Flags, Vars, and Script Tiles
This subject has received more questions and caused more confusion than just about everything else in hacking combined, and we still don't have a guide for it. So, I'm making one. My goal here is to never have to answer another question about these again. So, here we go:
Flags
So, let's begin with flags. Flags are simple: they can be turned on and turned off and are used for the purpose of showing progression of events. Most are used to tell if an event has taken place or not. Fairly simple. However, many flags have special purposes which is what I am going to show you now.
A man named DavidJCobb did some very nice research for us in going through FireRed's engine and scripts and noting every single flag he saw and what it did. So, here is the flag section from his list:
*Please note that the above list is only for FireRed. There is no list for Ruby or Emerald. Feel free to make one if you wish, however, the flag (and later var) engines are quite similar on all games, so the same general rules that I am about to share do apply to all games.
Now, the above list goes over every single known flag. As you can see, there are quite a few. However, most are temporary or, from what you can see, a lot have descriptions like "Set by GAME START SCRIPT" and "Used for a CUT tree...", which obviously means you can't use these for other purposes. In fact, the only flags you can use are those which are used only by specific events and scripts that you have removed.
For example, flag 250: "Set if the player received the MASTER BALL from the SILPH CO. PRESIDENT". If you removed the script in which the Master Ball is given, then this flag is safe to use.
Another example is flag 03A: "Controls visibility of the POKEDEX OWs in OAK's Lab (PALLET TOWN (4.3)". If you remove the Pokedexes, then this flag is safe to use also.
A very common misconception is that if the flag is not on the list, then it is safe. This is not true. In general, only flags 200-2FF that are not listed are safe. Other than that, if it isn't on the list or you haven't removed the event that uses it; DON'T USE IT.
So, in general, flags that are safe:
The above rules generally work for all games, you just won't have a list to check for RSE.
Unless you have the skill of Knizz, Jambo, or JPAN, then these are all you have to work with. There are ways (with ASM) to repoint flags and make more safe, but that is very advanced and I will not be teaching it. However, Jambo51 may release his code for more flags and vars in the near future, but don't bug him about it.
So, let's explain the reasons why flags outside of those ranges aren't safe:
-Many are temporary. Meaning they get reset every time the map changes.
-500-700 are used for Trainer Flags.
-Flags over 900 take up the same space as variables.
That is pretty much it. Fairly simple, huh?
Vars
Vars are like the X in math. They can be anything up to 0xFFFF which is a little over 65,000. Like flags, they are used to track progression throughout the game, but they are also used to store information.
DavidJCobb also documented all of the variables used by FireRed and identified which ones are safe:
In general, only vars 0x4011-0x40FF are the safe. All others overlap different RAM such as PC Boxes or flags, or they are temporary/disposable. That being said, some of the ones in that range are also temporary or used by the games engine. So, just like with flags, you have to be careful. Check the lists, run some tests, delete old events; these are the only ways to truly know of they are safe. Outside of that range; forget about it, you'll end up ruining other events or causing bad eggs.
(Once again, these general rules apply to RSE too, you just won't have a list.)
Script Tiles
This is probably the most confusing thing for a beginner: how to use those green s-tiles in A-map.
Essentially, these tiles will activate the script, which you put in the Script Offset box in the settings, when stepped on. However, it isn't that simple. Look at the picture below:
You will notice that I circled the boxes for "Var Number" and "Var Value". These are pretty cool. What they allow you to do is prevent a script from running again. As we learned above, vars can be any value up to a little over 65,000. So, what do these have to do with a script running? Well, it is quite simple:
So, let's say you put the var 0x4050 in the space for a var and 0 in the space for the value. Can you guess what happens? If you said that the script will only run if the var 0x4050 is 0, then you are correct.
Even if you want the script to run every time you step on it, you have to provide a valid var. If you leave the var space blank or at 0, then the script won't run. Just make sure that nothing else changes the var and you will be good.
Now, if you only want your script to run the first time you step on it, or to not run again, just add this line to the end of your script:
(Remember, all vars that haven't ever been used will be at 0 to begin with.)
So, if we take the situation above where we had the var as 0x4050 and the value at 0 and we don't want the script to run again, simply add this to the end of your script:
Make sense?
Now, one last thing: the Unknown. As you can see in the image, the Unknown is set to 0003. This is not necessary. I almost never use it, but most people do use it simply for continuity. It is something that Game Freak, or their compiler for that matter, inserted that has no real purpose that has been identified. It is simply a constant whose use is just personal preference.
