Catch all?

Catch all? Don't you mean 'killallenemies'? If you do, that item is usually used to kill Trigger enemies to trigger events happening. All it does is kills all the enemies on the current screen. If not though, I don't know what you're talking about.

I think he's referring to the "Catch All" option under the Data menu... that's merely a place holder for Room Type specific menu options, such as Shop Type and Info Type.

Yeah, that is what i'm referring to. it doesn't make any sense!

Maybe the way the coded the menus, they couldn't just add a menu option on the fly or something. *shrug*

When i "click" on the "help" button I look for catch all and it says something that totally does NOT make sense!😮dd:

Oh. "Catch All" is simply the "Placeholder" for what would have replaced with "Room Type" or "Shop Type" or "Special Item" and such. As a matter of fact, if you input a number into the "catch all" .. and then change the room type to "Special Item," you may already see an item pre-selected. 😉 Pretty cool.

So "Catch All" by itself does nothing. It's just a placeholder for the things with REAL use.
