Main Script

The Battle of Olympus uses a relatively complex format for storing its main script. Pointers into the main script start off by reading a 1-byte index into a function jump table, with each function reading a certain amount of data before executing the next function. In order to successfully work with the complete script, you will need to be able to follow the embedded pointers used in the 01, 02, 03, 07, 0A, 0B, and 0C functions.

Function Table

07=<if the quest status flag specified by the next byte is set, skip the number of bytes specified by the byte after that>
08=<load/receive the item specified by the next byte>
/09=<display the 1-byte Pascal string then exit the script engine>
0A=<display yes/no option; if no selected, skip the number of bytes specified by the next byte>
0B=<if the current number of salamander skins < 20, skip the number of bytes specified by the next byte>
0C=<if the current number of olives < the amount specified by the next byte, skip the number of bytes specified by the byte after that>

When displaying a 1-byte Pascal string, the displayed text is stored as a sequence of 5-bit tokens, so the below tables are in binary rather than hexadecimal; the Pascal length is defined by the number of 5-bit tokens in the string. Pascal strings start off using uppercase text.
