<br>
<pre>
0x000D    : toggles between displaying a room contents or outside? (0=outside, 0xD1 is inside)<br />
0x000E/F  : the VRAM address of the door tile (?)
0x0010/1  : something with tiles (0x0011 seems to be E4 when not fighting, B3 when fighting, B5 when switching between worldmap/indoors)
0x0013    : vertical position thing? moves up when you move down, down when you move up, when you turn around, the switch is noticable after moving another tile. will have a different value if you move left or right, depending on where you are.
0x0014/5  : music related ("the Y position of the door within the map (stored at $14)"??)
0x0017    : something with npcs (tileset? freeze this to 0 and they wont appear)
0x0018/9  : music related
0x001B    : unknown, turns to 0x05 for one frame on enemy encounter
0x001C    : makes the "lightning" sound (or colors?) on "random" encounter. freeze this and it the game will wait for it to turn 0x41. Seems to be 0x6D otherwise
0x001E/F  : music related
0x0020    : walk direction (even when not able to move in that direction); 0=none, 1=right, 2=left, 4=down, 8=up. when pressing multiple buttons, it will first set to the first prssed button, then to a logical or of them. bit weird.
0x0021    : ("the current VRAM "scroll" (stored at $2f)." ??)
0x0026    : unsure ((always?) 0 when fighting, 10 when not fighting, but also indoors and in different parts of worldmap...)
0x0027    : horizontal tile position (not sure whether its you or the edge though)
0x0028    : vertical tile position (not sure whether its you or the edge though)
0x002B    : horizontal ahead address of some kind. seems to determine up to what tile should be pre-loaded. changes by 0x10 when you switch heading
0x002C    : vertical ahead address of some kind. seems to determine up to what tile should be pre-loaded. changes by about 0x11 when you switch heading
0x002D    : direction, 0=vertical on overworld, 2=horziontal on overworld, 1=vertical on not-overworld, 3=horizontal on not-overworld (needs further investigation to support this claim?)
0x0030    : vertical tile (but does not change when switching up/down direction for one tile)
0x0034    : 1 when scrolling, 0 otherwise
0x0035    : timer when scrolling, from 0 to 0xF, when moving to a different cell
0x0040    : low byte will count 0-F when moving horizontally (except not for one tile when changing direction), the upper byte will be 1 when scolling vertically, 0 otherwise.
0x0043    : worldmap only: 0x10 when you're not (completely drawn, like in a forest as well), 0x00 otherwise. always sets 0x00 from 0x10 after the colorsflashing of a battle... always seems to be 0x10 while battling (not very strange, i guess)
0x0062    : Position of finger on menu, position of characters when giving names at start
0x0064    : Position x of finger when giving names at start
0x0065    : Position x of finger when giving names at start
0x0068    : x position indoors
0x0069    : y position indoors
0x0080/4  : gets set to a table value (sprite?), at least when fighting (from source)
0x0081    : 0x68 when fighting, 0x63 while on a map after a fight (world, indoors, town), 0 on boot and until first fight...
0x0088/A   : Graphics used when battle? All 0 on powerup up to the first battle. during battle, 8A jumps while menu's are scrolling, 88 jumps between 69 and 6A. when not fighting, 89 is 6A and 8A is C0. while not in a fight (after the first fight after poweron), 8A will be reset to 0, 88 to 4. it seems 88 does never turn to 4 during a battle.
0x0090/F  : Graphics. 0x96 seems to be 6 when not in a fight. 0x94 counts down during a frame, but i'm not sure if that's between frames as well.
0x00B0/BF  : Music Driver, Square 1 
0x00C0/CF  : Music Driver, Square 2 
0x00D0/DF  : Music Driver, Triangle 
0x00FA    : respond rate (set at title screen, 1-8), delay of text stuff.
0x00F5    : encounter counter (decreases by 1 when walking except for a few tile types). when reaching certain periodic value, it fires an encounter
0x00F6    : decreases by 0x60 (wrap around) whenever 0x00F5 reaches a boundry (bottom or top). Every other time 0x00F5 will switch the way it counts, wrapping around the other time. "affects whether $f5 is incremented or decremented, to give something vaguely resembling a longer period."
0x00F7    : indicates which enemy (type?) we'll battle next. "is the index number of the next battle. This is the one that leads to Kyzokus."
(0x688A)  : "is the index of the next random number for the other PRNG. This value is saved in SRAM, oddly enough."
 
