Quizzes

The quizzes start at offset 0x2D0. To parse each quiz:

• Read the question until you encounter the first ~ character.
• After the ~ the answers follow, each separated by newline(return) characters:
  • The first line is the correct answer
  • The next two lines are incorrect answers

Notes:

• Each quiz begins with 0x2020 and ends with a null terminator (0x00)
• When this character '`' appears in the quiz text, all following text should be displayed as red until the character appears again.
• The start position of each quiz is calculated as:

  QuizStart value + 0x2D0

Special Characters

Quizzes may contain placeholder characters that map to words using the PRG_DICT file. This mapping is sequential: both the code and corresponding word. The first word in the PRG_DICT file corresponds to the starting character code 0x80. Each subsequent word is mapped to the next character code by incrementing by 1. For example:

  Replace '€' (0x80) with "the"
  Replace 'ƒ' (0x83) with "word".
