Script Help Thread (DO NOT REQUEST SCRIPTS)

Status
Not open for further replies.
once again I have super-retard script tiles that decide to freeze the game when I step on them. It is supposed to display a message if flag 0x800 is not set, then move me back. If the flag is set, nothing is supposed to happen. But, all that happens is freeze.

Ruby version, using XSE
Code: 
'---------------
#org 0x3685B4

Hello Guys
Here's a script
Spoiler:


And here's what the Script supposed to do
I begin the game and I go to stairs but suddenly mom comes at the stairs and tells me to go to sleep as the next day i have to choose my pokemon from prof oak and remains standing there till i have not slept then when i sleep and wake up she is not on the stairs
This was what the script was supposed to do
But the problem is
Whenever I Press Compile in XSE it does not show me the Copy Button and only shows the logs
Please Anyone Correct me anywhere I am wrong in the script by posting the edited script again :|

No I mean when I click the Compile button I can't see the Copy Button :O

You don't need the copy button if you're using the numbers I gave you. But if you want to do the free space thing first, replace the orgs (like #org 800000) with #org @(whatever name you want to give) - then it will create a number for you that isn't being used and you can copy it. If you use the numbers I did to compile it, then 800000 would be the script number to place in the script box in Advance Map and 800057 would be the number to place in the signpost box. You can use those numbers (if they haven't been used in your rom yet), you can search for free space, or you can replace an already existing script in your rom that you don't need if you want - but the main code should work.

Now the first code is there to let me pass by when (a) I have no Pokemon, and (b) after mom has come and given me the stuff so that she won't come a second time, and it works. So it only calls the script if it hasn't before and if I have a Pokemon.

In the main script I want mom to show up, give me the running shoes, the town map, and the fame checker. I get the latter two, but not the running shoes. As you can see, I set the flag for the running shoes to be activated, I even changed the script var to the same one as the scientist who gives you the shoes, just in case. It simply won't activate the shoes, and I've tried a few different methods.

Any suggestions on what I should do differently?

Another buggy script...

So this script I have is made up of two parts, a green map tile which is supposed to call the person event, and the person event itself. (Thankfully, this time when I stepped onto the tile, it didn't freeze! It just did nothing... well its an improvement!) I have the Script tile's Var number set to 0905 as well as the person event for the person ID number.
What is supposed to happen is:

1. The game sets the "lockall" command into play.
2. A message box is displayed, and a "!" pops over my head and I face left.
3. The Professor's Sprite is unveiled from a couple blocks away (it was set to hidden on A-map before) and he starts to walk over to me.
4. We talk, I get item, and he leaves.
5. When the Professor's 2nd movement is completed, the sprite is hidden, and I go along my merry way.

The problem is that first off, when I step on the script tile, nothing happens. Also, if I press a (z if you will) where the sprite is supposed to be hidden, the event plays without the sprite showing up.

So I guess what I'm asking is:
How do I get the script tile to call the event, show the sprite, play the dialouge, and then hide the sprite?

Any help is much appreciated ^_^

The Person Event:

Thx for the help with the specialheal givepokemon script combo. Have a problem with the next applymovement script. He dosn't go where he needs to go. Th person should go 3 steps up first then 3 steps left and finally 4 steps up before ending up where he should end up.

Here's the script as i compiled it.

Can you help?

Well, first off, why use the script tile like that? Just give it the same offset as the Person event, that saves some space, and it would still work the same way. Also, and I see that happening a lot, your dynamic offset is too low. You could risk overwriting important data, so use #dynamic 0x800000. Thirdly, var number 0x905 is also too low. Try 0x5000 and up. They're never used by the game. (Except 0x80XX.)
And lastly, if you use setflag 0x905, you should put that as the People ID number for the Professor, and use a hidesprite command before setting the flag. And don't forget to move the setflag to AFTER the last movement, otherwise the professor will disappear before talking and walking away. You'll also have to include a setvar. For instance, use setvar 0x5000 0x1, and give the script tile Var Number 5000, and Var Value 0000.
 
hello again guys

I don't see a move script for the 4 steps up in your code. It looks like your code would make person 0x3 step up three, person 0xff face right, 0x3 and 0xff then step left three. EDIT: Also, I realized that person 0xff can't be a correct code, since it needs to be a sprite number, so am not sure what that's supposed to do?

I guess you'd need to add another move script like:

Code: 
@move4
#raw 0x11
#raw 0x11
#raw 0x11
#raw 0x11
#raw 0xFE

to make him go 4 more steps up?

Thanks, it worked when I stepped on the script tile! The only problem there is now is that the sprite doesn't show :/

Do I have the setvar command, or showsprite command in the wrong place, or is it because the sprite is set to "hidden" on A-map?

Feel free to make revisions:

I have a question for Firered.
My script doesn't work :
-The person event 1- Lugia- Does not move when it is supposed to
-Trainer battle does not trigger- it just freezes-
Thanks =)

Spoiler:
 
Well I'm not sure about Lugia, but the trainerbattle script doesn't trigger because on move7, there's no end of movements (#raw 0xFE) ergot the script will freeze.

Instead of showsprite 0x5, you might want to try an applymovement. If you have a movement list, somewhere you'll see a "Show" movement. Use that for sprite 5.

Well, you called those two offsets, so XSE treats the #raw 0x8 and 0x9 as commands, namely commands 8 and 9, gotostd and callstd. I guess you wanted movements, so use this:
