BiT Info

the trial gate can only be loaded in on states 04 or 05
but since 04 is a daytime state only 05 ever has a chance of working

also, title screen isn't 00, title screen is 1C

ok, so I managed to use hacks to get state 05 to not crash in BiT and the trial gate does successfully load when doing so (after flushing the cutscene queue), and getting a file into the trial is really easy if we can get the gate to appear. More interestingly though, if I start BiT (after the continue + reset) with state 05 (again by hacking) then  BiT successfully starts in the daytime and going in and out of a door will not crash state 05 (at night time). So there's something getting set during the start of BiT when it normally loads state 1C that's probably causing state 05 to crash during night time.

So today, I tried to get the trial gate to load via standard run files with BiTmagic while still hacking in state 05 (as yesterday I had simply used Skyloft saves which had the trial gate already activated since they were easier to setup). Unfortunately I was not able to load the trial gate with anything I tried of the regular run files, even though I'm pretty sure the corresponding memory bit was set for it in each file save location that was attempted.

even when copying the set of flags that spawns the gate while saved on Skyloft to other maps and saving on them doesn't seem to spawn the gate in hacked state 05
