ChangeSceneListInfo + Masked Stars

[mariokirby1703]

Can we please discuss the behavior of Masked Stars combined with the ChangeSceneListInfo?

I feel like, if you mask a Star of a Galaxy to a different Galaxy it should use the ChangeSceneListInfo Entry of the Scenario of the Galaxy you collected the Star in and not the Entry of the Scenario in the Galaxy the Star is masked to.

It would be way easier to understand and incorporate than how it is now.
And the way I described it would allow for additional Challenges inside a Hubworld that happen outside of the Hubworld but are always masked to the same ScenarioNo of each Hubworld to keep every Hubworld equal.

The issue is quite complicated, so I'll try to summarize what he told me.

He wants to put purple coins on the hubworld. Purple coins get saved in the hubworld itself, so he made a new galaxy that has the purple coins for every hubworld.

The purple coin star (Level 2, Star 1) is mapped to the hubworld (Level 1, Star 3). So the mask for Level 2, Star 1 is set to Level 1, Star 3.

When collecting Level 2, Star 1 it uses the StageInfo of Level 2, Star 3 to determine where mario is sent. It would make more sense to use Level 1, Star 3's entry or Level 2, Star 1's entry.

And I know that there are some strings that are completely unused in GLE that could be overwritten.

Could the previous star number not be saved in memory? There's plenty of space and it would not take up much. It would only use 4 bits of space.

I did consider this, yes.

I still believe that using Identity should be what the system is.

Not sure what you're trying to say here.

[SuperHackio]

Doesn't matter anyways.

See issue #53

This has finally been resolved with the closure of #53
