Reset Time from a map and Town Map Item (Crystal)

Kuroko Aizawa · 2017-01-16 18:51:37

I made a special called ClockResetter that calls the RestartClock function out of clockreset.asm, and had an NPC call for it.

It works, but unfortunately I can't get around this eyesore. I've tried a few other calls to work around it like fading the screen, but it doesn't help it at all.

Is there anyway I can clear the screen before it calls for the function, and then either return to the map, or I could make a warp to outside the building if that isn't possible.

I also have replaced Pokegear with a Town Map item, and it works well apart from crashing the ROM upon closing the map itself.

TownMap: ; ee01
    callba Special_TownMap
    ret

I can only assume it crashes due to being called from the bag, but putting the item under SEL and using it out of bag also crashes it.

the special in question:

Special_TownMap: ; c2c0
    call FadeToMenu
    callba _TownMap
    call ExitAllMenus
    ret

Thanks for looking.

Found the command! It was callba BlankScreen.

If anyone else wants to do this here's my code:

RestartClock in clock_reset.asm

RestartClock: ; 20021 (8:4021)
; If we're here, we had an RTC overflow.
    callba BlankScreen
    ld hl, .Text_ClockTimeMayBeWrong
    call PrintText
    ld hl, Options
    ld a, [hl]
    push af
    set NO_TEXT_SCROLL, [hl]
    call LoadStandardMenuDataHeader
    call ClearTileMap
    ld hl, .Text_SetWithControlPad
    call PrintText
    call .SetClock
    call ExitMenu
    pop bc
    ld hl, Options
    ld [hl], b
    ld c, a
    ret

I also made a special to just call this function, but not sure if that's necessary.

Was able to fix the Town Map thanks to help from Luna/Mateo. For now when you close the Town Map it will reload the Pack, so minor hackfix but it works and looks good without palettes getting screwy so I'm happy with it.

Mhh... I have a similar bug in Crystal when I Teleport in another map via script, 'cause the location change and the script follow the rest and continue with a message box, when the message is over Crystal show the location, but the graphic is buggy. Do you know a fix for this? Maybe script instructions to avoid location alert or something to delay the script to show the location before continue?
