Rock Trivia

  • Rocks are in the same coordinates in every state
  • Rocks repeat horizontally every 32 tiles.
  • Rocks repeat vertically every 64 tiles.
  • This means that if you know the coordinates of any rock, you can add or subtract 32 from the X coordinate to find a copy of it.
  • Likewise, you can add or subtract 64 from the Y coordinate to find a copy.
  • Within a 32 x 64 tile area, there are exactly 7 rocks.
  • Therefore, there are only 7 rocks in the entire game.
  • There are three rocks that are split by the mud:
    • (234:530)
    • (254:470)
    • (268:482)
