	~~Leaving and reentering the first room of~~ a dungeon will ~~actually~~ open ~~a bomb~~ wall OR locked door on the ~~north~~ side. This is ~~especially common on levels 5, 7~~, and ~~9. This works because entering a screen~~ will open the door ~~you entered through, and the game thinks you came in through~~ the top ~~because~~ the ~~last door you left through was the bottom one~~.		Entering a dungeon room will open the bombable wall or locked door that you entered through, even if the other side is still sealed. This is how the level 1 locked door trick works in the vanilla game, where leaving and reentering level 1 will open the locked door at the top of the starting screen, but it's actually more general than this.

	~~This trick is even more general than this. The~~ direction ~~through which~~ you ~~entered~~ the ~~overworld~~ screen ~~that has~~ the dungeon ~~will also be treated as the door~~ you ~~came through~~, ~~so if~~ you ~~entered~~ the overworld screen ~~from the left and go into~~ the dungeon, the ~~left~~ door will be opened ~~if it~~ can be.		When you exit off the edge of a screen, the game figures out the direction you're entering the next screen. However, when using up+A or entering a dungeon, the last entrance direction is preserved into the dungeon's starting screen. Because of this, when you leave a dungeon, the game thinks you're entering the next (overworld) screen by that opposite direction, but it doesn't recalculate this when you reenter the dungeon, so the door opposite the one you used to leave the level will be opened. Scrolling on the overworld also marks the entrance direction as open, so entering a screen containing a dungeon from particular directions can be used to open doors on those corresponding directions in the dungeon. This even works with the recorder (always entering from the left), roocorder (always entering from the bottom), and overworld up+A (preserves the last entrance direction).

	You can also ~~use~~ this trick with up+A, but it's more complicated. When you use up+A in the dungeon, any door on the screen that ~~CAN~~ be closed (~~bomb~~ wall, locked door, shutter door) and is currently open will be able to open a door on the dungeon entrance screen. You can even use this as you enter a room through a shutter door, since it starts out open; it will stay marked as open for several frames after appearing closed, so mashing start while entering should catch it.		You can also do this trick with up+A in dungeons, but it's more complicated. When you use up+A in the dungeon, the opened-door state on the old screen will be applied to the starting screen, so any door on the old screen that ''can'' be closed (bombable wall, locked door, shutter door) and is currently open will be able to open its corresponding door on the dungeon entrance screen. You can even use this as you enter a room through a shutter door, since it starts out open; it will stay marked as open for several frames after appearing closed, so mashing start while entering should catch it. Note that while standard doors and false walls are open, they do not count as having been ''opened'' and can't be used for this trick.

	~~Finally~~, ~~up+A~~ can ~~also~~ be used ~~on the overworld to preserve your entrance direction in case there is a dungeon on the start screen and that screen doesn't allow you to enter it from the side you'd want to~~.

Decoding Warp Stairs Order - Clarifies any-road behavior significantly.

@@ Line 29: / Line 29: @@
 == Decoding Warp Stairs Order ==
-In a shuffled game the warp stairs might be of use to you. But predicting and remembering which stair will take you where can be hard. Follow this rule.
+The any-road shortcuts form a loop of 4 destinations, and each staircase warps you forward in the loop. From left to right, the staircases advance Link by 1, 2, and 3 screens. To see all of the destinations, just keep taking the left staircase.
