Patch: Restored Ability Names (Update)

Hello Silentenigma, i found a bug in your hack.
The learning rate of spells in the extra item menu is shifted.
Don't know if this was already in Angelo's patch.

That is possible to fix yourself. If you remove the colon and one of the two empty spaces after it, it'll shrink the string enough to fit in the space. Here's how it looks on my game where I did that. 



Here's the code.

Code:

C3/5AF9: A2929E  LDX #$9E92     ; 7E/9E92
C3/5AFC: 8E8121  STX $2181      ; Set WRAM LBs
C3/5AFF: A9C1    LDA #$C1       ; Char: ":"
C3/5B01: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B04: A9FF    LDA #$FF       ; Space char
C3/5B06: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B09: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B0C: A9D7    LDA #$D7       ; Char: "×"
C3/5B0E: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B11: A5E0    LDA $E0        ; Learning rate
C3/5B13: 20E004  JSR $04E0      ; Turn into text
C3/5B16: A5F8    LDA $F8        ; Tens digit
C3/5B18: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B1B: A5F9    LDA $F9        ; Ones digit
C3/5B1D: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B20: 9C8021  STZ $2180      ; End string
C3/5B23: 4CD97F  JMP $7FD9      ; Draw string

The colon add at 5AFF along with the "add to string" command afterward, and one of the two "add to string" commands for the Space immediately after, are what you want to remove. Remove just one of the "add to string" commands for the space to leave one space between the Spell name and the "xLearn Rate" data. You don't want to just NOP out the commands, retype in the Hex and that'll give you room to add two spaces at the end of the string, invisible.

With those lines removed, it should look like this.

Code:

C3/5AF9: A2929E  LDX #$9E92     ; 7E/9E92
C3/5AFC: 8E8121  STX $2181      ; Set WRAM LBs
C3/5AFF: A9FF    LDA #$FF       ; Space char
C3/5B01: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B04: A9D7    LDA #$D7       ; Char: "×"
C3/5B06: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B09: A5E0    LDA $E0        ; Learning rate
C3/5B0B: 20E004  JSR $04E0      ; Turn into text
C3/5B0E: A5F8    LDA $F8        ; Tens digit
C3/5B10: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B13: A5F9    LDA $F9        ; Ones digit
C3/5B15: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B18: A9FF    LDA #$FF       ; Space char
C3/5B1A: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B1D: 8D8021  STA $2180      ; Add to string
C3/5B20: 9C8021  STZ $2180      ; End string
C3/5B23: 4CD97F  JMP $7FD9      ; Draw string

The spaces added at the end, I remember, are because the game covers up some text with the magic text in the Esper menu. I don't recall the details, though. You may or may not need them depending on what you're doing, check your Esper menus and see.
