Summary0003831: DATA folder used by installer / icon but not specified in slave header
DescriptionA strange appearance in this one.

the Tooltype for the game includes a pointer for the data folder with : DATA=data (both image and disk versions) ... however, the slave header itself does not include this, and have a value of 0 for the ws_CurrentDir pointer.

This should be updated for a pointer to the ws_CurrentDir to go to string containing 'data' to resolve this.

This affects programs which read the slave header in order to determine the location of the data for the game, meaning a manual setting of the data= location is required.
Steps To ReproduceView Source code:

_base SLAVE_HEADER ;ws_Security + ws_ID
                dc.w 17 ;ws_Version
                dc.w WHDLF_Disk|WHDLF_NoError|WHDLF_EmulTrap ;ws_flags
                dc.l _CHIPMEMLG ;ws_BaseMemSize
                dc.l 0 ;ws_ExecInstall
                dc.w Start-_base ;ws_GameLoader
                dc.w 0 ;ws_CurrentDir
                dc.w 0 ;ws_DontCache
_keydebug dc.b 0 ;ws_keydebug
_keyexit dc.b $59 ;ws_keyexit = F10
_expmem dc.l _FASTMEMLG ;ws_ExpMem
                dc.w _name-_base ;ws_name
                dc.w _copy-_base ;ws_copy
                dc.w _info-_base ;ws_info
                dc.w 0 ;ws_kickname
                dc.l 0 ;ws_kicksize
                dc.w 0 ;ws_kickcrc
                dc.w _config-_base ;ws_config ; V17
Additional InformationShould be fixed with:

_base SLAVE_HEADER ;ws_Security + ws_ID
                dc.w 17 ;ws_Version
                dc.w WHDLF_Disk|WHDLF_NoError|WHDLF_EmulTrap ;ws_flags
                dc.l _CHIPMEMLG ;ws_BaseMemSize
                dc.l 0 ;ws_ExecInstall
                dc.w Start-_base ;ws_GameLoader
                dc.w _data-_base ;ws_CurrentDir
                dc.w 0 ;ws_DontCache
_keydebug dc.b 0 ;ws_keydebug
_keyexit dc.b $59 ;ws_keyexit = F10
_expmem dc.l _FASTMEMLG ;ws_ExpMem
                dc.w _name-_base ;ws_name
                dc.w _copy-_base ;ws_copy
                dc.w _info-_base ;ws_info
                dc.w 0 ;ws_kickname
                dc.l 0 ;ws_kicksize
                dc.w 0 ;ws_kickcrc
                dc.w _config-_base ;ws_config ; V17
_data dc.b "data",0
