Sun Emblem Switch (Spirit Temple)
Sun Emblem Switch (Spirit Temple) is a switch actor in Ocarina of Time.
Placement
A sun emblem that only reacts to reflected sunlight (the Mirror Shield beam) — without that mechanic it renders but stays off forever. Bits 8-13 are its switch flag; type bits 4-5 = 3 (burn) makes a pre-set flag despawn it.
Type variants (4)
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. 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 | Type |
|---|---|
0 | Stay On |
1 | Toggle |
2 | On While Lit |
3 | Burn Away |
Parameters
Beyond the type above, the parameters hold these fields. The editor shows each as a labelled control.
Shown: 0x0000, the value a newly placed copy starts with.

Flags 0 to 31 are saved with the game, 32 to 55 reset when you leave the scene, and 56 to 63 reset on every room change. Pick a number nothing else in this scene uses unless you mean to link them. The panel's link list shows who shares it.
