| Pokemon Purple updates |
Been a while since anything was posted about this on the front page.
A while back I went through the entire game and wrote out the code on paper, and later went through that and corrected visible mistakes and updated the variables in a way that I reuse many of the same ones, freeing up a few. I applied that to the game engine and have thus been testing and bug squashing since.
Currently:
+Intro program works flawlessly.
+Save/Load is confirmed to working.
+Fixed a bug with the dynamicness of the ingame menu, wasnt compensating that you didnt have the pokedex.
+Walking engine seems to still work.
-Cant talk to NPCs at the moment.
-When loading, shows having 25 badges for some reason, something that needs to be looked into eventually.
-Need saving and loading screens. Otherwise just looks like a locked up calculator.
-When exiting the options menu from the ingame menu, borders only need to be cleared and reset.
And as requested by a user on United TI:

The above is actually slower in the emulator than it is on the real hardware. This is what it looks like, at the moment, from program start to walking screen. Please also note that when Oak brings up a pokemon, it will be a different one everytime. Just something fun to add in there.
Find more info on progress in the forums. ^_^
