Room Timer

Room Timer is an enemy 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.

An invisible controller that starts the HUD countdown (low 10 bits = seconds, max 600) the moment it activates — and VOIDS Link out to the room entrance when it hits zero. Clearing the room of enemies stops it and sets the switch flag in the top 6 bits.

Parameters

The parameters hold these fields. The editor shows each as a labelled control.

Low 10 bits all set (0x3FF) disables the timer — it becomes a pure room-clear watcher for its switch flag.

Switch Flag (set on clear) bits 10–15: 0–63all 64 values usedOne of the scene's 64 switch flags. Actors that share a number are linked: when one sets it, every actor reading it reacts. 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.
