Mod:Sandbox Mod

**Pokemon Reborn: Sandbox Mod** is a mod for the RPG Maker fangame, Pokemon Reborn, developed by DerxwnaKapsyla and Waynolt. The mod aims to implement an area full of various Quality of Life features for players to make use of during their runs of the game. This will range from item shops that sell almost every item in the game, to utility NPCs such as the Day Care and Move Relearner, as well as a few utility Trainers like the EV Grinder.

The Mod is fully agnostic from Reborn and other mods, so there should be no conflicts with any existing mods (Unless they use Map-05.rxdata for some bizarre reason), so installing it should be safe. However, always exercise caution when installing mods. Be sure to backup files if things are overwritten, and just keep a general safe copy of the unedited game somewhere.

## Disclaimer

Before using this mod, understand one very important thing. Waynolt and Derxwna are not part of the Reborn Development Team. Conversely, Amethyst, Cass, Ikaru- none of them are part of Sandbox’s development team. Bugs you spot may be a result of Reborn, or they could be a result of Sandbox’s interactions with the base game.

The game is literally over 160 hours, I do not have the time, nor the patience, to try and test every interaction Sandbox has with the game’s progression. If you find any bugs or issues, PLEASE report them to me and/or Waynolt and we'll look into them as soon as we're able. Unless you're *ABSOLUTELY* sure it's not Sandbox-related, **DO NOT REPORT THEM TO AMETHYST, CASS, ANYBODY ON THE REBORN DEVELOPMENT TEAM. THEY WILL LOOK AT YOU FUNNY AND I WILL CRY.**

Also, it should go without saying, but netplay is disabled for Sandbox. It’s pretty obvious as to why, but for those who are unsure as to why- Sandbox is basically cheating but with an “acceptable” coat of paint. Netplay would become a lawless wasteland... Or just completely dead. So, yeah.

## Mod Installation and Uninstallation

First and foremost, make sure you download the mod from the correct location. The official forum link can be found here, and the link to the GitHub repository can be found here. These are the only places where you can be sure that what you download is the correct, up-to-date version of the mod.

        To install the mod after you’ve downloaded it, extract the contents of the “Sandbox\_E19.zip” to the root of your Pokemon Reborn folder. While this document contains much more robust documentation of the Mod than README.md does, you can still read that file for a “tl;dr” of the mod’s content.

To uninstall the mod, you will need to delete the following files from the following folders.

* Data/Map-05.rxdata
* Data/Mods/libCommonModAssets/
* Data/Mods/DerxwnaKapsyla - Sandbox Mode.rb
* Data/Mods/libCommonModAssetsLoader\_Trainers.rb
* Graphics/Battlebacks/BattleBgKal.png

* README.md

## Using the Mod

    To start using the mod, you will need to access the PC. Any PC will work. Even the Remote PC. Different from prior versions, you can now access the Sandbox from anywhere, at (most) any time, allowing you considerable control over your run without needing to return to the Grand Hall or Agate Circus every time you want to go back to the Sandbox Zone. All you have to do is access the PC and select the second to last option.

    There are some places where there will be exceptions, places that risk breaking the game in unsavory ways. In cases such as this, the Sandbox access will be restricted, in order to prevent the player from possibly breaking event flags, or worse, soft-locking themselves
