Subject: Re: Willy and Toilet in same room?

 

Now, to jump to the toilet-display routine even in "Master Bedroom",
we'd have to replace these two RET instructions with jumps to 38298.
Unfortunately a RET instruction is one byte long, while a JR
instruction is two bytes long (the second byte is the operand that
tells it by how many bytes to jump forwards/backwards, as a signed
value from -128 to +127). So to make this change would entail
shunting and relocating of code.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Damn!

Looks like I'll have to put Willy in the entrance to the Bedroom in
the Upper Landing then, but that doesn't really float my boat because
I wanted the player to be able to see their lovely bedroom before they
complete the game - just not be able to get to it.

Something's calling me. It's thick, and made of wood. It's the
drawing-board! ;(
