shelling out sounds (Patreon)

this is a test of my mental focus because i have single-handedly corrupted this household and it is three in the morning and yet both dan and my mom are sitting in my room having a lively conversation about things in their pasts and trying to talk to me about various things but still i persist

a lesser ame would not remember what she was writing midsentence
but i can persist
i can block them out.
maybe that's why i don't notice anything in my day to day life.

okay, so past couple days have been a couple minor, but much-anticipated updates. 

the first is the EGG PICKER. someone posted a modpack on reborn's forum featuring this eggpicker mod which changes the game so that you no longer have to have an empty slot to pick up eggs from the overworld.

my mom suddenly mentions she's been hit by several busses in her past. i had not heard this story. we have for some reason been surprised she has physical health issues. 

so the whole thing with the eggs has been a sore spot for like ever-- you probably know already. it's currently super annoying to get things like the Rowlet and Lucario eggs because you gotta get allllllll the way up there and fight stuff on the way with your team only to find that LOL u hav a ful party!!1!! cant get this egg and you gotta come back, well fuck that shit

actually i wanted to fuck that shit like a long time ago, like, in the first place but it's originally a limitation of Pokemon Essentials that makes it so you can't pick up eggs with a full party in the first place

cuz basically the way essentials creates eggs to give to the player is the same way it creates any other pokemon but then at the end of creating the other pokemon we're like "oh by the way, that pokemon you just got? poof, it's an egg now." it's shoved into an egg shape container at the end of it. unfortunately the part of the script that does that can only target pokemon in the party, not pokemon in the box. so you know... gg.

BUT. this mod fixed that. i guess. apparently. so we have sought permission and marcello has absorbed it into our ultimate perfection.
god bless.
a lot of people have wanted this for a while because it's suuuuch a feelsbad sore spot, so i'm really glad we got this

the other much-anticipated thing........ is really probably not much anticipated by anyone but me but gosh DARN it has it bothered me LITERALLY since day 1

we have a fleeing sound when you flee battles
the little rustley noise from gen 1, even
#classic #retro #vitalthrowback
listen
i know this is like
nothing
and it took two seconds to add
idk why i didn't add it sooner, probably because it took me this long to remember i hadn't
but the fact that that is not in default essentials has tilted me since the very first day i started using this engine
it just felt empty
hollow
wrong
a mockery of pokemon rather than a copy of it
but no
we have rustley sounds now
we are whole
and that means so much to me i'm crying right now.
at least that's probably why. let's go with that.
