Alright, this question isn't about help with editing anything, but about getting the program to run. I looked at the stickies and FAQ, but I didn't find anything regarding my concern. I went to load my game to play it, and everything is SUPER fast. Let me emphasize that... IT'S SUPER FAST! There we go. Yeah, I just press the directional keys and BAM there goes Link! I remember having this problem when I first downloaded ZQuest, but I don't remember what I did to fix it. I went into settings and looked around, but I don't see anything of significance. What's the beef guys?

Just press F1. 😊

Also, if you want to use this newfound speed to your advantage, you can hold "`" (top left on most keyboards), and it will speed the game up only until you let go.

Alright, what's with the heart pieces? I collected 4 heart pieces, but my life didn't increase. I went to init data and set it to collect 4 pieces in order to gain 1 extra heart container, but still nothing happened.

EDIT: Okay, this isn't making any sense. I made a test quest file, and placed 4 heart pieces into 4 rooms. When I collected all 4, then my max heart life increased. But in my actual quest I'm working on, when I collect 4 heart pieces, my max heart life does NOT increase. So this has nothing to do with a bug or error. It has to do with my actual quest. I've checked the rules and init data, but I can't find anything in why this would be happening. I would hate to have to cancel a quest that I've worked on for so many hours, and I'm over 50% complete with it as well.

EDIT 2: Problem resolved. Setting the Heart Container type differently than what it should be, for some reason affects the use of the Heart PIECES. Weird.
