[Other Question] Why is a Banded, Tormented enemy not using struggle?

[derhasemithut]

Hello everyone!

I am building something similar to an escape room in essentials.
One riddle is about stealing an item (choice band) of a wild pokemon.
The goal is to torment the wild mon to make it struggle every other turn.

The problem is, it doesnt. im simply does not attack and just loses a round while the textbox says "its only allowed to use *move x*".

Why is it not using struggle? I did not find struggle in the move pbs either.

What can i do? Thx for any help!

Edit: Some testing showed me that Struggle is in the game. Apparentley Choice Items even prohibit struggle tho. Which it shoudlnt. Is there a way around that? The coding is kinda wrong there.
(understandable, its a very very rare occasion this happens)

So I went and looked into it. This seems to be an PE bug.
The choice Items do not let the move struggle be used if another move is locked. This will also prevent a choiced Pokémon from struggling once it hits 0 pp.
So the solution here is to add a struggle check:
In the Script

Battler_UseMoveSuccessChecks

in Line 45 we need to add

&& move.id != :STRUGGLE

to the end

so the line looks like this

    if @effects[PBEffects::ChoiceBand] && move.id != @effects[PBEffects::ChoiceBand] && move.id != :STRUGGLE

That makes it so that struggle can be used even if another move is choice locked.
