Question about the forthcoming online features

[Valyrym]

I heard that online feature will be implemented eventually, so in the line of thinking I have rare mons with good IVs and natures that I could trade for things I want, thing is I used CE to speed up my game when breeding, will that flag my save file? I'm really banking on trading when it's introduced since I have a crap-ton of shiny breed-jects that people may want.

As it stands right now, save files shouldn't be flagged on old saves, but that might change if you do stuff on Episode 17. We'd actually have to look at E16's coding to see if the system has been placed in but I doubt it. You and like the dozens of other people who keep asking are searching for answers to things we do not know about and likely won't for at least another 6 months. If it becomes a major issue, people will look into it for fixes whether it's modders or the developers, but if you don't understand why this flag system is in place, then you likely are safe.

When this online system comes out, we're all are going to be very, very strict on how things function. Request a mon will flag your save making it unplayable for example (that method I'm almost certain of). Until then, it's best not to worry about.

while we are on the topic, im curious to know if people use cheat engine to play reborn.
I personally do just because reborn movement seems slow.. so it saves a lot of time running back and forth between cities, and breeding.

honestly i use cheat engine to make my game go a bit faster. its a bit too slow for my liking lol.

[Lugruf]

I don't use cheat engine. I use RPGMaker to help people in the forums with requests, trades and bugs but hardly ever for myself. The only exception is the psychologist. Soft reseting in front of the psychologist until you get the nature you want is a pain, so I just change it with RPGMaker and toss a Heart Scale to save time.

Okay so given that this thread seems to be turning into people expressing what they use Cheat Engines for I thought I should drop in. I'd like to remind/ inform everyone that discussion of Cheat Engines is technically against our policy here (for more detail look at this PSA).

The initial question was reasonable enough as it was more about the online features, but what we really don't need is a thread of people talking about how they personally use cheat engines, so if we could avoid going any further into this it would be appreciated.

In terms of the initial question, Marcello is the best person to answer it as he's the one implementing it and no-one else can really be sure. So if he pops by I'm sure he'll give more detail. If not, you'll just have to wait and see when its implemented.

Hello, yes, it is I, Marcello.

If you used CE to speed things up while breeding, there will indeed be no flagging to your save file. Online is planned for E17 so it's a while away, but when it does hit, you should be able to trade & battle to your heart's content!
