pokemon.update() used to be called after pretty much everything, but
now that we've refactored pretty much everything out of it, it's no
longer necessary for most of the situations we call it for.
It currently only updates pokemon.speed, so I've renamed it updateSpeed
for clarity.
We now only update pokemon.speed on switch-in, right before the
residual event, and at the beginning of every turn. This gives
something like a 30% speed-up.
You won't get more UU if you already have handicapMons, however if you get a lot UU first, you could still get handicapMons.
This fix make sure you wont get handicapMons once you have at least 2 NU/worse (which is already bad enough)
- Gen 1 PP overflow makes a Pokemon stale
- Staleness warnings now specify the staleness source
- Half-staleness also warns, if another pokemon is already stale
Warning on half-staleness helps remind people who seem to think
they've beaten Endless Battle Clause after 5-ish turns, when it
takes 10-20 turns for some staleness verdics, especially if
there's a lot of switching going on.
Mainly follow-up for 1deedc595, but also fixes a few bugs.
- BW/GSC/RBY - randomSet: fixed and renamed slot argument.
- BW - randomTeam: crashlogger relative path was set incorrectly.
- BW - randomTeam: PotD Magikarp and Delibird used outdated randomBattleMoves data format.
- RBY - randomTeam: builder was too reject-happy regarding weaknesses (counters prematurely updated).
An improvement of 130% more op/s is observed for RBY randomCCTeam,
with no significative performance regression for randomTeam in any gen.
It currently deducts an extra PP on a switch. According to the comment,
PP is not deducted earlier, which is why it was being deducted here.
But this is incorrect. PP is deducted earlier on a switch.
Where as SmogDex does not list the NU tier, it is been a long-standing existing tier within Smogon and rby2k10 communities.
The NU tiering serves for Random Battle balance purposes mainly, as there is no UU format.
One could use the change to build a Gen 1 NU tier or similar, though.
The routine for burn and para drops is checked after applying boosts to the Pokémon whose turn is not, regardless of the target of the move, when a Pokémon uses a move that results in a stat change.
- The lock starts even if the move is blocked by Protect, misses, or the
target is immune
- The lock ends without causing confusion whenever the move cannot be
executed
- When the lock ends normally, confusion begins even if the user is
already confused, and there is no indication that confusion has started
- In Gen 1 the duration is 3-4 turns
In order to emulate Gen 1 perfectly and to let the metagame adapt to the correct mechanics, stat calculation has been refactored.
Burn and Paralyse drop are applied whenever a Pokémon switches in with the status.
Also whenever a Pokémon gets a stat boost, if the Pokémon whose turn is not has the status.
Stat boosts recalculate that stat, minus burn and para drops (that's why Agility ignores para drop and Rest keeps drops).
Additionally, Reflect and Light Screen are only calculated in damage calculation.
Part of this code has been added to battle-engine.js with a gen === 1 conditional to avoid a ton of code repetition that would have been necessary otherwise.
Keep in mind that .modifiedStats for a BattlePokemon and the modifyStat function must only be available for gen 1 games.
Unlike battle-engine.js, old gens did not check if move.ignoreImmunity was
undefined/false in their getDamage functions, causing crashes when numbers
were passed in to the function.
While move.affectedByImmunities was always a Boolean value to denote if
the move was affected by immunities, move.ignoreImmunity can be a Boolean
value if it ignores or is affected by all type immunities, but also can
act as an object such that !!move.ignoreImmunity[type] means it ignores
immunities of that type.
Put the functions in the order they are found in scripts.js and battle-engine.js.
Use main addQueue and runDecision options, minor past gens change are dealt with in there.
Add comments on what everything does and relevant Gen 1 mechanics for ease of understanding.
