Not a bug [0.20] Route 32 Not Accessible

[TrainerRed]

Despite having already obtained the badge from Violet City, the first NPC directs my character back to the gym and refuses to let me pass. I have already checked my save file (player.dat and register.dat) to confirm that I have the badge.

Have you cleared the Sprout Tower ?

Have you cleared the Sprout Tower ?

Yes, though I did not check my game file to ensure that it states that.

I have completed the have HM1 in my bag, and my save file reads that I completed the Sprout Tower.

I had the same issue, modifying the badge number to 9 let me walk through

Strange. There is not even 9 badges implemented at the time, as far as I know. I turned diagonal walk on and went into the spot in front of the NPC in a direction opposite of him and the game pulled me into the NPC but I was allowed to walk freely out in the direction that was previously not accessible.

when i received the badge it was marked as 9
maybe that means it is badge nine(as in after kanto)?

edit: just confirmed it by writing , 10 after the 9 and the azalea badge showed up in the badge spot
this is under the player.dat file in the save folder

I edited the number of badges and now the NPC allows me to pass. Shouldn't that badge have been number 1 even if other regions are going to be implemented later on? I mean, it is just Johto as of now.

if you go to your name on the start menu in game it will display Kanto badges on one line and johto on the next
in the badges portion of the player.dat file it will keep a list of which badges you have earned by the bagdes number so if you have both the cascade badge and the glacier badge you will have
Badges|2, 15
as the seventh line of your player.dat

the (likely) reasoning is that kanto is older so it goes first even if you use johto as the main region

Strange, I haven't run into such an issue, have u edited anything in your version of [0.20]?

sounds about right.

when you're coding a system for something you want it to be reusable and flexible enough to accomodate future needs, so the badge ids would have been set with implementing the kanto league in mind. they are, after all, just numbers. the game takes them and makes the right badge appear. he just needed a unique one for each badge and johto league did sort of come second

Yes, I have edited the files but I did not edit any files that would have effected the game play. All I have done is edited my save file somewhat so that I have Pokemon that are not currently available in current game play such as Snorlax which should have no effect on my gym badge(s).

sounds about right.

Could the badge possibly have been listed as 1 in the previous version then and this version, [.20], was updated to accommodate for the badges in other regions such as Kanto and my badge number was simply not changed during the [.20] game update?

good possibility

I beat the first gym in version [.19_1] with the save file that I was unable to pass the NPC on Route 32 on. I beat the gym again in [.20] with a different save file and I was able to pass the point with no problem. This is not a bug and the only people that could have this issue are those who defeated the first gym in [.19_1] or possibly [.19].

Ok, so, it's not a bug now
