weird random thought: why is it that, when you start a new game in final fantasy 1 and get dumped into the overworld, you're started facing right?

@Felthry RAM address 0x33 represents direction expressed via bitflags. 0x00000001 is east then 10 is west, 100 is south and 1000 is north. If I force-poke 0x33 to 0, my character turns right.

So I presume you start facing right because that's what "Uninitalized byte" defaults to.

@trysdyn Huh! Normally I'd expect 0 to correspond to facing down
