Hack description

The SwdTech charging mechanic in FF3us is often criticized for its slow charge time and the inability for other characters to receive commands while charging. This patch modifies the mechanic by allowing the player to switch characters mid-charge.

While the SwdTech gauge is charging for a character, the player may now press the X or Y button to switch between characters. The gauge position is held in the background while other characters receive commands. Once input returns to the charging character, the SwdTech gauge window automatically reopens. The gauge will resume from the next tier number past its previous position.

The feature is disabled if there are no other characters ready for input. A character's SwdTech gauge resets if the player cancels the gauge window or the character becomes incapacitated.

Archive includes an *.ips patch for both headered and non-headered ROMs.
