Development Structures#

At 0x1FFE41 follows the specific game initialization structure common for many of Tarantula's games. The structure contains a list of RAM addresses of internal game variables, each followed by the list of its bit-flags or values along with its internal ASCII names. These names are just for readability purposes of the game sources and just skipped by the game itself while it runs this list and set the according variables at the game's initialization.

For this particular game the list of settings is listed below.

• For RAM address $FFC0 (internal game settings 0)
  • "Language select" (bit.5 set) (works only for the European version, the US version just skips the Language select code).
  • "Show copyright" (bit.0 set)
• For RAM address $FFC1 (internal game settings 1)
  • "Music on" (bit.0 set)
  • "Sound fx on" (bit.1 set)
  • "Solid doors" (bit.3 set)
  • "Decrement lives" (bit.4 set)
  • "Falling death" (bit.5 set)
  • "Fire death" (bit.6 set)
  • "Hostile death" (bit.7 set)
• For RAM address $FFC2
  • "X Char Start" (value $FF, set)
• For RAM address $FFC3
  • "Y Char Start (value $FF, set)
• For RAM address $FFC4
  • "Room Start" (value $FF, set)
