Also, make sure you take the save file # ($7E010A) into account.  |

Ah yes, that helps very much.
Specifically, I'm planning on adding an ammo object for fireballs and it will be like those blue coins in odyssey and every time you shoot a fireball you lose 1 ammo unit, and you can't use it if you don't have any ammo. I intent for the game to keep track of the ammo because it would be annoying if you lost your ammo every time you reloaded the game.
you dont have to expand sram for that, that ammo-thingie means just one additional variable per saveslot.
a general advice:
keep in mind that lorom sram resides in banks $70-$7d, $8000-$ffff while
hirom sram is located at banks $20-$3F, $6000-$7FFF.
both have mirrors in the bank $f0(lorom) and bank $a0(hirom) ranges, keep that in mind when checking where the game writes.
Thanks for the advice. I was wondering about expanding the sram because I wasn't sure if it was all filled up or not. Thanks guys, this has been really informative. |

Yeah, I want to make the game save some of my own memory adresses to the sram, can anyone give me a breakdown of what to do? Yes, I know all the essential asm stuff that I would need to know. I already know how to do stuff, I just don't know many specifics about smw.
Would I need to expand the sram size to accomodate more stuff or is there already enough room for one or two more variables? |
