I've been writing everything over the last couple months using Tokens and then dropping it into Wabbitemu. Tokens also builds appvars, which is what I am doing with all this item code. Each item corresponds to the item name stored in an appvar line by line. Then it's just a matter of copying just that code into a temp program and running that instead of needing a high overhead of RAM.

so, in other words, you have code in appvar and call it inside a temporary prog when you need !

'Nuff said

For my prog, I put all the data (except text) in archived appvars and only the executable program is in Ram.

tifreak · « **Reply #182 on:** September 03, 2011, 08:57:45 am »

That's essentially what I'm doing as well. I have certain programs in RAM. Others are in ROM and Resource is used to call those in to temp programs to run and deleted right afterwards. I'm also using progressive archiving, so when you start the game, it will archive prgmPOKEMON. Then when you go into a battle, it will archive the walking engine prgmZGA. If you go to switch pokemon, it will archive the battle engine. And of course, it unarchives as it goes back to those other programs.

So there is a time we see the "Garbage Collect" message ? :'(
In mine, only the saved game needs to be unarchived when I write in. But yeah, it has less details than yours.

tifreak · « **Reply #184 on:** September 03, 2011, 10:49:16 am »

Maybe, eventually. This is for the SE calcs though, so it won't be seen for a good long time.

And there isn't THAT many archives and unarchives being done.

So, working on code to use Ether. Right now, dealing with the battling Pokemon. This code is really giving me a headache. For the battling Pokemon, it redisplays the battle screen, then clears out the section of the text box and expands that to show the attacks. From there, you select which attack gets the Ether. I also have to re-clear a part of that, enough to redisplay the border/box so I can display the text.

If the item is not successful, I can thankfully clear the screen to return to the item screen.

If the item is successful, I have to clear out that entire mess and recall pic1.

And if you think this is bad.. The party Pokemon's code has to be written on the fly. Meaning it isn't like the battling Pokemon where it uses list L1. This code has to be compiled and dropped into a temp program to run, based off the |LP# for the list it is calling upon, on top of all the stuff I mentioned above.

Sorry to hear about the battle coding issues. Glad to see new updates, though.

Eh, it's fine. Just going to be a challenge :p And I mostly like challenges. lol

This is the code I've come up with (read: untested as of yet) to deal with using the item Ether. This code -only- deals with the battling Pokemon. The code for the party Pokemon is going to be many levels higher in complexity.

This would also be a good time to note that this is now the longest piece of code in the appvar ZITU. And it's nowhere near complete.

...Wow. That's one hell of a line. Hope it works!

AND IT GETS WORSE?

tifreak · « **Reply #190 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:52:30 am »

Yes. Because of the way I have the party system set up. There is a 6 element list, numbers 1-6, that keep track of which |LP# (there are 6, they are the stat lists for the pokemon) are in what order so you can move the pokemon around in your party. Since they are ever changing, I have to make the code for using items on the party pokemon quite dynamic. So it has to create the code, dump it off into another temp program, and then run it.

tifreak · « **Reply #191 on:** September 09, 2011, 08:35:39 am »

Just shows that the ether works successfully. The first time

Now to write the code to use Ether on the party pokemon.

imo_inx · « **Reply #192 on:** September 09, 2011, 08:38:18 am »

You need to add Rotom.

Did you asign the power points for each move to variables?

tifreak · « **Reply #193 on:** September 09, 2011, 08:49:49 am »

Rotom?

And the stats for each pokemon are stored in lists. 56 element lists.

Rotom?

It's a 4th gen Pokémon.
