Map unit

Contents

Objs

Array of object structures. Must be sorted by HashId because the placement subsystem performs binary searches on the object array in various cases.

Rails

Array of rail structures. Can only appear in group 0 maps (Static); this section is completely ignored for non-static map units.

Link system

Map objects can be linked to other objects (up to 255 in a single generation group). These links allow implementing custom logic and callbacks (for example, DeadUp signals the destination object when the source object dies).

LinkTags and other tag objects are lightweight actors that are used to link objects together.

Objects that are linked together, either directly or via indirect links, are put into the same generation group and loaded at the same time^[check]. If the placement system fails to load an actor, the entire generation group is discarded.

Link tags

LinkTagAnd, LinkTagOr, LinkTagNAnd, LinkTagNOr, LinkTagXOr, LinkTagCount, LinkTagPulse, LinkTagNone are small objects that are used to implement a basic logic system in map units.

AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR LinkTags are boolean operators. They can be used to conditionally set or clear GameData flags, or conditionally spawn objects, trigger other objects, etc. A basic signal is emitted when the LinkTag has been triggered by all of the source links (for LinkTagAnds) or by one of them (for LinkTagOrs), etc.

Count LinkTags are used to increment a GameData flag every time the link tag itself is signalled.

Pulse LinkTags continuously emit a basic signal with a configurable signal duration (PulseLength).

None LinkTags have no effect. They are only used to put different map unit objects into the same placement generation group.

Internally, they are all implemented by the same actor class (LinkTag) since they share most of their core functionality, with only small differences in effects. A single link tag can only handle 0x60 incoming links. Only incoming links with defType <= 0xe are processed; other links are ignored.

Parameters are documented in AIDef:Action/LinkTagBaseAction.

File formats

Map unit binary

In Breath of the Wild, map units are stored in a binary format and given the mubin (Map Unit Binary) file extension. All map object IDs are replaced with CRC32 hashes as a space optimisation. BYML is used as the serialisation format.

Source map unit

Source map units have muunt as their file extension and use strings for map object IDs such as F-5_challenge.muunt/obj760 instead of CRC32 hashes of the IDs in map unit binaries.
