[Script] Rival Battle Script Error

[DoctorKoolMan]

I am trying to get a script together where the players rival appears, walks toward the player, has a battle, and then walks away and disappears.

Every aspect works so far except after the battle ends the script comes to a hard stop and the sprite is back where it was initially.

If i walk back on the tile that should trigger the event the rival sprite walks toward me (like he did the first time) and then walks away and disappears for good like he was supposed to after the battle.

Is there a specific command I need to include after trainerbattle to ensure that the script plays onward?

Do I need to use the trainerbattle 0x1 command when including a battle in a tile script?

Here is the script I used.

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x904000

#org @start
lockall
checkflag 0x202
if 0x1 goto @done
showsprite 0x01
applymovement 0x01 @move1
waitmovement 0x0
call @battle
setflag 0x202
applymovement 0x01 @move2
waitmovement 0x0
hidesprite 0x01
releaseall
end

#org @battle
trainerbattle 0x0 0x169 0x0 @before @after
return

#org @done
releaseall
end

#org @before
= before

#org @after
= after

#org @move1
#raw 0x10

When using trainerbattle 0x0 the script will always end after the battle. You should indeed use another trainerbattle type. I recommend using trainerbattle 0x3, since that allows you to continue the script after the battle and has no bugs as far as I know.

Thank you for the info. Ill watch this through and give my script another go.

edit: yup making it a 0x1 battle with the addition @pointer going to every part after the battle made it workj flawlessly. Thanks again!

Glad it helped;)

The 0x1 trainerbattle could be problematic when used in an area where you're able to surf with wild pokemon. If you've been through a type 0x1 trainerbattle and encounter a wild pokemon in water you'll be unable to escape from the water afterwards. Therefore it's safer to use trainerbattle 0x3 instead.

This could also be helpful in understanding the trainerbattle command:
