The last time I tested my test quest file, I found a problem with the Link Slash tiles. I have the 'If Possible, Use Slash Tiles' flag checked for both candles and the wand. Even if Link does not have the slash ability, I still see the Link Slash tiles when Link stabs with the candle or the wand (it doesn't matter if I start him off without the slashing ability in the initialization data in the ZQuest Editor, or take it away from him via cheats in ZC if he is given that ability in the initialization data in ZQuest).
Here's the test quest:

NOTE: I have added a level 4 cheat code to the test quest file: zelda
