Ocarina Music Staff Spot is a prop actor in Ocarina of Time.

Placement

Draws nothing static. It renders procedurally or not at all, so it may be invisible in the editor even when placed correctly.

Several types fire scene-specific cutscenes (built for the Graveyard, windmill, Door of Time) and permanently set story flags like 'opened Zora's Domain' — triggered from an arbitrary scene the cutscene data won't match. The low 6 bits are its switch flag (0x3F = none).

Type variants (8)

This actor is placed in one of these forms. Pick it from the editor's Type dropdown. The value is what the actor's parameters store.

Rotation fields

This actor reads these rotation fields as settings, not as a direction. The editor shows each one as a number field.

Field Axis What it does
Song Range Z Link must stand within 90 units plus 40 times this number to play the song. The Sun's Song grave type ignores it.
