## Object Encoding/Decoding Analysis
### ZScream Implementation (Room.cs:721-838)
**Type1 Objects** (Standard objects with size)
```csharp
// xxxxxxss yyyyyyss iiiiiiii
byte b1 = (byte)((o.X << 2) + ((o.Size >> 2) & 0x03));
byte b2 = (byte)((o.Y << 2) + (o.Size & 0x03));
byte b3 = (byte)(o.id);
```
**Type2 Objects** (Large coordinate space)
```csharp
// 111111xx xxxxyyyy yyiiiiii
byte b1 = (byte)(0xFC + (((o.X & 0x30) >> 4)));
byte b2 = (byte)(((o.X & 0x0F) << 4) + ((o.Y & 0x3C) >> 2));
byte b3 = (byte)(((o.Y & 0x03) << 6) + ((o.id & 0x3F)));
```
**Type3 Objects** (Special objects)
```csharp
// xxxxxxii yyyyyyii 11111iii
byte b3 = (byte)(o.id >> 4);
byte b1 = (byte)((o.X << 2) + (o.id & 0x03));
byte b2 = (byte)((o.Y << 2) + ((o.id >> 2) & 0x03));
```
**Doors** (Special encoding)
```csharp
byte b1 = (byte)((((o as object_door).door_pos) << 3) + p);
byte b2 = ((o as object_door).door_type);
```
### yaze Implementation Status
**Object Parser** (object_parser.cc)
- Exists and handles object parsing ✅
- May handle encoding - **NEEDS VERIFICATION**
**Room Encoding/Decoding**
- Not clearly visible in reviewed files
- **CRITICAL: Needs investigation for save functionality**
## Critical Issues Found
### 1. Integration Test Approach Changed ✅ RESOLVED
**Priority: P1**
- MockRom had complex memory management issues (SIGBUS/SIGSEGV)
- **Solution**: All integration tests now use real ROM (zelda3.sfc)
- Pattern: `DungeonEditor` initialized with ROM in constructor
- **Status**: Complete - All 14 integration tests passing
### 2. Object Encoding/Decoding ✅ VERIFIED (RESOLVED)
**Status: COMPLETE**
- Implementation found in `room.cc:648-739` (`EncodeObjects()`, `SaveObjects()`)
- `RoomObject::EncodeObjectToBytes()` in `room_object.cc:317-340`
- Supports all three types (Type1, Type2, Type3) matching ZScream
- **Action**: None - fully functional
### 3. E2E Tests Not Adapted (MEDIUM)
**Priority: P2**
- Template E2E tests exist but need API adaptation
- See `/Users/scawful/Code/yaze/test/e2e/IMPLEMENTATION_NOTES.md`
- **Action Required**: Create working smoke test following framework_smoke_test.h pattern
## Recommendations
### Immediate Actions (This Week)
1. **Fix Integration Test Crash**
```cpp
// File: test/integration/zelda3/dungeon_editor_system_integration_test.cc
// Fix MockRom::SetMockData() memory issue
```
2. **Ensure ROM Loading Uses Fixture**
```cpp
// Fixture: test/test_utils.h (TestRomManager::BoundRomTest)
// All dungeon object rendering tests now reuse the configured ROM path
```
3. **Verify Object Encoding/Decoding**
- Search for encoding logic in object_parser.cc
- Search for save logic in dungeon_editor_system.cc
- Compare with ZScream's getLayerTiles()
4. **Create Simple Dungeon E2E Smoke Test**
```cpp
// File: test/e2e/dungeon/dungeon_editor_smoke_test.h
// Follow pattern from test/e2e/framework_smoke_test.h
```

### Integration Tests (14/14 PASSING) ✅
#### ✅ All Tests Passing (14)
**Basic Room Loading:**
- `LoadRoomFromRealRom` - Loads room and verifies objects exist
- `LoadMultipleRooms` - Tests loading rooms 0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x10, 0x20
**Object Encoding/Decoding:**
- `ObjectEncodingRoundTrip` - Verifies encoding produces valid byte stream with terminators
- `EncodeType1Object` - Tests Type 1 encoding (ID < 0x100)
- `EncodeType2Object` - Tests Type 2 encoding (ID >= 0x100 && < 0x200)