Edit: Yeah, I'm awesome and identified the purpose:
So, let's recap:
Safe Flags:
->200-2FF
->Flags from events or OWs that have been removed
Safe Vars:
->0x4011-0x40FF
->Make sure you check the list! Some vars have specific functions!
Script Tiles
->Used to make a script run when you step on a specific tile.
->You must provide a var.
->The script will only run if var = value
->To prevent the script from running again, set the var to something else in your script.
If I was unclear about anything or there is something that is still confusing, feel free to leave a message and ask. I will be happy to clear up things and improve this guide!

DavidJCobb- for his massive amount of work dealing with flags and vars and what they control.
Jambo51- for helping me understand what is wrong with flags over 0x900 and exactly what vars are safe.
Until next time!

Flags
So, let's begin with flags. Flags are simple: they can be turned on and turned off and are used for the purpose of showing progression of events. Most are used to tell if an event has taken place or not. Fairly simple. However, many flags have special purposes which is what I am going to show you now.
A man named DavidJCobb did some very nice research for us in going through FireRed's engine and scripts and noting every single flag he saw and what it did. So, here is the flag section from his list:
Out of boredom, I dug through every single script and OW in a clean FireRed BPRE ROM and wrote down every single flag and variable I could find. My findings are below, and include OW-visibility flags, item ownership flags, and more. (Not trainer or world map flags, though.)
Summarized flag findings:
Flags 0x000 - 0x006, at minimum, are temporary flags and are directly manipulated by the game engine.
Flags 0x011 - 0x01F are used to control the visibility of destructible OWs, i.e. Rock Smash boulders. They are probably cleared by the game engine every time a map is loaded, as no level scripts clear them. Do not use them on standard OWs.
Flag 0x266 appears to be directly manipulated by the game engine. If set, there is an EGG waiting for you in the Four Island Daycare Center. It is unset manually by scripts if you choose to discard the egg.
The game does not use checkitem to see if you have an item; instead, Game Freak scripts will always check for flags that were set as part of the event sequence that gave you the item (or it may even check for the OW-visibility flags if it was a pickup). E.x. the game uses "checkflag 0x271" after manually setting it, not "checkitem ITEM_BICYCLE 0x1".
A similar thing is done with badges. The "champ-in-making" guy that always chills next to a Gym statue doesn't check badge flags directly; there are eight flags (4B0-4B7) that are set along with those flags, which he checks. Redundant...
Not all of the listed OW-visibility flags are set/cleared directly. Most of them correspond to Person IDs in AMap, and are indirectly altered when one uses "hidesprite" on the Persons (referring to them by Person event number rather than ID).
Notable flags:
Flags 0x011 - 0x01F are used to control the visibility of destructible OWs.
Flag 0x266 is set by the game engine if an Egg is in the Daycare.
Flags 0x4B0 - 0x4B7 affect the "champ-in-making" guy's dialogue in Gyms.
Flags 0x4B8 - 0x4BC are set if the player has beaten {whoever} in the Elite Four during their current attempt at it. They're cleared upon entering the Hall of Fame registration room.
Flags 0x500 - 0x700 are trainer flags.
Flags 0x820 - 0x827 are read directly by the game engine and determine Badge acquisition. But we already knew this.
Flag 0x82D is set if you customize your profile by talking to some woman in some PokeCenter. Apparently directly set by the game engine.
If Flag 0x834 is set, then the player knows the name of Bill's PC (as opposed to "Someone's" PC). Don't know if this affects the PC menu, but it affects dialogue shown when receiving a Pokemon and having it sent to the PC.
Flag 0x842 may have something to do with wireless functionality or some minigame. It's checked after healing at a PokeCenter.
Flag 0x844 is set when Celio connects to Lanette -- IOW when you can trade with R/S/E. Don't mistake it for the E4 completion flag like I almost did.
Flag 0x849 is set when you solve the Tanoby Key.
If Flags 0x84A and 0x84B are cleared, the Vermilion City dockworker won't even bother checking for the MysticTicket and AuroraTicket, respectively. You won't be able to use them. I don't know what sets or clears these flags.
Flags 0x890 - 0x8FD are world map flags.
Flags 0x900 and up overlap the RAM used for script variables and hence ARE NOT SAFE TO USE.
Full findings:
Spoiler:Some of the flags and variables are set by a script that runs once at the start of the game. This script is called by the game engine itself, and shall be referred to as "game start script" in the notes below.

*Please note that the above list is only for FireRed. There is no list for Ruby or Emerald. Feel free to make one if you wish, however, the flag (and later var) engines are quite similar on all games, so the same general rules that I am about to share do apply to all games.
