 3 Pokemon but only list 2, it'll crash; that number needs to be exact.

 

[LuminousDev]

That was it. The champion was hiding out at the very bottom with an innacurate number. it's fixed, thank you :D