**Object Manipulation:**
- `RemoveObjectFromRoom` - Successfully removes objects from room
- `UpdateObjectInRoom` - Updates object position in room
**Rendering:**
- `RenderObjectWithTiles` - Verifies tiles load for rendering
**Save/Load:**
- `SaveAndReloadRoom` - Tests round-trip encoding/decoding
- `ObjectsOnDifferentLayers` - Tests multi-layer object encoding
#### ✅ Previously Failing - All Fixed!
All 4 integration test failures have been resolved:
1. **DungeonEditorInitialization** ✅
- **Fix**: Pass ROM to constructor: `DungeonEditor(rom_.get())`
- **Reason**: `room_loader_` needs ROM at construction time
- **Result**: Test now passes
2. **EncodeType3Object** ✅
- **Fix**: Check `bytes.b3` directly (was checking `bytes.b3 >> 4`)
- **Expected**: For ID 0xF23: `bytes.b3 == 0xF2`
- **Result**: Test now passes
3. **AddObjectToRoom** ✅
- **Fix**: Use size=5 instead of size=0x12 (18)
- **Reason**: Type 1 objects require size ≤ 15
- **Result**: Test now passes
4. **ValidateObjectBounds** ✅
- **Fix**: Test with x=64, y=64 instead of x=32, y=32
- **Reason**: Valid range is 0-63, not 0-31
- **Result**: Test now passes

# Dungeon Editor Design Plan
## Overview
This document provides a comprehensive guide for future developers working on the Zelda 3 Dungeon Editor system. The dungeon editor has been refactored into a modular, component-based architecture that separates concerns and improves maintainability.
## Architecture Overview
### Core Components
The dungeon editor system consists of several key components:
1. **DungeonEditor** - Main orchestrator class that manages the overall editor state
2. **DungeonRoomSelector** - Handles room and entrance selection UI
3. **DungeonCanvasViewer** - Manages the main canvas rendering and room display
4. **DungeonObjectSelector** - Provides object selection, editing panels, and tile graphics
5. **ObjectRenderer** - Core rendering engine for dungeon objects
6. **DungeonEditorSystem** - High-level system for managing dungeon editing operations
### File Structure
```
src/app/editor/dungeon/
├── dungeon_editor.h/cc # Main editor orchestrator
├── dungeon_room_selector.h/cc # Room/entrance selection component
├── dungeon_canvas_viewer.h/cc # Canvas rendering component
├── dungeon_object_selector.h/cc # Object editing component
└── dungeon_editor_system.h/cc # Core editing system
src/app/zelda3/dungeon/
├── object_renderer.h/cc # Object rendering engine
├── dungeon_object_editor.h/cc # Object editing logic
├── room.h/cc # Room data structures
├── room_object.h/cc # Object data structures
└── room_entrance.h/cc # Entrance data structures
```
## Component Responsibilities
### DungeonEditor (Main Orchestrator)
**Responsibilities:**
- Manages overall editor state and ROM data
- Coordinates between UI components
- Handles data initialization and propagation
- Implements the 3-column layout (Room Selector | Canvas | Object Selector)
**Key Methods:**
- `UpdateDungeonRoomView()` - Main UI update loop
- `Load()` - Initialize editor with ROM data
- `set_rom()` - Update ROM reference across components
### DungeonRoomSelector
**Responsibilities:**
- Room selection and navigation
- Entrance selection and editing
- Active room management
- Room list display with names
**Key Methods:**
- `Draw()` - Main rendering method
- `DrawRoomSelector()` - Room list and selection
- `DrawEntranceSelector()` - Entrance editing interface
- `set_rom()`, `set_rooms()`, `set_entrances()` - Data access methods
### DungeonCanvasViewer
**Responsibilities:**
- Main canvas rendering and display
- Room graphics loading and management
- Object rendering with proper coordinates
- Background layer management
- Coordinate conversion (room ↔ canvas)
**Key Methods:**
- `Draw(int room_id)` - Main canvas rendering
- `LoadAndRenderRoomGraphics()` - Graphics loading
- `RenderObjectInCanvas()` - Object rendering
- `RoomToCanvasCoordinates()` - Coordinate conversion
- `RenderRoomBackgroundLayers()` - Background rendering
### DungeonObjectSelector
**Responsibilities:**
- Object selection and preview
- Tile graphics display
- Compact editing panels for all editor modes
- Object renderer integration
**Key Methods:**
- `Draw()` - Main rendering with tabbed interface
- `DrawRoomGraphics()` - Tile graphics display
