Battle Animation Commands

Defined in macros/scripts/battle_anims.asm and engine/battle_anims/anim_commands.asm:BattleAnimCommands.

$00−$CF: anim_wait length

  • length: duration in frames

$D0: anim_obj object, x, y, param

Alternate: anim_obj object, x_tile, x, y_tile, y, param

Spawns an object at coordinate (x, y).

  • object: ANIM_OBJ constants (see constants/battle_anim_constants.asm)
  • x: the x position in pixels
  • y: the y position in pixels
  • x_tile: an added x position in tiles (8 pixels)
  • y_tile: an added y position in tiles (8 pixels)
  • param: modifies the behavior of object. The meaning differs for each object.

The y position also depends on the y offset defined by the object.

  • TODO: what happens for x/y values greater than 160/144 respectively? Is it 1:1 with screen coordinates?
  • TODO: how are the x/y values mirrored when the opponent is attacking?
  • TODO: useful positions
  • TODO: document each object

$D1: anim_1gfx gfx

$D2: anim_2gfx gfx1, gfx2

$D3: anim_3gfx gfx1, gfx2, gfx3

$D4: anim_4gfx gfx1, gfx2, gfx3, gfx4

$D5: anim_5gfx gfx1, gfx2, gfx3, gfx4, gfx5

Loads 1-5 sets of graphics. Will overwrite any previously loaded sets.

$D6: anim_incobj object_id

Increments an object's state.

  • object_id: the nth object in order of creation

Objects are state machines. anim_incobj progresses the state of an object.

$D7: anim_setobj object_id, state

Sets an object's state to a specific value.

  • object_id: the nth object in order of creation
  • state: the state index

Objects are state machines. anim_setobj changes the state of an object.

$D8: anim_incbgeffect bg_effect

Increments a bg effect's state.

Since there can't be two of the same bg effect, the effect type is used. This is distinct from anim_incobj.

$D9: anim_enemyfeetobj

Temporarily creates sprites from the bottom row of the enemy frontpic, so that the player backpic can be moved around without corrupting the enemy frontpic.

$DA: anim_playerheadobj

Temporarily creates sprites from the top row of the player backpic, so that the enemy frontpic can be moved around without corrupting the player backpic.

$DC: anim_transform

$DD: anim_raisesub
