ROOMDEF

Within regions you can also define rooms, which are basically 'sub-regions' that exist inside the area which may represent buildings within a town or a boss room within a dungeon. Rooms are almost identical to region.

Sphere 56b

ROOMDEF  cannot possess triggers, events or tags.

Since Sphere56c (20 July 2013)

ROOMDEF can have triggers and tags.

The syntax for defining a room is as follows:

[ROOMDEF defname]
RECT=left, top, right, bottom, map
RECT=left, top, right, bottom, map
RECT=left, top, right, bottom, map