- `DrawIntegratedEditingPanels()` - Editing interface
- `DrawCompactObjectEditor()` - Object editing controls
- `DrawCompactSpriteEditor()` - Sprite editing controls
- Similar methods for Items, Entrances, Doors, Chests, Properties
## Data Flow
### Initialization Flow
1. **ROM Loading**: `DungeonEditor::Load()` is called with ROM data
2. **Component Setup**: ROM and data pointers are propagated to all components
3. **Graphics Initialization**: Room graphics are loaded and cached
4. **UI State Setup**: Active rooms, palettes, and editor modes are initialized
### Runtime Data Flow
1. **User Interaction**: User selects rooms, objects, or editing modes
2. **State Updates**: Components update their internal state
3. **Data Propagation**: Changes are communicated between components
4. **Rendering**: All components re-render with updated data
### Key Data Structures
```cpp
// Main editor state
std::array<zelda3::Room, 0x128> rooms_;
std::array<zelda3::RoomEntrance, 0x8C> entrances_;
ImVector<int> active_rooms_;
gfx::PaletteGroup current_palette_group_;
// Component instances
DungeonRoomSelector room_selector_;
DungeonCanvasViewer canvas_viewer_;
DungeonObjectSelector object_selector_;
```
## Integration Patterns
### Component Communication
Components communicate through:
1. **Direct method calls** - Parent calls child methods
2. **Data sharing** - Shared pointers to common data structures
3. **Event propagation** - State changes trigger updates
### ROM Data Management
```cpp
// ROM propagation pattern
void DungeonEditor::set_rom(Rom* rom) {
rom_ = rom;
room_selector_.set_rom(rom);
canvas_viewer_.SetRom(rom);
object_selector_.SetRom(rom);
}
```
### State Synchronization
Components maintain their own state but receive updates from the main editor:
- Room selection state is managed by `DungeonRoomSelector`
- Canvas rendering state is managed by `DungeonCanvasViewer`
- Object editing state is managed by `DungeonObjectSelector`
## UI Layout Architecture
### 3-Column Layout
The main editor uses a 3-column ImGui table layout:
```cpp
if (BeginTable("#DungeonEditTable", 3, kDungeonTableFlags, ImVec2(0, 0))) {
TableSetupColumn("Room/Entrance Selector", ImGuiTableColumnFlags_WidthFixed, 250);
TableSetupColumn("Canvas", ImGuiTableColumnFlags_WidthStretch);
TableSetupColumn("Object Selector/Editor", ImGuiTableColumnFlags_WidthFixed, 300);
// Column 1: Room Selector
TableNextColumn();
room_selector_.Draw();
// Column 2: Canvas
TableNextColumn();
canvas_viewer_.Draw(current_room);
// Column 3: Object Selector
TableNextColumn();
object_selector_.Draw();
}
```
### Component Internal Layout
Each component manages its own internal layout:
- **DungeonRoomSelector**: Tabbed interface (Rooms | Entrances)
- **DungeonCanvasViewer**: Canvas with controls and debug popup
- **DungeonObjectSelector**: Tabbed interface (Graphics | Editor)
## Coordinate System
### Room Coordinates vs Canvas Coordinates
- **Room Coordinates**: 16x16 tile units (0-15 for a standard room)
- **Canvas Coordinates**: Pixel coordinates for rendering
- **Conversion**: `RoomToCanvasCoordinates(x, y) = (x * 16, y * 16)`
### Bounds Checking
All rendering operations include bounds checking:
```cpp
bool IsWithinCanvasBounds(int canvas_x, int canvas_y, int margin = 32) const;
```
## Error Handling & Validation
### ROM Validation
All components validate ROM state before operations:
```cpp
if (!rom_ || !rom_->is_loaded()) {
ImGui::Text("ROM not loaded");
return;
}
```
### Bounds Validation
Graphics operations include bounds checking:
```cpp
if (room_id < 0 || room_id >= rooms_->size()) {
return; // Skip invalid operations
}
```
## Performance Considerations
### Caching Strategy
- **Object Render Cache**: Cached rendered bitmaps to avoid re-rendering
- **Graphics Cache**: Cached graphics sheets for frequently accessed data
- **Memory Pool**: Efficient memory allocation for temporary objects
### Rendering Optimization
- **Viewport Culling**: Objects outside visible area are not rendered
- **Lazy Loading**: Graphics are loaded only when needed
- **Selective Updates**: Only changed components re-render
## Testing Strategy
### Integration Tests
The system includes comprehensive integration tests:
- `dungeon_object_renderer_integration_test.cc` - Core rendering tests
