Using the new enemy tiles, do all the different octoroks use different sets of tiles?...like does a fast, blue octorok use different tiles than a slow, blue octoroks?/do red & blue octoroks use different tiles or just different csets? Likewise, do the different stalfos enemies use different tiles? also, why are there so many identical tiles for certain items, like particularly the aquamentus for example? what are they all for?
questions about enemy tiles
Yes - every single enemy you can place has its own tiles now. Check out the PDF DN made to see what exactly goes where.
This can be useful in some way. For example, the red slow octorok in my game is now this weirded out jelly-like thing, yet the red fast octorok is a peasant-like dude.
