Hint Deku Scrubs (Deku Tree)
Hint Deku Scrubs (Deku Tree) is an enemy actor in Ocarina of Time.
Placement
Low byte 1-3 are the Deku Tree order-puzzle scrubs — they only complete their puzzle when all three are placed and hit in order. Low byte 0 is the standalone hint scrub that turns friendly on its own.
Role variants (4)
This actor is placed in one of these forms. Pick it from the editor's Role dropdown. The value is what the actor's parameters store. The editor draws every one of these identically, so this list has no pictures. They differ in behaviour, or in something the preview doesn't model.
| Value | Role |
|---|---|
0 | Standalone hint scrub |
1 | Puzzle member (1st) |
2 | Puzzle member (2nd) |
3 | Puzzle member (3rd) |
Params exactly 0x000A is the internal decorative flower — no scrub, no collision. (Only the full 16-bit value; a nonzero high byte makes it a scrub again.)
Parameters
Beyond the role above, the parameters hold these fields. The editor shows each as a labelled control.
Shown: 0x0000, the value a newly placed copy starts with.