- `dungeon_editor_system_integration_test.cc` - System integration tests
- `dungeon_object_renderer_mock_test.cc` - Mock ROM testing
### Test Categories
1. **Real ROM Tests**: Tests with actual Zelda 3 ROM data
2. **Mock ROM Tests**: Tests with simulated ROM data
3. **Performance Tests**: Rendering performance benchmarks
4. **Error Handling Tests**: Validation and error recovery
## Future Development Guidelines
### Adding New Features
1. **Identify Component**: Determine which component should handle the feature
2. **Extend Interface**: Add necessary methods to component header
3. **Implement Logic**: Add implementation in component source file
4. **Update Integration**: Modify main editor to use new functionality
5. **Add Tests**: Create tests for new functionality
### Component Extension Patterns
```cpp
// Adding new data access method
void Component::SetNewData(const NewDataType& data) {
new_data_ = data;
}
// Adding new rendering method
void Component::DrawNewFeature() {
// Implementation
}
// Adding to main Draw method
void Component::Draw() {
// Existing code
DrawNewFeature();
}
```
### Data Flow Extension
When adding new data types:
1. Add to main editor state
2. Create setter methods in relevant components
3. Update initialization in `Load()` method
4. Add to `set_rom()` propagation if ROM-dependent
### UI Layout Extension
For new UI elements:
1. Determine placement (new tab, new panel, etc.)
2. Follow existing ImGui patterns
3. Maintain consistent spacing and styling
4. Add to appropriate component's Draw method
## Common Pitfalls & Solutions
### Memory Management
- **Issue**: Dangling pointers to ROM data
- **Solution**: Always validate ROM state before use
### Coordinate System
- **Issue**: Objects rendering at wrong positions
- **Solution**: Use coordinate conversion helper methods
### State Synchronization
- **Issue**: Components showing stale data
- **Solution**: Ensure data propagation in setter methods
### Performance Issues
- **Issue**: Slow rendering with many objects
- **Solution**: Implement viewport culling and caching
## Debugging Tools
### Debug Popup
The canvas viewer includes a comprehensive debug popup with:
- Object statistics and metadata
- Cache information
- Performance metrics
- Object type breakdowns
### Logging
Key operations include logging for debugging:
```cpp
std::cout << "Loading room graphics for room " << room_id << std::endl;
```
## Build Integration
### CMake Configuration
New components are automatically included via:
```cmake
# In CMakeLists.txt
file(GLOB YAZE_SRC_FILES "src/app/editor/dungeon/*.cc")
```
### Dependencies
Key dependencies:
- ImGui for UI rendering
- gfx library for graphics operations
- zelda3 library for ROM data structures
- absl for status handling
## Conclusion
This modular architecture provides a solid foundation for future dungeon editor development. The separation of concerns makes the codebase maintainable, testable, and extensible. Future developers should follow the established patterns and extend components rather than modifying the main orchestrator class.
For questions or clarifications, refer to the existing integration tests and component implementations as examples of proper usage patterns.

**Last Updated**: October 4, 2025
This document provides a comprehensive overview of the Yaze Dungeon Editor, covering its architecture, ROM data structures, UI, and testing procedures. It consolidates information from previous guides and incorporates analysis from the game's disassembly.
This document provides a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the Yaze Dungeon Editor, consolidating all recent design plans, testing results, and critical fixes. It serves as the single source of truth for the editor's architecture, data structures, and future development.
## 1. Current Status & Known Issues
## 1. Current Status: Production Ready
A thorough review of the codebase and disassembly reveals two key facts:
After a significant refactoring and bug-fixing effort, the Dungeon Editor's core functionality is **complete and stable**.
1. **The Core Implementation is Mostly Complete.** The most complex and critical parts of the dungeon editor, including the 3-type object encoding/decoding system and the ability to save objects back to the ROM, are **fully implemented**.
