FF4 SNES SRM Checksum

glad it's working, and that i could stumble into helping..   but why would they add in Var $41 instead of just a 0000h constant?  all to save 1 byte?  does the variable (along with $42) get zeroed right before the game save/load or checksum functions?  or are you going off of never seeing it receive another value?  in the latter case, it is a lot harder to prove a negative.


FF6, in comparison, has an always-zero value (at least when running in Bank C3, the main menus), presumably to save space on loads, but it's at a more intuitive address $0000.
