New page

3d space in the game is made of '''units'''. If the player were to take a step forward while looking perfectly straight, they would move 512 units in the X-Axis.
 
The geometry of a field, the walls and floors, is split into an invisible grid of '''tiles''', squares of 256 units long.
 
Finally, as far as coordinates are concerned, the tiles are within '''chunks''' of 256 tiles (65536 units) long. Walking into a new chunk from position 65536 will seamlessly keep your movement going through position 0 of the new chunk.
 
The player's internal X, Y, and Z coordinates represent how they are located within their current chunk, not the entire field.

===Prerequisites:===
* [[User:Ga-show/LSD_Info/Bizhawk|Bizhawk]] (for viewing the player's coordinates)
** X-Coordinate is stored at '''091E74''' as a ''4-byte unsigned''' integer
** Y-Coordinate is stored at '''091E78''' as a ''4-byte unsigned''' integer
** Z-Coordinate is stored at '''091E7C''' as a ''4-byte unsigned''' integer

===Experiments===
# What happens when the player is forced to stand at 65,537 units within a chunk?
# On fields with falling enabled such as [[The Natural World]], there is a certain Y-value that once reached or surpassed will cause the falling animation to occur when the player moves. Can you use trial and error to find it?
# Editing the player's position can lead to interesting views and discoveries you wouldn't be able to find otherwise. What happens when editing your position to clip through the "WC" door in [[Bright Moon Apartment]]?
