EA9C: Event: Landed?
Event_Landed EA9C LD A,($D24B) Jump to Landed_CheckControls if *Active_MonsterActionCountdown is equal to 19.
EA9F CP $19
EAA1 JR Z,Landed_CheckControls
EAA3 DEC A Decrease *Active_MonsterActionCountdown by one.
EAA4 LD ($D24B),A
EAA7 JR NZ,Landed_OnAss Jump to Landed_OnAss if *Active_MonsterActionCountdown is not yet zero.
Not sure if this is a bug or not but this is why the player monster continually "sits down" after landing if you don't touch the controls. Then again, maybe it's intentional given EA9C checks if this is 19.
EAA9 LD A,$19 Reset *Active_MonsterActionCountdown to 19.
EAAB LD ($D24B),A
EAAE LD A,($D252) Jump to Landed_GetUp if *Active_MonsterControlType is set to "computer controlled".
EAB1 AND A
EAB2 JR Z,Landed_GetUp
This monster isn't computer controlled so check if any controls have been pressed.
Landed_CheckControls EAB4 CALL Controls Call Controls.
EAB7 AND A Jump to Landed_OnAss if no controls are being pressed.
EAB8 JR Z,Landed_OnAss
Either a monster player control has been pressed, or this is a computer controlled monster.
Landed_GetUp EABA LD A,($D247) A=*Flag_Orientation.
Moves the orientation flag into the carry flag.
EABD RRCA Rotate A right one position, setting the carry flag if bit 0 was set.
EABE CALL NC,Handler_DecreaseMonsterXPosition Call Handler_DecreaseMonsterXPosition if the carry flag is not set.
Restart the actions jump table back to the beginning.
EAC1 XOR A A=00.
EAC2 LD ($D244),A Reset *JumpTable_Pointer back to 00.
Set the monster flags back to "normal" states.
EAC5 LD ($D246),A Write "not climbing" (00) to *Flag_MonsterClimbing.
EAC8 LD ($D248),A Write "not jumping" (00) to *Flag_MonsterJumping.
EACB JP Action_JumpTable Jump to Action_JumpTable.
No controls are being pressed and *Active_MonsterActionCountdown is not yet zero, so the monster is still flat on their ass.
The routine at DrawMonsterSprite handles which monster to display.
Landed_OnAss EACE LD A,$07 A=sprite ID 07.
George Lizzy Ralph
ID Sprite ID Sprite ID Sprite
07 sprite-7-left 47 sprite-71-left 87 sprite-135-left
Set the co-ordinates for where to draw.
EAD0 LD BC,($D24D) BC=*Active_MonsterXPosition/Active_MonsterYPosition.
EAD4 CALL DrawMonsterSprite Call DrawMonsterSprite.
Again, set the co-ordinates for where to draw.
EAD7 LD BC,($D24D) BC=*Active_MonsterXPosition/Active_MonsterYPosition.
EADB INC B Increment the Y position by two and the X position by one, to target drawing the mouth/ fist section.
EADC INC B
EADD INC C
Adjust the Y position for which way the monster is facing.
EADE LD A,($D247) A=*Flag_Orientation.
EAE1 XOR %00000001 Flip bit 0.
EAE3 ADD A,C A+=C.
EAE4 LD C,A C=A.
The routine at DrawMonsterSprite handles which monster to display.
EAE5 LD A,$1B A=sprite ID 1B.

ID Sprite ID Sprite ID Sprite
1B sprite-27-left 5B sprite-91-left 9B sprite-155-left
