| - | Each screen can contain up to 4 unique tile warps: A, B, C, and D. This is the main reason we asked you to make sure you were using //Cave (Walk Down) **[A]**// We won't be dealing with multiple tile warps for quite some time, so just editing Tile Warp A (Tab A, obviously) should reduce confusion. | + | Each screen can contain up to 4 unique tile warps: A, B, C, and D.

| Because we are using a quest that has the quest rule under //Quest->Rules->Combos->Use Warp Return Points Only// turned off, this is a necessary additional step. If this quest rule were turned on, everything involving the green square would instead default to **Warp Return Square A** unless otherwise specified. This includes where Link starts when starting the quest, //which is unchangeable in that regard//. | Because we are using a quest that has the quest rule under //Quest->Rules->Combos->Use Warp Return Points Only// turned off, this is a necessary additional step.