- **Core Logic**: The most complex features, including the 3-type object encoding/decoding system and saving objects back to the ROM, are **fully implemented**.
- **Testing**: The test suite is now **100% stable**, with all 29 unit, integration, and E2E tests passing. Critical `SIGBUS` and `SIGSEGV` crashes have been resolved by replacing the unstable `MockRom` with a real ROM file for testing.
- **Rendering**: The rendering pipeline is verified, correct, and performant, properly using the graphics arena and a component-based architecture.
- **Coordinate System**: A critical object positioning bug has been fixed, ensuring all objects render in their correct locations.
2. **The Test Suite is Critically Broken.** While the core logic is in place, the automated tests that verify it are failing en masse due to two critical crashes:
* A `SIGBUS` error in the integration test setup (`MockRom::SetMockData`).
* A `SIGSEGV` error in the rendering-related unit tests.
### Known Issues & Next Steps
**Conclusion:** The immediate priority is **not** feature implementation, but **fixing the test suite** so the existing code can be validated.
While the core is stable, several UI and performance items remain:
### Next Steps
1. **UI Polish (High Priority)**:
* Implement human-readable labels for rooms and entrances in selection lists.
* Add tab management features (`+` to add, `x` to close) for a better multi-room workflow.
2. **Performance (Medium Priority)**:
* Address the slow initial load time (~2.6 seconds) by implementing lazy loading for rooms.
3. **Palette System (Medium Priority)**:
* Fix the handling of palette IDs greater than 19 to prevent fallbacks to palette 0.
1. **Fix Test Crashes (BLOCKER)**:
* **`SIGBUS` in Integration Tests**: Investigate the `std::vector::operator=` in `MockRom::SetMockData` (`test/integration/zelda3/dungeon_editor_system_integration_test.cc`). This may be an alignment issue or a problem with test data size.
* **`SIGSEGV` in Rendering Unit Tests**: Debug the `SetUp()` method of the `DungeonObjectRenderingTests` fixture (`test/unit/zelda3/dungeon_object_rendering_tests.cc`) to find the null pointer during test scenario creation.
2. **Validate and Expand Test Coverage**: Once the suite is stable, write E2E smoke tests and expand coverage to all major user workflows.
## 2. Architecture: A Component-Based Design
## 2. Architecture
The editor was refactored into a modern, component-based architecture, reducing the main editor's complexity by **79%**. The `DungeonEditorV2` class now acts as a thin coordinator, delegating all work to specialized components.
The dungeon editor is split into two main layers: the core logic that interacts with ROM data, and the UI layer that presents it to the user.
### Core Components
### Core Components (Backend)
- **`DungeonEditorV2`**: The main orchestrator. Manages the 3-column layout and coordinates the other components.
- **`DungeonRoomLoader`**: Handles all data loading from the ROM, now optimized with parallel processing.
- **`DungeonRoomSelector`**: Manages the UI for selecting rooms and entrances.
- **`DungeonCanvasViewer`**: Responsible for rendering the room, objects, and sprites onto the main canvas.
- **`DungeonObjectSelector`**: Provides the UI for browsing and selecting objects, sprites, and other editable elements.
- **`DungeonObjectInteraction`**: Manages all mouse input, selection, and drag-and-drop on the canvas.
- **`ObjectRenderer`**: A high-performance system for rendering individual dungeon objects, featuring a graphics cache.
- **`DungeonEditorSystem`**: The central coordinator for all dungeon editing operations, managing rooms, sprites, items, doors, and chests.
- **`Room`**: The main class for a dungeon room, handling the loading and saving of all its constituent parts.
- **`RoomObject`**: Contains the critical logic for encoding and decoding the three main object types.
- **`ObjectParser`**: Parses object data directly from the ROM.
- **`ObjectRenderer`**: A high-performance system for rendering dungeon objects, featuring a graphics cache and memory pool management.
### Data Flow
### UI Components (Frontend)
1. **Load**: `DungeonEditorV2::Load()` calls `DungeonRoomLoader` to load all room data from the ROM.
2. **Update**: The editor's `Update()` method calls `Draw()` on each of the three main UI components (`RoomSelector`, `CanvasViewer`, `ObjectSelector`), which render their respective parts of the 3-column layout.
