During the scene where Sabin sneaks into the Imperial Camp at Doma, if you bring Shadow along with you, there may be times when the game mixes up the order of Sabin and Shadow in the party. This generally happens after the scenes featuring Cyan. This patch ensures that the order of the party members is always preserved.

PATCH INFORMATION:
All PS1 patches include undo data.
SNES patches work on ROM v1.0 or v1.1.
URGENCY:
Low.
PURPOSE:
During Sabin's infiltration of the Imperial Camp at Doma Castle, there are four moments when the game switches between Sabin in the camp and Cyan in the castle. The game has an unorthodox way of handling the switch between parties; instead of keeping Cyan and Sabin in separate parties, which is a known feature of the game, the game removes the former character(s) from the current party and adds the new character(s). The side effects of this are most noticeable if Shadow is accompanying Sabin, as their order might switch in the lineup. This patch ensures that all party ordering is consistent throughout the infiltration by keeping Sabin and Cyan in separate parties until he officially joins Sabin.
VERSION HISTORY:
v1.3 (July 13, 2017): Added the PS1 patches.
v1.2 (March 11, 2017): Fixed an issue with the switch events back to party 1 that caused inventory items to be changed for no reason.
v1.1 (September 17, 2016): Added the GBA patches.
v1.0 (September 16, 2016): Initial release.
