Is there any news on an update for this plugin? It causes nothing but errors and crashes for me. It crashes Ludicious89's Pokedex Data Page plugin but when I remove that plugin the Task page won't even show up. Catching Pokemon crashes the game. Adding them through debug crashes the game. Maybe I did something wrong but this is unusable in its current state.
I'm having a similar issue with the above. I added a custom pokemon through a script call.

Code:
Expand Collapse Copy
[Pokémon Essentials version 21.1]
[v21.1 Hotfixes 1.0.9]

Script error in event 6 (coords 16,8), map 32 (Professor's Lab)
Exception: NoMethodError
Message: undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass

***Full script:
pkmn = Pokemon.new(:SABLEYE, 20)
pkmn.shiny = true
pkmn.makeMale
pkmn.item = :SPELLTAG
pkmn.nature = :NAUGHTY
pkmn.name = "Squall"
pkmn.poke_ball = :DUSKBALL
pkmn.learn_move(:LEER)
pkmn.learn_move(:NIGHTSHADE)
pkmn.learn_move(:ZENHEADBUTT)
pkmn.learn_move(:FAKEOUT)
pkmn.calc_stats
pbAddPokemon(pkmn)

Have you each started a new save file after installing this plugin? Or maybe your custom Pokemon isn't defined in the tasks pbs for this plugin? At least Zephyrias's crash looks to occur because
$player.pokedex.tasks[<pokemonID>] isn't defined

I actually started a new save then created an event to place this custom mon. Which is odd because without Tasks, the event ran fine.
Doing further testing with other pokemon added via debug doesn't get this crash.

I'm also using Modular Pokedex UI, I added the tasks. I guess the other expansions to that plugin as well. >_> they all seem to be playing not nicely...

I started a new save file and it solved the crashes related to obtaining Pokemon (the ones I found, anyway) but the Tasks tab still doesn't show in the Pokedex.
edit: Ah. I didn't realize you had to add the Tasks tab manually by editing the plugin scripts... my mistake I think? That should probably be added to the Resource page with Installation Instructions though.

I'd love to see an update that supports the Pokedex Data Page add-on for Modular UI Scenes anyway, so hopefully that's coming soon! Not being able to press the down arrow in the "Data" tab of that plugin kind of sucks.

Also, is there no way to scroll through a Pokemon's task list yet?

edit: One final thing. Is it possible to add support for different tasks for each form of a Pokemon? Like having a separate task list for Rotom-Wash, Rotom-Heat, etc.

Hello teacher, why is it that after adding the full set of plugins such as Deluxe Battle Kit in version 21.1, it is not possible to read bg_tasks?

Commenting to continue following this thread. OP, are you still working on this? Is there anything I can do to help with the UI?

Hi! Is there a way to make updating the PBS tasks.txt reflect the changes without starting a new game?

Seeing as the dev hasn't been on since February, I'll answer. I believe so yes, but you'll need to add custom code. I completely overhauled the plugin to use Settings instead of PBS for my game. So my way to recompile will be different. I can see what I can come up with for you though

That's a good start! Thank you!

No guarantees as I didn't test this due to not having a great setup to do so, but try this out. Add this somewhere in the plugin (maybe at the end of the [003] Pokedex file). Then, when you can to update your existing tasks, just run pbUpdateExistingPokedexTasks

Ruby:
Expand Collapse Copy
def pbUpdateExistingPokedexTasks
    $player.pokedex.tasks.each do |key, value|
        i = 0
        pbLoadTasks[key].each do |task|
            if value[i][:task] != task.keys.first || value[i][:move_item] != task[task.keys.first]
                  hash = {
                    :task      => task.keys.first,
                    :move_item => task[task.keys.first],
                    :progress  => 0
                  }
                  $player.pokedex.tasks[key][i] = hash
            end
            i += 1
        end
    end
end
