Description: | This patch replaces the normal Dragon Coin counter with a 3-digit numerical one. The new counter keeps track of the *total* number of coins you have collected rather than the ones within a single level, and each coin also saves to SRAM so that it cannot be collected again. Thanks to Alcaro for finding the (laughably small) thing that caused the bug in the previous version. NEW - Added SA-1 support, converted it to asar and it allows to be used with SRAM/BW-RAM Plus. |

Sorry.
They wanted to use this patch with https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=6226 so that if any dragon coins were collected (they set all their level values in this patch to $00), and that patch reads the value from $1F2F to see if 5 or more yoshi coins were collected in a level. Unfortunately, this function from the base game is completely bypassed and not reimplimented within this patch; and my attempt to add it back in for them did not work. I thought, in theory, https://imgur.com/a/45vs22y would work, but it appears to disable the functions of your patch completely.
Please advise.
Am I doing something wrong?
About the patch itself, I had to modify a few things:
1. I added information on the readme about the default SRAM/BW-RAM plus values.
2. I added more two defines for setting up SA-1 Free BW-RAM addresses or otherwise the patch won't work properly on SA-1 ROM because the SA-1 CPU executes one of the hijacks and thus it ends up illegally accessing WRAM.
Other than that, this is a welcome update for the obsoleted xkas one. Approved.
