Tip: Remember, if you place a moon, midpoint, or Dragon Coin using direct Map16, it will always respawn when you re-enter that sublevel. Use the extended object instead.

How would you go about doing a modulus in asm anyway? XD I am makeing a sprite that I think will use the X coord as a peramiter like some of the normal ones do.

The SNES has hardware multiply / divide (with remainders).

Code

4204 wl++++ WRDIVL - Dividend C low byte 4205 wh++++ WRDIVH - Dividend C high byte dddddddd dddddddd 4206 wb++++ WRDIVB - Divisor B bbbbbbbb Write $4204/5, then $4206. 16 "machine cycles" (probably 96 master cycles) after $4206 is set, the quotient may be read from $4214/5, and the remainder from $4216/7. Presumably, $4204/5 are not altered by this process, much like $4202. The division is unsigned. Division by 0 gives a quotient of $FFFF and a remainder of C.

I guess you'll be making use of the remainder there.

You have to delay with instructions. 8 NOPS for divide and 4 for multiply is in order unless you have something to do within the wait period.

Bah It's not working as I expected and it takes a bunch of code to do what I want, so I will just make multible custom sprites I guess.

Bah! dosn't sprite tool have a way of makeing sprites which use the las sprites code pointer without reassmembleing the code? =_=
