Statuses that deactivate battle commands
« on: August 19, 2008, 06:42:48 PM »
I found the location today of the table for statuses that deactivate battle commands. It's located from 9FF19 to 9FF4F (FF2us ROM with header), with 2 bytes per command. The first byte deals with status byte 03 (Swoon, Stone, Toad, Mini, Pig, Mute, Blind, Poison) and the second byte deals with status byte 04 (Curse, Float, etc.). For example, Kick's entry is 3840. In binary, 38 is 00111000, which correspond to Toad, Mini, and Pig. The value 40 is why Kick is disabled by Float. The data is for all the commands up until Change (and half of Parry).

Want to list them? Or did one of my long old thread about them covers all of them already...? I'm still digging for it...

Pray and Gird need to be fixed by adding Mute status to that list (they auto fail because they execute magic).

The Poison status affecting Power/Deadly actually shocks me.. I should've noticed this vs Dr. Lugae. This property surprisingly is still applied to FF4A (unlike Float affecting Kick).

Yeah, I was pretty surprised by that, too. Doesn't quite make sense to me, but I'm sure it was intended. I guess poison weakens him so much he can't store the necessary power...?

The list here only reflects commands that are grayed out because of status inflictions. I'll update the list to reflect commands that fail with certain statuses.

Well, considering how the Monk has progressed in the SNES versions of the game, I'd say it makes sense (FF6's Mantra, FF5's Monk has a self-healing command that removes Poison IIRC). It just bothers me that Poison is exposed once during the whole time Yang is in the party.. you would never know this. Then again, Kick being disabled by float makes sense, but you'd never find this out normally... yet that wouldn't explain Jump at all...

Nice find. I'm not sure if I'll make use of this for my hack or not but it's good to know I can. :happy:

Doesn't FF5 or FF6 follow something like this, or are they coded differently (eg, the stat checks are done with the command itself)?

So...? Pigs and Small creatures can Steal. I'm mean, that's the sheer definition of a ninja pickpocket!

I did. Toads can jump too, you've just got to get the command input before Kain gets transformed, probably goes for other commands too but I know that one works for certain. Lack of animations is probably the only reason the pig can't use other physical attacks, it's only supposed to be a negative status for your magic-users.

Also, one of my favorite FF3 DS quotes: "Toads!? I hate toads! Don't turn me into one!"

I forget if Toad stops certain commands from working after execution.. Piggy still allows you to execute the last command.. which allows for amusing stuff like Pig Kicks.