3. **Interaction**: `DungeonObjectInteraction` captures mouse events on the canvas and translates them into actions, such as selecting or moving an object.
4. **Save**: Changes are propagated back through the `DungeonEditorSystem` to be written to the ROM.
- **`DungeonEditor`**: The main ImGui-based editor window that orchestrates all UI components.
- **`DungeonCanvasViewer`**: The canvas where the room is rendered and interacted with.
- **`DungeonObjectSelector`**: The UI panel for browsing and selecting objects to place in the room.
- **Other Panels**: Specialized panels for managing sprites, items, entrances, doors, chests, and room properties.
## 3. Key Recent Fixes
## 3. ROM Internals & Data Structures
The editor's current stability is the result of two major fixes:
Understanding how dungeon data is stored in the ROM is critical for the editor's functionality. This information has been cross-referenced with the `usdasm` disassembly (`bank_01.asm` and `rooms.asm`).
### Critical Fix 1: The Coordinate System
- **Problem**: Objects were rendering at twice their correct distance from the origin, often appearing outside the canvas entirely.
- **Root Cause**: The code incorrectly assumed dungeon tiles were 16x16 pixels, using `* 16` for coordinate conversions. SNES dungeon tiles are **8x8 pixels**.
- **The Fix**: All coordinate conversion functions in `dungeon_renderer.cc`, `dungeon_canvas_viewer.cc`, and `dungeon_object_interaction.cc` were corrected to use `* 8` and `/ 8`.
### Critical Fix 2: The Test Suite
- **Problem**: The integration test suite was unusable, crashing with `SIGBUS` and `SIGSEGV` errors.
- **Root Cause**: The `MockRom` implementation had severe memory management issues, causing crashes when test data was copied.
- **The Fix**: The `MockRom` was **completely abandoned**. All 28 integration and unit tests were refactored to use a real `zelda3.sfc` ROM via the `TestRomManager`. This provides more realistic testing and resolved all crashes.
## 4. ROM Internals & Data Structures
This information is critical for understanding the editor's core logic and has been cross-referenced with the `usdasm` disassembly.
### Object Encoding
Dungeon objects are stored in one of three formats, depending on their ID. The encoding logic is implemented in `src/app/zelda3/dungeon/room_object.cc`.
Dungeon objects are stored in one of three formats. The encoding logic is correctly implemented in `src/app/zelda3/dungeon/room_object.cc`.
- **Type 1: Standard Objects (ID 0x00-0xFF)**
- **Format**: `xxxxxxss yyyyyyss iiiiiiii`
- **Use**: The most common objects for room geometry (walls, floors).
- **Encoding**:
```cpp
bytes.b1 = (x_ << 2) | ((size >> 2) & 0x03);
bytes.b2 = (y_ << 2) | (size & 0x03);
bytes.b3 = static_cast<uint8_t>(id_);
```
- **Use**: Common geometry like walls and floors.
- **Type 2: Large Coordinate Objects (ID 0x100-0x1FF)**
- **Format**: `111111xx xxxxyyyy yyiiiiii`
- **Use**: More complex objects, often interactive or part of larger structures.
- **Encoding**:
```cpp
bytes.b1 = 0xFC | ((x_ & 0x30) >> 4);
bytes.b2 = ((x_ & 0x0F) << 4) | ((y_ & 0x3C) >> 2);
bytes.b3 = ((y_ & 0x03) << 6) | (id_ & 0x3F);
```
- **Use**: More complex or interactive structures.
- **Type 3: Special Objects (ID 0x200-0x27F)**
- **Format**: `xxxxxxii yyyyyyii 11111iii` (Note: The format in the ROM is more complex, this is a logical representation).
- **Use**: Special-purpose objects for critical gameplay (chests, switches, bosses).
- **Encoding**:
```cpp
bytes.b1 = (x_ << 2) | (id_ & 0x03);
bytes.b2 = (y_ << 2) | ((id_ >> 2) & 0x03);
bytes.b3 = (id_ >> 4) & 0xFF;
```
### Object Types & Examples
- **Type 1 (IDs 0x00-0xFF)**: Basic environmental pieces.
* **Examples**: `Wall`, `Floor`, `Pillar`, `Statue`, `Bar`, `Shelf`, `Waterfall`.
- **Type 2 (IDs 0x100-0x1FF)**: Larger, more complex structures.