Now, the above list goes over every single known flag. As you can see, there are quite a few. However, most are temporary or, from what you can see, a lot have descriptions like "Set by GAME START SCRIPT" and "Used for a CUT tree...", which obviously means you can't use these for other purposes. In fact, the only flags you can use are those which are used only by specific events and scripts that you have removed.
For example, flag 250: "Set if the player received the MASTER BALL from the SILPH CO. PRESIDENT". If you removed the script in which the Master Ball is given, then this flag is safe to use.
Another example is flag 03A: "Controls visibility of the POKEDEX OWs in OAK's Lab (PALLET TOWN (4.3)". If you remove the Pokedexes, then this flag is safe to use also.
A very common misconception is that if the flag is not on the list, then it is safe. This is not true. In general, only flags 200-2FF that are not listed are safe. Other than that, if it isn't on the list or you haven't removed the event that uses it; DON'T USE IT.
So, in general, flags that are safe:
Code:
[B]200-2FF
Flags for events that have been removed.[/b]
A lot of flags in the 100's are used to control the visibility of items found on the ground. I personally recommend keeping these for new items you want to leave in the ground however, if you do delete that item location, then there is no reason not to use that flag.
Unless you have the skill of Knizz, Jambo, or JPAN, then these are all you have to work with. There are ways (with ASM) to repoint flags and make more safe, but that is very advanced and I will not be teaching it. However, Jambo51 may release his code for more flags and vars in the near future, but don't bug him about it.
So, let's explain the reasons why flags outside of those ranges aren't safe:
-Many are temporary. Meaning they get reset every time the map changes.
-500-700 are used for Trainer Flags.
-Flags over 900 take up the same space as variables.
That is pretty much it. Fairly simple, huh?
Vars
Vars are like the X in math. They can be anything up to 0xFFFF which is a little over 65,000. Like flags, they are used to track progression throughout the game, but they are also used to store information.
DavidJCobb also documented all of the variables used by FireRed and identified which ones are safe:
Summarized variable findings:
0x4020 - 0x4024 are all pedometers, the first of them controlling REPEL expiration.
0x4036 is used for Selphy's Pokemon-fetching game. (She's the woman at Resort Gorgeous). I don't know what modifies this var -- possibly the game engine itself?
0x403A is used in elevator scripts and is directly modified when special 0xD8 is called. Don't store anything that you want to be permanent in this variable.
Vars 0x4064 through 0x4066 are used as part of the boulder puzzles in Victory Road. They're also cleared upon entering Route 23, along with 0x4067.
0x4069 sets which fossil is being revived in Cinnabar Island, and 0x406A sets the progress (1 = active, 2 = complete).

In PC box space!
Variables under 4000 can't be used because:
Some of them have been confirmed unsafe since I last updated that document. The rest are a mystery and could be safe or unsafe.
- They overlap RAM used for flags
- Most script commands don't recognize them as variables
- Most commands basically do this: "If argument > 0x3FFF, then find the value of variable number argument and use that value. Else, use argument itself as a value."
My suspicion -- an unconfirmed one -- is that the only safe variables are those from 0x4000 to 0x40FF (inclusive), excluding variables in that range that are set or read by the core game engine (as opposed to those used by scripts that can be safely removed).
- Variables 0x4100 to 0x417F (inclusive) overlap the RAM used for a special data type called "hidden variables" -- a set of 64 dwords used by certain script commands whose purpose is unknown.
- Variables 0x5084 to 0x55CC overlap RAM used for seemingly-arbitrary data. I haven't noticed any ill effects from overwriting this data, but it changes frequently, so the variables themselves are unreliable.
- Variables 0x56F4 - 0x5EF3 appear to also overlap RAM used for the PC. This doesn't match with JPAN's findings (the 0x5EF4 figure is from him) so either one of us is wrong, or this variable range overlaps non-essential parts of the PC data.
Basically, you're better off keeping your variables to a minimum. If you find yourself running short on variables, see if flags (or perhaps key items) could be used instead of variables to track the player's progression through different scripts.
In general, only vars 0x4011-0x40FF are the safe. All others overlap different RAM such as PC Boxes or flags, or they are temporary/disposable. That being said, some of the ones in that range are also temporary or used by the games engine. So, just like with flags, you have to be careful. Check the lists, run some tests, delete old events; these are the only ways to truly know of they are safe. Outside of that range; forget about it, you'll end up ruining other events or causing bad eggs.
