Repeated Field Medicine Use

Keep Party Menu Open During Field Medicine Use

Credit: ghoulslash

If you're using a lot of potions at once, it can be annoying to keep returning to the bag after use. This simple fix keeps the menu open unless you run out of potions. The user will have to select Cancel or press B to exit the party menu. But this is intuitive.

Let's start by opening src/party_menu.c

Handle Medicine

Find the function ItemUseCB_Medicine. Towards the end of the function, replace

    .....
    else
    {
        GetMonNickname(mon, gStringVar1);
        GetMedicineItemEffectMessage(item);
        DisplayPartyMenuMessage(gStringVar4, TRUE);
        ScheduleBgCopyTilemapToVram(2);
        gTasks[taskId].func = task;
    }

with

    .....
    else
    {
        GetMonNickname(mon, gStringVar1);
        GetMedicineItemEffectMessage(item);
        DisplayPartyMenuMessage(gStringVar4, TRUE);
        ScheduleBgCopyTilemapToVram(2);
        if (gPartyMenu.menuType == PARTY_MENU_TYPE_FIELD && CheckBagHasItem(item, 1))
            gTasks[taskId].func = Task_ReturnToChooseMonAfterText;
        else
            gTasks[taskId].func = task;
    }

Next, find Task_DisplayHPRestoredMessage. Replace gTasks[taskId].func = Task_ClosePartyMenuAfterText; with:

    if (gPartyMenu.menuType == PARTY_MENU_TYPE_FIELD && CheckBagHasItem(gSpecialVar_ItemId, 1))
        gTasks[taskId].func = Task_ReturnToChooseMonAfterText;
    else
        gTasks[taskId].func = Task_ClosePartyMenuAfterText;
