i made a givepokemon script and it works, but after i get it and talk to him again, he gives it to me again, and again and i can't get it to work! i want him to say something else after i get it and talk to him again.

The script below should work.You set the flag for the pokedex after you get the pokemon.Thats the flag it checks for inorder to give the pokemon.Just a small mistake.

Spoiler:
 
That's not the way checkitem works.
You do something like this:

Code: 
checkitem 0x172 0x1
compare LASTRESULT 0x1
if 0x0 goto @donthave

About the "sprite returning"... that's normal. Hidesprite will hide the sprite only temporarily.
Before the hidesprite command you need to use a setflag, which value is the Person ID you set.

Oh that got it working. Thank you so much!
 
I'm redesining the script for my first Pokemon in my hack... The problem is when the flag has been set. If the flag is not set, the script works fine, but when the flag is set, it automatically goes to the script in which it was not set.

Is this because the flag was set on a different map? Or something else (yes I set person id to 950)?

Ruby Version AXVE Script:

Code: 
#dynamic 0x800000
 
#org @start
checkflag 0x950

I've asked this before but nobody's answered so here it is again,

In this script everything works 100% except that after the trainerbattle, sprite 0x5 on the screen changes colour. Could somebody tell me the proper settings I should give the sprite?

Spoiler:
 
I am having trouble with the script for applying a movement.

Firered

I don't know the script I'm new to applymovement and I REALLy don't know what to put here, I have googled a LOT so i just took a screen cap and hope it works.

I basically need to make oak stop me from going wilderness (indicated by black dots) and make me go to his house. The reason this is difficult is... I moved his house :/

Spoiler:

Please help. Thank you

Oh, I was wondering because the Battle Pyramid can check for hold items, since it doesn't allow them.
Click to expand...
Did you check the scripts there? I'm pretty sure some specials are used.
Click to expand...
The special used is 0xEA(#234). It is used quite repetitively in this script, but it is the only one in the place checked.
I know the special command calls a 'special event'.
Is there a way to view this 'special event' and see how it works, edit it and such, or make a ASM code based off of it?
I'm still trying to learn ASM so this might be helpful to me to view this kind of stuff.

Yes, that's the problem. You can't use a flag for different things. Use another flag.

Instead of asking again (which isn't allowed at all), why don't you post your current settings?

There are tutorials about how to make movements, so just check them out.

I've seen many specials there, actually: 0x28 0x29 0x60 0xEA 0xF5 0xF8. So you should make sure what is used for what. Besides, I think you need something to check if a Pokémon is holding a particular item, right? In that case those special(s) probably won't help since they're only used to check if a Pokémon is not holding any items, as far as I understood.

But what if I want that event to happen only if other said event has happened. I don't want him to give me the pokemon whenever, just after a different event. Is there a way to do this?

You're looking at the wrong spot. The givepokemon part would occur only when flag 950 (which I assume is the flag in another map) is set, so no problem there.

Hackmew meant that to use another flag for the @done part. Without the flag, the person will always ask you if you want a ponyta.

Just replace aaa with an unused flag. (or flag 800.. well, maybe 800 is better -_-)

Of course, I could have misunderstood you. If you meant that whether or not the flag is set, the person always says @whatsup, then nevermind the above fixes and try using another flag.

Could that be the sprite switch bug?

Probably not :\

In this glitch, do 2 sprites on screen switch colour? Because that seems to be what's happening.

Well... sprite switch bug is... after a battle, your player's sprite changes (and colors to boot) and you'll have a limited movement. :\ Maybe yours is a similar glitch.. Try deleting the two persons in amap, then creating them again?
 
Hack of fire red
I'm using XSE
And here's my scipt. Btw its a level sciprt
Spoiler:


Wheni come into the room, everything works and such, but when the script is done, there's a textbox, showing random mumbo jumbo and symbols and such.
So any idea on how to stop said problem from happening?
 
PI Hudson said:
QUESTION: Is there a way to check if a pokemon is holding an item?




It works like this
-When you enter a map, it looks for level scripts
-In Oaks Lab, the script your looking for is #2
-If it is a #2 or 4 script, it looks at the Variable Flag (for this, it is 4055)
-It checks that this Variable for its Value (set previously, default is 0000) and if it isn't equal to the number given in the Map script, it doesn't activate. But if it is equal, it does activate.
(if MAP-VALUE>VAR-VALUE=not activate, if MAP-VALUE<VAR-VALUE=not activate, if MAP-VALUE=VAR-VALUE=activate)

In the script tile that we step on in Pallet Town to activate the script, we see this.


This means the next time we enter the Oaks Lab, the script will activate.

But, why doesn't it activate again?
In the Oaks Lab Level script, we observe this


This make it so you don't see this script again until the Var Value is equal again.

People kind of act the same way, but with flags.




Your welcome.

Ive been trying to make a script using this but its just not working. I can enter the area and it does the script,not supposed to do that.If i talk to the person and then warp to it, it doesnt work at all.
First is a person event.
Spoiler:

Second is a level script.
Spoiler:

It also continues to a third,which is another level script.
Spoiler:
 
Spoiler:

Well, maybe its because your not refactoring the script, after you do some edits? Change decompile options to strict and refactorised, then put that in.

So the changes in red are the things I assume.
The things I would change are in BOLD
I also assume that the level scripts are #02
Spoiler:
I am slightly new at this as you can see from my join date, but I think I understand the concept enough. Test it out and give the results, or maybe someone else will tell you a better solution.

It could be that you chose the wrong option in a-map, try #2, or #4. or like Kalsard said, the compile process might have been done wrong.

Well, if the above suggestions don't work, maybe this would help? Dunno... :\

Um, do you have a hex editor?

If so, open it and load the rom. In amap, go to the map with the level script, and then non professional header view.. Select the level script, then note the offset under "Script offset:" and go to that offset in the hex editor. There should be something like "02 70 01 00 XX XX XX 08" where XX is a pointer to the level script itself (the offset of the level script, reversed). Post the next 2 bytes after 08 here.

If not, open that offset (same, non-prof header view, under "Script offset") in xse and post what the decompiled script is. :\

Thank you very much! I {have pretty much understood this now.I had no value in a map,so nothing happened.
