Behavior Commands
The behavior layout commands define how the objects and Mario are initialized and interact. Like the Geometry Layout Commands, the behavior commands start with a type byte and have no length byte.
Behavior Commands
00: Start
Marks start of behavior. If haunted chair (4FD4) or mad piano (5024), it calls BehCommonInit (802A4120). If it is message panel (32E0), it sets 0x194 to 0x43160000 (150.0).
00 [TT] [AA AA]
| T | Type of object. Used to determine which linked list placed in. |
| A | Might be a bit-field, but Behavior00 ignores them |
Length: 4
01: State Loop
Used by some small effects. if A > current 0x1F4, adds 1 to 0x1F4 of object, otherwise sets to 0. It loops obj→0x1F4 from 0 up to A - 1 and then back to 0.
01 00 [AA AA]
| A | obj→0x1F4 = (A >= obj→0x1F4) ? obj→0x1F4 + 1 : 0 |
Length: 4

02 00 00 00 [AA AA AA AA]
| A | Segmented address of behavior to jump to |
Length: 8
03: Return?
Writes something to 0x1D0. jumps into behavior at object→0x1d4.
