Yep, there's our culprit, just like I thought. That "func_SearchDialogDefinitionForA" call ends up going off into outer space instead of where it should be looking.
Hopefully copying and modifying this function won't be too hard...?
Except... the continue arrow also references those parameters, but the bank has already been restored when it tries drawing it, so it's using incorrect/invalid data when determining where it should draw that arrow.
I'll probably just have to find the continue arrow code and hook it somehow, just like my custom text code...
When IS2 draws a dialogue box on screen, it uses a particular 3-byte memory address for loading the window parameters from; and since all window parameters are in the same bank, it never updates the bank byte in that address.
I've moved all my custom code out into a new bank, though, including window parameters, so I have a hack in place that saves, replaces, and restores that bank byte when it loads custom text...
Hmmm.... That's better, but... if what's causing this problem is what I think it is, I'll be very, very annoyed...

This music was also used in U.N. Squadron (SNES) for its final stage.

Writing a system for dynamically inserting text and automatically updating text pointers.
Using a disassembly would probably be easier, but... that requires a fully reassemblable disassembly...
I probably won't have much new to show on the IS2 project until this is working though. Sorry...! ^^;;;

I wish I didn't feel like things were only worth doing if they could be done perfectly. https://botsin.space/media/sUJG7lDrPMSoc10XGxg
Oh, I had more control codes implemented in my custom code than I thought... I guess I can actually insert some of this text then ^^
Oh wow, this is neat.
So, when choosing AI characters you can play against, there are actually two different lines that can appear! I didn't notice that there were multiple lines until I was reading through what @WTCGames@twitter.com had translated so far.
If you choose most characters, you get the first line ("Player # will be ____, right?")... but if you choose Konomi, you get the second ("I'll join as player #, alright?")
I guess Konomi really does host the whole game!
