Shoddy Battle, a new D/P simulator

Thank you for pointing this out, but please note that it is much easier to keep track of bugs if you post them on the tracker:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=919095&group_id=186888&func=browse

With regard to invalid teams, every time we've heard it before, it's turned out to be invalid, or an old team. Perhaps you forgot moves on one of the pokemon. If not, you can attach the team to a bug report and I will look at it (you can save invalid teams).

If anybody's curious about progress, the list has been updated. I completed substitute yesterday, which was probably the last move that is both complex and good.
 
I've seen lots of complaints about Substitute not working right. I've also complained a lot myself about Focus Sash not being there. Just thought you ought to know.

*did not read entire topic*
 
So far the bugs I've heard about substitute have ranged from the minor (which are all fixed by now) to the wrong (one person thought pain split should be allowed against a pokemon with substitute). If you have a new bug, post it on the tracker so that we can actually fix it, rather than just saying "it's buggy".

Also, Sucker Punch was there when you posted that, and there when you mentioned it in Shoddy Battle. :p (This was pointed out to you since your post, of course. I'm just clarifying for the record. :p)
 
This program has been freezing up on me lately and I can't end it with Task Manager and I can't right click on it on the taskbar either =/

I think I would've noticed it if it was, unless it's just out of alphabetical order unlike every other attack on Dugtrio's move list.

In fact, looking over the move list, it still isn't there. It isn't between Stone Edge and Sunny Day where it should be and it isn't anywhere else. You must be looking at something I have no access. :[
 
Shoddy Battle has been working good for me lately. The only problem I want to point out is that during one of my battles, an Energy Ball from Gengar froze my Blissey, when realistically it should have had a 10% chance of lowering Special Attack (I think)
 
I have to re-register because it says my old account is still logged in, and I can see it in the server. Is it supposed to be like that? It's getting annoying having to keep making a new name

It's there. The confusion comes from the fact that the other server that is running (and currently has many more people than the official server) is very outdated because I have not updated the server download even though we have made progress on the server. It's a bit confusing, I know, but you're probably best using the official server until we release newer binaries, which I plan to do soon (it's only been a week since the last ones). If anybody knows the operator of that server ("Jackie Moto"), a server binary built from cvs is here (and here and here, depending on the OS).

Colin, is there anyway to enable PPups? My Gyarados really needs all the PP it can get on Stone Edge. :jump:

No, PP Ups cannot be enabled currently. I believe Colin does plan to implement that option later, though. Items, abilities, and moves are his top priority right now I'd think.

It keeps disconnecting me. Not sure why.

Probably because the server crashed or Colin reset it.
 
Aside from the obvious problems (which are... well... obvious :p) and the bugs, this program has one huge advantage over most others. Its available. ^_~

Seriously though, aside from the slightly buggy tendencies of java and some odd bugs (Trace loves them >_> ), I'm enjoying the hell out of Shoddy Battle.
 
Shoddy Battle looks nice, but I can't get the damn thing to work. I downloaded it and registered and all, but nothing shows up on the main screen. I can't connect to anything or battle anyone. Is anyone else having this problem, or am I just doing it wrong? If the latter, then can someone tell me how to fix it?
 
Must've been the fact that the official server was down for a moment when I first tried last night and I ended up on some other server momentarily.

In other, less mistake-prone news of mine, the Natures are currently backwards for some reason.

Ditto. After I hit "Log In," it just freezes up. Apparently, I log on, because my m8 says he sends me Challenges, but I don't see anything at all. The "Log In" button grays out and I can't do anything with it except shrink it... This is highly irritating.

Yeah, I had that same problem. Whatever it was, it seems to be fixed now.
 
Ugh...First it wouldn't show any servers, then it wouldn't let me log on, then it wouldn't let me connect to the server again, and now it's still not letting me log on! It says I'm already logged on or something. No one's been able to help me so far, and most of my help requests have been ignored. I haven't been able to successfully run it at all, but other people don't seem to have a problem. Man, I think I'll just wait for Competitor.
 
You want to use your time to make something better?

I think the program is quite good. The main programming seems to cause occasionally glitches but this is by far the best D/P sim out to date. I think once this is completed to the production team's standards the sim will be really good and instrumental in the building of the D/P metagame.
 
There´s a weird glitch with Trick. Everytime I use it my opponent is forced to use Trick even if the Pokemon doesn´t have the move.

Rotom used Trick.
Rotom obtained Expert Belt!
Electivire obtained Choice Specs!
Electivire used Trick.
But it failed!
