Varia/Gravity suit modifications for graphics/artwork

    I would like to rebalance the Varia and Gravity suits. I think some of this has been done previously, but I have extra specifics that I doubt are included.
    Alright, so I want to make it so it's fine to have one before the other and vice versa, as well as to reward the player for having both.
    What I'm looking for is...


    • Give Varia suit immunity to lava damage.
    • Remove the Gravity suit's immunity to both lava and heat bit damage.
    • Having one suit equipped gives 50% damage reduction (what Varia normally gives.) Having both equipped gives the Gravity suit's 75% damage reduction.

    And once again, I'm your man for graphics and art. If you're interested I can send pictures of stuff.

This is what I saw on the main site. I'm not sure about the others, though.

6E37D - 21 to 01
Removes Gravity suit's protection against heated rooms, meaning that Gravity suit can be collected first without making Varia useless (found by Jathys).

<PJBoy> change 9081DC from 20h to 01h
<PJBoy> that makes Varia stop lava damage
<PJBoy> 9081DB is a BIT #$0020
<PJBoy> it's checking the currently equipped items
<PJBoy> and 20h is the gravity suit
<PJBoy> 01h is varia
<PJBoy> hell you could use morph ball instead
<PJBoy> and using 21h will allow both to be invulnerable to lava
<PJBoy> (either or both)

Cool. The list is getting shorter. This should probably go on the site too, this is really useful.

Welp, all done. See you next mission.
