Now tracing to see what parts of the profile it's looking for each time around. We want it to eventually read $A54F to fight and get it out of the loop:
1E:A729:B1 B7 LDA ($B7),Y @ $A549 = #$03
1E:A729:B1 B7 LDA ($B7),Y @ $A549 = #$03
1E:A729:B1 B7 LDA ($B7),Y @ $A54A = #$03
1E:A729:B1 B7 LDA ($B7),Y @ $A54A = #$03
1E:A729:B1 B7 LDA ($B7),Y @ $A54A = #$03
…
…bunch of times…
…
1E:A729:B1 B7 LDA ($B7),Y @ $A54F = #$FF
But even when it finds FF it's not breaking out of the loop? Looks like the reason is it's still deciding to use "protect" and the A.I. isn't letting it (again). Here's where it decides:
$A91B:BE A0 65 LDX $65A0,Y @ $65DB = #$11 <– Load enemy tactic to X
$A91E:BD A1 B8 LDA $B8A1,X @ $B8B2 = #$03 <– This is slot 03
$A921:C5 F4 CMP $00F4 = #$03 <– Is it slot 03? If yes then use that tactic
$A923:F0 07 BEQ $A92C
$A92C:A6 78 LDX $0078 = #$05
$A92E:B9 A0 65 LDA $65A0,Y @ $65DB = #$11 <– Load tactic to accumulator
$A931:F0 14 BEQ $A947
$A933:C9 FF CMP #$FF
$A935:D0 08 BNE $A93F
$A93F:9D 00 62 STA $6200,X @ $6205 = #$11 <– This is what I'm going to do!
$A942:A9 1E LDA #$1E <– Go to A.I. code
$A944:20 82 C4 JSR $C482 <– Go to A.I. code
$A947:4C 00 80 JMP $8000 <– Go to A.I. code
So somehow when it chooses "FF" I have to tell it NOT to use a tactic no matter what.
Hmm, to add 2 cents to this, this occurred even before the officer personality was set up. I set up the officer personality just so it would use protect every time, but the glitch still occurred even w/ out the custom personality. It occurs even when going 'all-out'
Maybe it is Yuan Shu trying to sabotage the mod before it comes out…
I think I have it. Fix on the way.
Fix is ready, it solves the hang issues in all your save states. There can be a minor pause after you enter in all your turns if it has trouble finding something to do. In Hua Xin's case he only had 1 of his 16 options available since Protect was already active. To avoid this pause try to give officers more than 1 option out of 16 (which was the case for Hua Xin with protect already active).
Since it overlaps a bit, I'll revise my previous fix:

Okay, let me try it out. I'll break it soon!!!! :cactuar:
oh, perhaps put these changes into an updated IPS patch as well?
You were right about the slight hang, but it is working atm. You da man!
Major problem, something mustve written over some town GFX data…
Quote:Major problem, something mustve written over some town GFX data…Really? Where?
ah, scratch that. Upon my last import of GFX I typed in the wrong address :P
Okay, seems to be working now. Thanks for checking into it. Back to work!
Also, any ideas also on increasing the officer and inn price without breaking the game?
I'm really pushing this mod for more balance in the economy and the players is really going to have to forego some weapons in light of saving the $$$$ for both recruiting officers and buying food.
Agg… More assembly work! I actually figured out the recruiting thing already but I put it in a bad spot which broke something. I'd have to find the old post where I did that and start from there.
Work faster, slave!!
Nah its cool, whenever you get around to it :)
IPS patch and Yuan Shao mod have been updated with the fix on box.com.
