More glitches. This time with bypassing the gate doors by walking over the gate itself. This causes graphics from the new area not to load. Instead you will see the graphics from the area you just left. In the case of the town north of the gate (labeled "Old" on the warp menu) the graphics end up all jumbled. It can occur elsewhere as well. This will persist until you enter a new area or building normally. If you go back to the previous area you will see that is has been fixed.

Bypassing the gate can also have other strange effects. Such as tall grass becoming solid so you can't walk over it and mountains becoming traversable without the need to hold down B in the debug ROM. In the case of the solid tall grass, I was not able to get any battles to trigger when I walked through it. Bypassing the gate at the end of the demo will not make the tall grass solid (although many other gates did). But I was unable to get any battles to trigger on the supposedly "normal" tall grass anywhere until I fixed it.

So bypassing the gate seems to keep more than just the proper graphics from loading. But that makes sense because the gates act as transition zones between different maps. That way the whole overworld isn't on one giant map. That would be hell on RAM. By bypassing the gates you are preventing new things from loading correctly and the game just retains graphics from the previous area along with some weird glitches. Maybe the player sprite is the default since he's no. 1 on the debug sprite list. So anywhere a sprite only seen in a new area should be appearing he loads instead. Although I'm not entirely sure if that's the case.

The player sprite also replaces a bunch of other sprites, sometimes with amusing results like the zoo area I visited in the last segment.

Ahem! This is part 2! I fixed it.
