Good news: This no longer relies on InnoDB's default row order.
Bad news: InnoDB in MySQL 5.0 has a bug where it will sort rows
physically according to a secondary index, if there's a composite
primary key and a single-column index and the phase of the moon is
right. So a couple tables have been, once again, reordered -- but
correctly this time.
Good news: This bug will no longer fuck me up!
Curse's type_id was 0, which is bogus; this has been fixed by creating a
real ????? type.
Fourth-gen moves all had zero as a contest effect id, which was also
bogus.
Pokémon 494 and 495 were junk and have been scrapped entirely.
pokemon_form_groups's description column was too short.
pokedex's connect() now takes kwargs passed to sessionmaker().
A more major change: some tables, like pokemon, are self-referential and
contain rows that refer to rows later in the table (for example, Pikachu
evolves from Pichu, which has a higher id). At the moment such a row is
loaded, the foreign key is thus bogus. I solved this by turning on
autocommit and wrapping add() in a try block, then attempting to readd
every failed row again after the rest of the table is finished. Slows
the import down a bit, but makes it work perfectly with foreign key
checks on.
Types, abilities, egg groups, and stats for Shaymin, Giratina, and Rotom forms.
Updated height and weight for Shaymin and Giratina forms.
Added Giratina's form descriptions and updated Shaymin's to mention link
battles and freezing.
All Solaceon Ruins rooms are identical, so there is no reason to have
them duplicated.
All the Old Chateau rooms are similarly identical, EXCEPT for the lone
room that can spawn Gengar. I also left the Rotom room in, for when I
get around to adding event encounters.
Great Marsh is now Great Marsh instead of Safari Zone.
Ruin Maniac Tunnel has been consolidated into one location, and the
areas are actually named informatively.
Turnback Cave has more appropriate area names.
Routes with two parts now mention the cardinal direction in the area
names. Also, several town names have been fixed.
Lake Verity's area names now mention WHAT they are before/after.
This does NOT actually change the data at all! These tables were
apparently created with no key defined, so the rows were in arbitrary
order -- but when I created and populated the tables in MySQL on
nyarumaa, the keys were defined correctly, and InnoDB ordered them by
key. This is about what should happen anyway and the discrepancy adds
clutter when dumping corrections, so I'm just committing the new order.
Finally! Location order is the same as from the old dex, which was
something like the game but ultimately arbitrary, so it's not any better
now.
This takes a very different approach to storage, rather than copying the
game exactly and trying to fix everything in code. Comments coming
shortly so other people can actually make use of this.
