0x38 — PARTICLE

Resolves a character, calls CSsfHandler::SearchParticle, and decodes a position with GetPosisionCode30_38.

traced— handler traced, but no shipped script uses this opcode, so the operand layout rests on the trace alone with no real data to check it against.

Encoding

The command header is one 32-bit word, as described in §3 Instruction encoding:

 31            24 23            16 15             8 7              0
+----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+
|  flags         |  argument byte |  extra words   |  0x38          |
+----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+

Bits 8–15 give the number of 32-bit operand words that follow. Bits 16–23 are handed to the handler as a bitfield; on character commands bit 0 normally says whether a character selector word is present. Bit 31 is the keep-going bit.