(Once again, these general rules apply to RSE too, you just won't have a list.)
Script Tiles
This is probably the most confusing thing for a beginner: how to use those green s-tiles in A-map.
Essentially, these tiles will activate the script, which you put in the Script Offset box in the settings, when stepped on. However, it isn't that simple. Look at the picture below:
Spoiler:
You will notice that I circled the boxes for "Var Number" and "Var Value". These are pretty cool. What they allow you to do is prevent a script from running again. As we learned above, vars can be any value up to a little over 65,000. So, what do these have to do with a script running? Well, it is quite simple:
The script will run, if and only if, the var in the box is equal to the value
So, let's say you put the var 0x4050 in the space for a var and 0 in the space for the value. Can you guess what happens? If you said that the script will only run if the var 0x4050 is 0, then you are correct.
Even if you want the script to run every time you step on it, you have to provide a valid var. If you leave the var space blank or at 0, then the script won't run. Just make sure that nothing else changes the var and you will be good.
Now, if you only want your script to run the first time you step on it, or to not run again, just add this line to the end of your script:
Code:
setvar 0x[valid var] 0x[another number other than the one in the value box]
(Remember, all vars that haven't ever been used will be at 0 to begin with.)
So, if we take the situation above where we had the var as 0x4050 and the value at 0 and we don't want the script to run again, simply add this to the end of your script:
Code:
[Center]setvar 0x4050 0x1[/center]
Make sense?
Now, one last thing: the Unknown. As you can see in the image, the Unknown is set to 0003. This is not necessary. I almost never use it, but most people do use it simply for continuity. It is something that Game Freak, or their compiler for that matter, inserted that has no real purpose that has been identified. It is simply a constant whose use is just personal preference.
Edit: Yeah, I'm awesome and identified the purpose:
Spoiler:
Okay, so today, I finally decided to look into the "unknown" in script tile and person event making in A-Map. You know, the one that everyone says should be 3, if nothing but for consistency's sake? Well, here is the routine that deals with it for script tiles:
r0= First thing, it gets the byte in question loaded to it.
r4= Offset of data for script tile. +4 is the byte in question.
r5= Same as r4.
r6= Nothing (00000000).
r7= 00000003 <- Number of script tiles on map, I believe.
r8= 00000003 <- Compared to r0.
ROM:0806DDF8 LDRB R0, <R4,#4>
ROM:0806DDFA CMP R0, R8
ROM:0806DDFC BEQ loc_806DE02
ROM:0806DDFE CMP R0, #0
ROM:0806DE00 BNE loc_806DE0C
ROM:0806DE02
ROM:0806DE02 loc_806DE02 ; CODE XREF: sub_806DDC0+3Cj
ROM:0806DE02 MOVS R0, R5
ROM:0806DE04 BL sub_806DD80
ROM:0806DE08 CMP R0, #0
ROM:0806DE0A BNE loc_806DE18
ROM:0806DE0C
ROM:0806DE0C loc_806DE0C ; CODE XREF: sub_806DDC0+30j
ROM:0806DE0C ; sub_806DDC0+36j ...
ROM:0806DE0C ADDS R4, #0x10
ROM:0806DE0E ADDS R5, #0x10
ROM:0806DE10 ADDS R6, #1
ROM:0806DE12 CMP R6, R7
ROM:0806DE14 BLT loc_806DDEC
If you can read this, you will see that if the byte is set to 0 or 3, it goes to the exact same place. This place is some code at 0806DD80 which reads the rest of the data, like the var value and script offset and runs them accordingly.
If it is anything but 03 or 00, it jumps ahead to 0806DE0C prematurely, adds 10 to r4 and r5, (which had the offset of the event data). Event data is 10 bytes long, so guess what, it just reads the next event in line.Tongue I haven't actually tested that his happens, but it is a possibility. This belief is reinforced by the two lines at 0806DE12, which only allow the loop to run if there are script tiles remaining to be run.
So, in all reality, it makes no difference if you change this byte at all, just as long as you only change it to 03 if you do change it. Hope this clears some things up!

So, let's recap:
Safe Flags:
->200-2FF
->Flags from events or OWs that have been removed
Safe Vars:
->0x4011-0x40FF
->Make sure you check the list! Some vars have specific functions!
Script Tiles
->Used to make a script run when you step on a specific tile.
->You must provide a var.
->The script will only run if var = value
->To prevent the script from running again, set the var to something else in your script.
If I was unclear about anything or there is something that is still confusing, feel free to leave a message and ask. I will be happy to clear up things and improve this guide!
