| Description: | This uberASM code is similar to Item Box to Player Position by HammerBrother. When dropping a power-up from the item box, it'll be placed at player's position. Note that unlike the aformentioned patch, this code is exclusively for power-ups. The benefit of this is it allows you to have both vanilla item drop and dropping at player's position on a per-level basis (e.g. levels where an item from the item box would be unreachable otherwise). |

- Custom Powerups v3.4.4 (I modified them a bit to make them insert with UAT 2.0)
NOTE: when using LX5's Custom Powerups the feather will not drop to the player's position by default, because the table value for the feather is set to ignore increasing $1534,x. If you want to fix this, go to powerup_misc_data/item_box_tables.asm and change the only $40 in the file to $60.
All other custom powerups are configured to increase this table, so you don't need to do this for them, but if you add another one not bundled, make sure bit 5 is set.
Anyways, this is pretty cool, altough if sprites are locked the powerup still drops immediately to the player, which can be clunky.
