"Update Base Stats" clarification #12

Open Ohshidash opened 7 months ago

Ohshidash commented 7 months ago

Tool tip for the randomizer states that it does not add Special Attack & Defense Split to Gen 1. Does this refer to the physical/special split that occurred in Gen 4? Does this apply the special attack / defense split to Gen 2-5?

Tool tip should be updated to accurately explain what the option does.

This is referring to the fact that gen 1 only has a single Special stat unlike subsequent gens which have separate Special Attack and Special Defense stats. It doesn't have anything to do with physical/special split for move types.

I cannot believe that I misunderstood it so drastically. My apologies!

Ohshidash commented 7 months ago

Reopening to ask another question for my own sanity.

Do any of the settings add the damage split? If no, is there any intent on adding it?

Do any of the settings add the damage split?

There is the "Update Moves" setting, but it doesn't seem to change move categories.

If no, is there any intent on adding it?

I don't think it is possible without a patch. There are hacks that have it, but I wouldn't know how to add it without looking into it more.

Keeping open so I remember to research this.

I appreciate your dedication!

After looking into it I've managed to develop a patch that adds physical/special split while maintaining compatibility with the randomizer. An upcoming version of the app will also support randomizing move categories if the patch is applied.
