Is There Another Way To Make Money?

[Maikeu]

I battled both gym leaders and all the trainers, so is there another way to make more money?

 

[DracoHouston]

not right now, no.

in the originals thats pretty much it too, but its more than enough. we don't have nuggets yet but those would help too. i know you get one in route 34, i cant remember if there were any sooner than that

There is also Pay Day, which drops coins if you use it (in the originals).

You can grow, and sell berries. Oran gets you 50 per berry.

Are there any plans for a renewable income source, such as trainer rematches? Because I can already see myself running out of potions and pokeballs before next update. Man I love this game.

I wanted to try and find out how to make the trainers able to battle again every day. That would give purpose to go back through the other areas again, too. Also to maybe have them around the same level as your current team's average.

hard to script up now, but you re-enable a trainer by unregistering its entry in your save. this can be done by script. the difficult part is making it do it once a day. you can tie it to a time of day but that doesnt really make it once a day

I'll have to look up scripting when I get back later on.

If you can get that working that would be amazing. Right now on difficulty 2 Bugsy is about 12 levels higher than the wild pokemon, so I think I'll need all the xp and potions I can get.

On the Player script it has money which you can edit in Notepad to any amount of money you want.

Well.. I created a prototype script. It probably wont run in its current format, I haven't had a chance to test it. But my main hurdle is how to register/tie it into the game.

Initially, I wanted to put Professor Oak in your home next to Mom so that by talking to him, you could reset all trainer battles in one conversation. But I was unable to figure out how to put an NPC somewhere. Then, I thought - whoa, maybe if I could just make each wild Pokemon victory give you <PokeDollar for the level of the Wild Pokemon>. I couldn't figure out if this was even possible to do (probably not).

But then, I decided it would be more player-friendly to put it as an option on the Computer inside the Pokemon Centers. However, from an option in the menu, I can't turn it into an action. Say, to press Reset Trainers on the Computer, I run the action in trainer_reset.dat.

I'll upload the file I made so you can see the principle, and, this is the first time I have used this language, so there may be a bug or glitch in what I've done or how I've done it.

I would still prefer to do it as the wild Pokemon option, if that can be done via scripting?

Having to upload it as a TXT extension, as the forum doesn't allow DAT extension.

That's what I would have realized that I had to do in the end. I just wanted it to be a bit more "controlled" and not as cluttered, but alas, you can't link seperate .dat files via actions. Am I right in thinking (as I say, never used this scripting language before today) that you have to @Unregister on each line?

yes, each line is a command. unregister every trainer flag you know, and that will reset all trainers

So every trainer has to be added to the list individually? Not too big a problem. What about gym leaders though, would replaying those battles the same way mess up anything like story progression?