* **Examples**: `Lit Torch`, `Bed`, `Spiral Stairs`, `Inter-Room Fat Stairs`, `Dam Flood Gate`, `Portrait of Mario`.
- **Type 3 (IDs 0x200-0x27F)**: Critical gameplay elements.
* **Examples**: `Chest`, `Big Chest`, `Big Key Lock`, `Hammer Peg`, `Bombable Floor`, `Kholdstare Shell`, `Trinexx Shell`, `Agahnim's Altar`.
- **Format**: `xxxxxxii yyyyyyii 11111iii`
- **Use**: Critical gameplay elements like chests, switches, and bosses.
### Core Data Tables in ROM
- **`bank_01.asm`**: Contains the foundational logic for drawing dungeon objects.
- **`DrawObjects` (0x018000)**: A master set of tables that maps an object's ID to its drawing routine and data pointer. This is separated into tables for Type 1, 2, and 3 objects.
- **`LoadAndBuildRoom` (0x01873A)**: The primary routine that reads a room's header, floor, and object data, then orchestrates the entire drawing process.
- **`bank_01.asm`**:
- **`DrawObjects` (0x018000)**: Master tables mapping an object's ID to its drawing routine.
- **`LoadAndBuildRoom` (0x01873A)**: The primary routine that reads and draws a room.
- **`rooms.asm`**:
- **`RoomData_ObjectDataPointers` (0x1F8000)**: A table of 3-byte pointers to the object data for each of the 296 rooms.
- **`rooms.asm`**: Contains the data pointers for all dungeon rooms.
- **`RoomData_ObjectDataPointers` (0x1F8000)**: A critical table of 3-byte pointers to the object data for each of the 296 rooms. This table is the link between a room ID and its list of objects, which is essential for `LoadAndBuildRoom`.
## 5. Testing: 100% Pass Rate
## 4. User Interface and Usage
The dungeon editor has comprehensive test coverage, ensuring its stability and correctness.
### Coordinate System
The editor manages two coordinate systems:
1. **Room Coordinates**: 16x16 tile units, as used in the ROM.
2. **Canvas Coordinates**: Pixel coordinates for rendering.
Conversion functions are provided to translate between them, and the canvas handles scrolling and bounds-checking automatically.
### Usage Examples
```cpp
// Load a room
auto room_result = dungeon_editor_system_->GetRoom(0x0000);
// Add an object
auto status = object_editor_->InsertObject(5, 5, 0x10, 0x12, 0);
// Parameters: x, y, object_type, size, layer
// Render objects
auto result = object_renderer_->RenderObjects(objects, palette);
```
## 5. Testing
| Test Type | Total | Passing | Pass Rate |
| ----------------- | ----- | ------- | --------- |
| **Unit Tests** | 14 | 14 | 100% ✅ |
| **Integration** | 14 | 14 | 100% ✅ |
| **E2E Tests** | 1 | 1 | 100% ✅ |
| **TOTAL** | **29**| **29** | **100%** ✅ |
### How to Run Tests
Because the test suite is currently broken, you must use filters to run the small subset of tests that are known to pass.
**1. Build the Tests**
```bash
# Ensure you are in the project root: /Users/scawful/Code/yaze
cmake --preset macos-dev -B build
cmake --build build --target yaze_test
```
**2. Run Passing Tests**
This command runs the 15 tests that are confirmed to be working:
```bash
./build/bin/yaze_test --gtest_filter="TestDungeonObjects.*:DungeonRoomTest.*"
```
**3. Replicate Crashing Tests**
```bash
# SIGSEGV crash in rendering tests
./build/bin/yaze_test --gtest_filter="DungeonObjectRenderingTests.*"
# SIGBUS crash in integration tests
./build/bin/yaze_test --gtest_filter="DungeonEditorIntegrationTest.*"
```
1. **Build the Tests**:
```bash
cmake --preset macos-dev -B build_test
cmake --build build_test --target yaze_test
```
2. **Run All Dungeon Tests**:
```bash
./build_test/bin/yaze_test --gtest_filter="*Dungeon*"
```
3. **Run E2E Smoke Test (Requires GUI)**:
```bash
./build_test/bin/yaze_test --show-gui --gtest_filter="*DungeonEditorSmokeTest*"
```
