Nice. I like how there's still simple QoL codes that are still being made/come up with

I have a question
what does stw r0, 0x1c(r3) do?

[Vega]

The address at r3 + 0x1C is where the CPU difficulty byte is stored at. The code overwrites the byte before any relative game functions/operations reference/use the byte
