Documentation on eventinfo, the jump table that tells the game where and when events should occur.

eventinfo can be edited with Jumpah.

Field	Type	Proper Values	Description
name	String	Any string.	Nintendo put the string event here, but you don't have to do this. Instead, you can use it to organize your events.
CharacterName	String	The name of an actor in characterinfo.	Checks if EventNo in the eventinfo entry matches with event_set_no in a currently living characterinfo entry. If there's a match, the event will be allowed to activate. If the actor is dead, then the event will not activate.
pos_x	Float	Coordinates within the map's boundaries.	These are the exact coordinates of the eventinfo entry.
pos_y	Float
pos_z	Float
dir_x	Float	N/A	Useless.
dir_y	Float
dir_z	Float
scale_x	Float	N/A	Useless.
scale_y	Float
scale_z	Float
EventNo	Integer	0-255.	The event szp number to load from the Event folder.
EventArea	Integer	Any positive integer.	This is the size of the zone that the event will occur in. It will be centered at pos_x, pos_y, and pos_z. The 3D shape of the event zone is a cylinder (with area = EventArea) that extends to the ceiling of any room.
EventFlag	Integer	0-255.	This flag will allow the eventinfo entry to work.
EventTime	Integer	0-99.	This is the lower bound of the hour value.	These fields make an eventinfo entry activate only when the GBH clock is in a certain range.
EventTime2	Integer	0-99.	This is the lower bound of the minute value.
EventTime3	Integer	0-99.	This is the upper bound of the hour value.
EventTime4	Integer	0-99.	This is the upper bound of the minute value.
EventLoad	Integer	Any integer.	The number of times the eventinfo entry should load before being disabled forever. If EventLoad is set to 0, it will never be disabled.
disappear_flag	Integer	0-255.	This flag will prevent the eventinfo entry from working.
event_parameter	Integer	If it's for a painting in the Gallery, then 0-23 and 100.	This number will match the ghost of the portrait to show in the Gallery. event_parameter will only be accessed when the script tag <GALLERY> is used. If the number 100 is given, then the Mansion Rank Painting will be shown instead of a Portrait Ghost.
EventIf	Integer	0-6.	EventIf Types
EventLock	Boolean	0 or 1.	If set to 1, then while the event runs, it won't be interrupted by another event. If set to 0, then the event can be interrupted. Note that the ASM events 5 and 6 can interrupt an event even if it has EventLock set to 1.
PlayerStop	Boolean	0 or 1.	If set to 1, Luigi will be frozen for the brief time before the event script is loaded. If set to 0, then Luigi will be free during this time.
