CT Shop Editor
« on: May 31, 2008, 02:17:38 pm »
Does anyone know if the shop editor is safe to use with TF? 

I.E. does it somehow tell TF that the space is nolonger free?

If not I may make my own shop editor that only replaces items and doesn't use any unused space.  Does anyone know how the shops are organized?

If it's the new one by Beneficii, yes, it should be fine, it was designed with TF in mind.  It puts the relocated data near the end of the expanded space, in bank $5F.

So it will be the last thing tf overwrites but it is still invisible to tf?  Or does it somehow truck tf into knowing it us used?

As Flux is currently coded, anything in known freespace that is not something Flux knows how to edit will be overwritten if Flux needs the space for something else.

Ill make a feature suggestion for this later (I'm in a car right now) but it might be nice to have a user made document in the proj folder that lists range of bytes that are used outside of flux
