Some are statically spawned by [[PlacementMgr]], which means that they are listed in [[map unit]]s and visible on the [https://objmap.zeldamods.org object map]. However, after Link completes enough main quests, most Yiga Clan members the player sees are actually dynamically spawned by [[AutoPlacementMgr]].

=== Near the hideout ===
[[Category:Content (BotW)]]
The ''five'' non-disguised static Yiga clan members inside and near the hideout seem to be spawned unconditionally.
 
== Dynamic ==
Other Yiga Clan members are not listed on the map. This is because they are dynamically spawned by a component called the AutoPlacement Manager. Unlike PlacementMgr, AutoPlacementMgr doesn't use map units to determine which actors to spawn. The current [[map area]] the player is in and various configuration files control whether Yiga enemies spawn or not.
 
=== Condition 1: AreaData ===
Just like other auto-generated actors, Enemy_Assassin_Shooter_Junior or Enemy_Assassin_Middle must be listed in an area's auto-generated enemies for Yiga Clan members to be spawned by AutoPlacementMgr.
 
=== Condition 2: Event flow ===
Just like other auto-generated actors, the AutoPlacement event flows for Enemy_Assassin_Shooter_Junior or Enemy_Assassin_Middle must call the CreateData action for them to be spawned.
 
The full set of conditions can be found here:
* Enemy_Assassin_Middle: https://eventviewer.zeldamods.org/?data=/d/AutoPlacementNear_Enemy_Assassin_Middle.json&params=1&entry=EntryPoint0
* Enemy_Assassin_Shooter_Junior: https://eventviewer.zeldamods.org/?data=/d/AutoPlacementNear_Enemy_Assassin_Shooter_Junior.json&params=1&entry=EntryPoint0
 
=== Condition 3: AutoPlacementMgr ===
This series of checks is specific to Yiga enemies and hardcoded in AutoPlacementMgr (in the [[executable]]).
 
'''If the Electric_Relic_GetBack flag is set''', which happens when Link gets back the Thunder Helm from the hideout and the quest log shows this message:
<blockquote><poem>
You retrieved the chief's heirloom from the
thieves' leader!
 
It's time to head back to Gerudo Town
and return the heirloom to Riju!
</poem></blockquote>
 
...then Blademasters are allowed to spawn. In this case, Footsoldiers carry a random weapon:
<source lang="c++">
// probability: roughly 75%
if (sead::Random::getU32() / (U32_MAX+1) < 0.75)
  weapon = "Weapon_Sword_073"; // Demon Carver
else
  weapon = "Weapon_Sword_053"; // Vicious Sickle
</source>
 
'''Otherwise''':
* if Electric_Relic_AssassinFirst ''or'' Npc_Kakariko001_TalkEnd is set; '''and'''
* if the enemy is Enemy_Assassin_Junior, ''or'' a disguised Yiga, and in possibly more conditions{{check}}
 
then only Footsoldiers may be dynamically generated, and they will only wield Vicious Sickles.
 
Note: if Electric_Relic_GetBack is set, [[AIDef:Action/CreateAndReplaceAssassin]] will create Yiga enemy actors with the DropTable parameter set to "HighRank".

Revision as of 13:05, 4 April 2019

The Actor directory contains files defining actors.

Content/Actor

ActorInfo.product.sbyml

This file is not listed in the game's resource size table.

ActorInfo.product.sbyml (found in the Actor directory) is a Yaz0-compressed BYML file which contains general information about all actors in the game. It is used when constructing actors, and also used to access actor data efficiently when loading the full actor pack is unnecessary (e.g. on menu screens). Therefore, in order to add new actors, or to change items' parameters on menu screens, this file must be edited.

ActorInfo is a machine generated file. It is not meant to be edited directly; much of the information it includes are either automatically generated or copied from ActorParam files (which can be found in the game content) and other source-only files.

Pack

Directory containing actor packs. Actor packs are loaded from here by default.

TitleBG.pack/Actor

AS

The Actor/AS directory contains bas animation reference files used by actors. The actual animations are not stored here.

Pack

Directory containing actor packs. Only actor packs that the game always keeps loaded are found here.

Bootup.pack/Actor

ActorParam directories

Directories containing dummy ActorParam configuration files containing default values. They are used as a fallback when loading actors. The "ActorLink" directory is not present here.

AIDef/AIDef_Game.product.sbyml

Effect/EffectInfo.sbyml

Sound/Sound.sbyml

XLink/XLinkInfo.sbyml

Pack

Contains GlobalParameter.sbactorpack and TipsSystemActor.sbactorpack.