0x0200/FF  : Sprite data page (to be DMA'd) 
0x230 + 34 : mapping from tileset number to music: "Also, that data table I moved from 0x3cfd3 to 0x2d4e8 in one of my patches is the mapping from map tileset number to background music. The other music selections seem to be hard-coded into the appropriate setup routines. The possible values are:"
0x41: Prelude (the music at the beginning)
0x42: Prologue (Bridge and Ship Game)
0x43: Ending
0x44: World map
0x45: Ship music (without the wave sounds, though)
0x46: Airship music (without the propeller sounds)
0x47: Towns
0x48: Castles
0x49: Earth Cave, Volcano, Titan's Tunnel
0x4a: Ice Cave, Cardia caves, Waterfall, Dwarf Cave, Matoya's Cave, Sarda's Cave
0x4b: Marsh Cave and Mirage Tower
0x4c: ToF and Sea Shrine
0x4d: Sky Castle
0x4e: ToFR
0x4f: Shops
0x50: Battle
0x51: Menus
0x52: Slain
0x53: Victory
0x54: Win the ship game, get a plot item. This uses command FF to end, and I suppose the game watches for that and restarts the standard background music.
0x55: Prelude, again. It really does just point to the same song data.
0x56: Saving. Another one that ends itself.
0x57: This is the very short piece of music that plays when you use a potion.
0x58: This is the very short piece of music that plays when you open a non-plot-item chest.

0x6830    : 0x55 when its our turn?
0x6848/54  : battle order. determined about 12 frames AFTER selecting the last target. dead/empty enemie slots are included and skipped. 0-8 = enemy slots (see below), 80-83 = player characters. order is left to right
0x6856    : preemtive/ambush, et al. dunno, but when freezing this (to at least 0x1C), the step counter increases but no battles occur..
0x6858/9  : (" it's putting 300 into $6858,9 for the comparison to HP. When the pointers are doubled, it ends up comparing to $685A,B to the HP which in this case is $0000. The HP can't be less than that, so it doesn't work.")
0x685A/B  : (INT of (attacking) enemy?), hi-lo or lo-hi
0x685E    : at start of battle, resets to 0 then counts up to 4 while filling the character status windows. at four, the ambush/preemtive is computed! later it holds the damage dealt by a character (not monster) and counts to four between attacks
0x6860    : something with dmg (freeze to 255 to do 255dmg)
0x686B    : critical hit when 1
0x686A    : number of hits for one attack
0x6870    : (Spell hit rate?)
0x6876    : (Target damage?)
0x687C    : ? something to do with fighitng...
0x687F    : (Target absorb?)
0x6882    : something with dmg
0x6884    : (Target hit %?)
0x6885    : (Target evade ?)
0x6887    : switches who attacks who?
0x688A    : randomizer seed..? (at least) used for battle order (freeze to 0 to have a numeric ordered battle order) and to display the hit-enemy-animation. also influences hit/miss (FF=always miss for everyone). determines amount of dmg.
0x688E    : counter that indicates who's turn it is in the battleorder (so, i think, this serves as the battle-order-index). also: "LDA $688E      ; Load the character's <class> byte and skip the [Magic" // http://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php/topic,6025.0.html
 
 
0x688F/9E  : 4x4 bytes, something with picking targets. clears to 0 before a turn. does not immediately reset when you undo your move, but does change when you change your targets. does not clear after a battle.
+0x00 = action (0x20=run away, 04=attack, 01=dead(/not attacking?))
+0x01 = (?): 0x10 when attacking normally but also when running away
+0x02 = target (enemy index, 0x80+ when targeting your own group) third byte seems to indicate who you attack (0x80 indicates yourself, like when running away)
+0x03 = zero? (perhaps spell/item index)
0x689F/A2  : Cleared during battle. Rearranged battle order after battle (before black screen!). "The background: after a battle, the game re-sorts your warriors based on their status ailments. It does this by "tagging" each warrior with a number made up of the warrior's current slot (0-3) plus a number based on the status (dead=0x40, stone=0x20, poison=0x10, normal=0). Then it performs a simple bubble sort. It's supposed to end up with the afflicted warriors moved to the end, but otherwise maintain the original order. But in 106 of the 256 possible combinations of statuses, it gets the order screwed up."
0x68AF    : (gets the x coord of hand on screen as set in 0x68B0 during start of battle (et.al.?))
0x68B0/1  : coords of hand and characters. note that this register gets set and reset during one frame. freeze it and all players and hte hand will have the same x or y coord!
0x68B3    : toggles between 0 and 1 every other frame, in sync with rng. seems to have something to do with drawing and input. when freezing to one, half of the palette will be drawn and the A button will be pressed (and more?), when freezing to 0 the other half of the palette gets drawn and you cant give any input...
0x68BD/E  : 0x0B 0x0A when picking targets, 0x0A 0x04 when busy fighting, not cleared after battle (?)
0x6920/A5F : fight menu text and layout
0x69C2    : enemy size (0=small, 1= half height, 2=big (kary))
 
