Notes

All parameters are unsigned integers, meaning all objects like structures, houses, etc. are referenced by their internal indexes. Those internal indexes are listed here.

¹ ↑ This column specifies the code to be written in the Trigger's A1 or A2 slot.

² ↑ HOUSE in this document refers to the house owning the Trigger, labeled "HOUSE" in the Triggers page.
