Hi there! I've been tooling around with this plugin and I was wondering if you could help with an issue I've run into. when attaching a custom message to the species window, I keep getting the Pokemon's name in addition to my message and they overlap. How can I remedy this?

FL can probably speak to it more, but taking a look it's because the message will always start with the Pokemon's name no matter what. Based on what I see, you would add the following to the plugin make this work the way you want:

1) Find the line attr_accessor :message_complement. After that line, add:

• attr_accessor :message_override

2) Find the linedef text_message. After that line and before the line ret = name, add:

• return @message_override if @message_override

After adding those lines to the plugin, when you are setting up the command in your event, instead of using "message_complement" to add your custom message, use "message_override. For example, for your Snivy, you could use the following:

si = SpeciesIntro.new(:SNIVY)
si.message_override = "Will it be Snivy, the Grass Snake Pokémon?"
si.show

I didn't think that people will use this script this way. I probably gonna change message_complement to a message_override, like wrigty12 said. Meantime, you can use his approach.

Could someone help me? I added this in, but no matter how many times I force the game to recompile it never recognizes it. I tried to add a event with this script in game just in case it just wasn't showing, but it crashed the game and generated an error message. I know it says something about converting it to a plugin in the instructions but I don't see any difference between it and the other plugins I'm using so I don't know what I have to do.

You probably didn't converted it into a plugin correctly. Here, a guide about how to do this. Or you can just paste it into a script section above main.