 
0x6AA3    : 2 while fighting sequence, one frame 3 after being done... (actually counts the number of windows open..)
0x6AA5    : this value becomes set when the notification windows are closing after an attack (and after selecting targets)
0x6AA7    : ? counts 0-3 really fast, goes to 5 when selecting action or enemy, frozen to last value while attacking
0x6AA8    : when fighting; character moving back/forward, after battle this counts down from 0x40 to zero (1 per 2 frames) (victory animation), after which the "monsters perished" message is displayed
0x6AA9    : character that's supposed to make a move now
0x6AAA    : when fighting; target enemy (numbered up down, left right), or counts as you move up and down in player-menu. note that this does not wrap at 4 for the player (but denotes the proper enemy!)....
0x6AAB    : like 0x6AAA, for player, counts as the player goes left/right in the menu. note that this does not wrap at 2....
0x6A9F    : seems to be 0x0C when displaying attack result...
0x6AD0    : counter, counts down the time an attack result remains on screen (set to 1 if speed is fastest)
0x6AD6    : (at the start of a fight, it seems to get set to 0x18 when you're dead/incapable and 0 otherwise? looking at the source, dunno)
0x6AE3    : screen x coords of hand in menu
0x6AE4    : screen y coords of hand in menu
0x6B2B    : damage dealt (result?) 0x40/0x64=fail?
0x6B2A    : 0x11 when hit, 0x0F on miss
0x6B3B    : 0x2C on critical hit, 0xF3 on killing blow, 0x21 on normal hit/miss
0x6B5E    : runs from 4 to 7 between attacks, remains 7 otherwise? (see bank 18)
0x6BB7    : enemie types? (FF=empty)
0x6BC9    : seems to be equal to (main?) enemy type...
0x6BD3/C86 : Enemy data (0x14 bytes for each, in sync with enemy type), 9x
+0x02 = hp low
+0x03 = hp high
+0x06 = dead (1=yes,0=no)
0x6B7A    : which player is picking action while fighting (uses iterative 0-3, not the internal index order)
0x6B7B    : which enemy is targeted in menu
0x6BCF    : scratch register, often used to temp store the Accumulator when pushing A X Y registers. (damage dealth? 0 when missed, something (random?!) before actual dmg. hm, 90 when shadow.. (but set at the time preemptive/ambush is determined, see also 0x6D90))
 
enemy index (top-down left-right):
1: 1
2: 0
3: 2
4: 4
5: 3
6: 5
7: 7
8: 6
9: 9
 
0x6C87    : target player index (either way): 0=1, 2=2, 4=3, 6=4
0x6C88    : always 0?
0x6C89/A  : attacker/defender. the value > 128 denotes the player (128/129/130/131), the other value is the attacker
0x6C93    : number of enemies (total)
0x6D18    : counts down when enemy gets hit (freeze this for endless animation). damage seems to be determined right after this hits 0
0x6D14    : counts down while screen is shaking (when enemy attacks you)
0x6D50/7F  : menu text
0x6D55    : tile, related to dmg, does not influence it internally. same as 0x6b2b. gets 0x63 when (enemy?) dies (right after it gets set to dmg). this register also gets reset between battles, set to (?) and then set to dmg. 0x61 when fight over?
0x6D90    : surprise value of current enemy. 90 for shadow, 75 for warmech, 4 for most other enemies. used to determine ambush/preemptive strikes.
0x6D9B    : counts back when you / enemy get hit (blocking when frozen for enemies), while flashing (0xD to 0)
0x6DA0    : before hit: counts down while hitting, 303 to 300, jump to 206, down to 200, jump to 101, end. non blocking but does affect tiles
