"data#" argument effects on game Actors not specified #3

Open T-SquaredProductions opened 3 years ago

T-SquaredProductions commented 3 years ago

I'm not sure if they are tied to just one action or effect. I'm guessing at this, but I think data2 is what specifies the "health" of an actor. The other ones I'm not sure of.

I went into more detail on this in #2, but data1 - data5 is a grab bag. There's no unified meaning between different actor types. Someday I plan to go through each actor type and leave a comment explaining what each variable means in its own context.

@T-SquaredProductions You might be interested in my other project, Cosmodoc (source here). This is an ongoing attempt to document every facet of the implementation of this game.

Currently I've finished all the file formats, low-level hardware interface stuff, and a fair number of UI/menu support functions. Haven't really started on anything that's involved in gameplay, however. It's very much a work in progress, but I add to it when I can.
