Vagrant Story/actor data

This is a sub-page of Vagrant Story.

Actor data struct contains information about additional characters that are currently present in the room with the player. Most of the time they are enemies, seldom friendly NPCs (like Sydney during the fight with Grissom). This struct is never used during the cut-scenes.

The pointer to the first actor is always located at the address 0x8011f9f0. If there's another actor in the room, the first 4 bytes of the struct contains its address; 0x0 otherwise. This way all the structs form a classic linked-list. If an actor is killed, the memory, that was allocated for its data, is freed (either right away, or as soon as it's looted), and the list is rearranged accordingly (all the pointers are updated).
