These are used where the head or the feet of the player/enemy have to be
moved in an animation, and shouldn't overlap. These aren't actual GFX
and should be loaded with the proper commands, and they're always loaded
at the end of the VRAM area.
Furthermore, I've defined BATTLEANIM_BASE_TILE, which is the tile from
which battle animation graphics may start to load. This value was picked
to make sure at least an entire pokemon pic fits in the area before it,
even though it doesn't seem very used...
Using an underscore before macro variables avoids cluttering up the
global namespace. While this isn't much of a problem right now, it's
good practice that'll keep us from problems in the future.
Tried simplifying things a bit, although not nearly as much as I wanted.
Ideally, we'd either have one of two situations:
- A single set of calculations based on values depending on the
direction of the connection
- A bunch of "generic" calculations done before applying simple
modifiers to them in the final `if` block
Right now it's an icky mix of both and I'm not really sure what to make
of it.
It now only takes one numerical parameter, which is the offset of the
target map relative to the source map, much like in AdvancedMap. This
makes it easier to make connections and avoids having to calculate these
values by hand, and/or "mess with the values 'till it works", as many
have been doing thus far. It's just one, easy-to-understand value.
To convert from the old macro to the new macro, just take the fourth and
the fifth parameter, and calculate `<4th_param> - <5th_param>`. The
result is the value required for the new macro.
These are by far not always checked each week, and as such shouldn't be
called that.
Since they're almost always used through the `bit` instruction, it's
very inconvenient to just make wDailyFlags a `dw` instead.
Some character codes were erroneously named after their text command
counterparts. This has caused a lot of confusion with naming their
functions and with other things.
I've also removed the `dict2` macro and expanded the `dict` macro. This
really isn't something we should be doing for macros but I can't deny it
looks a lot neater than repeated code.
