FCEUX Lua script for leveling up Riff/Rena in FE1

[potrzebie]

Chooses "End" in the menu 50 times.

Put Riff or Rena on a fort next to a thief (if you don't know what I'm talking about, check a walkthrough), run the script and go make some coffee.

Can easily be modified to do other repetitive tasks. Leveling up Gordon on the first boss comes to mind.

PS: Lua is built into FCEUX 2.1.2 and later. If you have an older version, check FCEUX's help (like here) on how to install it.

PS: Rename it to riff.lua if you like. I'm not allowed to upload files with that extension to the forum.

* Added comments on some places where they were needed.

* Tested all three delay times, found the smallest values that worked and multiplied by 1.5.

This one levels up characters that can attack from a distance, on bosses that can't (attack from a distance).

Clear the level from enemies, equip Gordon with a new iron bow, put him 2 steps below the boss and put Marth 1 step below Gordon. Do an end of turn, put the map cursor (the square) on Gordon and run. He will attack the boss the number of times an iron bow can be used or until the boss dies. Whenever the boss has less HP than max, he's allowed to rest until he's fully healed before attacking continues. If your using anyone else than Gordon, don't have an (unused) iron bow or can't position your two characters like that, just change the 4 variables right below *** MAIN *** in the script.

You need the english (patched) game for the HP check part to work. You can use it with the japanese if you comment out or remove that part.

I don't consider this cheating. Maybe if the script were thinking for you, but it's only doing a boring, repetetive task. Of course, if you think milking a boss on experience is cheating, this is too.
