Pilotwings

Debugging functions
This patch will enable a handful of debugging functions. Each one is described below.

Level Select


At the craft selection screen, press X to make a number 0 appear at the bottom of the screen. Press L or R to toggle the level and press Start to choose your craft and begin the level. Note that this will also allow you to select craft(s) that are normally unavailable on each level. Doing so does not appear to have any adverse effects on the game.

Instant failure
Hold Select and press X during gameplay.

Debug Display


Hold Select and press Y during gameplay to add a debug display below the timer. There are seven displays total, and to toggle between them, hold Select and press Y.

"Bribe" the instructor


When the instructor comments on your performance, press Select to get an extra 100 points.

Jet Heli (unseen behavior)
With the Debugging function or the Pro Action Replay codes, the jet heli can be used in the lesson. The instructor states that the player must fly through the two rings. The controls are identical, but the game crashes upon attempting to load the score total screen.

The map crashes the player in the water, and the game over screen will always show 0 pts.



However, with the code (which changes the tileset), the helicopter can be used instead. Though the map is glitchy, the player can win this mission with 0 pts.

As a side note, in an older magazine scan of Dragonfly (an early version of Pilotwings), the helicopter is seen in the third lesson's maps.
