Objects are things on the map which respond to player actions such as talking. Objects in EB0 are organized by the area of the map sector they are in. There are three banks of object data: 20010-2200F for areas 00-19, 22010-2400F for areas 1A-2A, and 24010-25DF5 for areas 2B-3F. Each bank begins with a pointer table for with one pointer for each area; these point to a second level of pointer tables (terminated with $0000) which point to the objects themselves.

Object header

The object header is 4, 6, or 8 bytes long, depending on the object type. The meaning of the first 4 bytes is always the same.

  • Bytes 0-1:
    • Bits 0-5: Type
    • Bits 6-15: X location
  • Bytes 2-3:
    • Bits 0-5: Direction
    • Bits 6-15: Y location
  • Bytes 4-5: Sprite
  • Byte 6: Present item
  • Byte 7: Present ID (00-49)
  • Bytes 4-5:
    • Bits 0-5: Target music
    • Bits 6-15: Target X location
  • Bytes 6-7:
    • Bits 0-5: Target direction
    • Bits 6-15: Target Y location

Scripts

Some types of objects have a script after the object header. This script is executed whenever the object is interacted with. Script codes range from 00 to 6B; a list of the meanings of some script codes follows. Positions in scripts are offsets from the start of the object itself, not the script.
