This doesn't work. The array is only 15 bytes so this would be out of bounds.
In addition, tri-state options should be in the first 13 bytes of the array.

Ah, I understand; I changed the flags to standard on/off and got it off the "16th" byte and moved it to the "15th". ([14])
If we want to tri-state these ultimately, I think that we'll have to expand the array.

These should have comments with assembly code which denotes the changes for easier maintenance. Examples can be seen elsewhere in the code.

My bad; I added comments to the vpatches.
…speed and medium text for now.

There is still some room in the array, though it is getting pretty full. I'm not really wanting to expand it until necessary since I don't expect there will be many new features soon.

Accepting mcgrew's suggestion Co-authored-by: Thomas McGrew <tjmcgrew@gmail.com>

Hey mcgrew; both suggestions were implemented via two commits. I appreciate the review! |

I finally got around to testing these changes and once I fixed the compile and javascript errors it seems... broken? With fast walking on, trying to walk around the throne room caused me to walk through the wall and shortly thereafter the game crashed. |

Medium text will print 2 characters / frame instead of 1 character or 1 line / frame. A nice in between.
Double walking will double the walking speed of the hero in the overworld only due to NPC glitching. (there are no NPCs in the overworld)
There's still a little graphical glitch when turning left or right, but it doesn't affect gameplay.
