This is a (very) simple patch that makes it so Super Metroid's missile (pink) doors open with a single missile, rather than five, like the ones in Metroid Zero Mission and the Metroid Prime series. I created it for myself as I prefer Zero Mission's style, but I decided to release it publicly on the chance someone else wants to play with it. I recommend using this with Kejardon's
http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/405/ patch, for an experience even closer to Zero Mission.

This is a (very) simple patch that makes it so Super Metroid's missile (pink)
doors open with a single missile, rather than five, like the ones in Metroid
Zero Mission and the Metroid Prime series. I created it for myself as I prefer
Zero Mission's style, but I decided to release it publicly on the chance someone
else wants to play with it. I recommend using this with Kejardon's Control Freak
patch, for an experience even closer to Zero Mission, although it's certainly
not needed:

2. Patching
**********************************
This patch applies to the US/Japanese version of the game, not the European
version. Two IPS patches are included, one for headered ROMs, one for unheadered.
Use the patch that corresponds to your ROM. If you do not know if your ROM has a
header or not you can use NSRT to find out:

Linux: http://www.romhacking.net/utils/401/

**********************************
Jathys, and anyone else responsible for having the number of missiles needed
to open the doors editable in SMILE. It took me longer to type this readme than
to make and test the hack, so don't bother crediting me if you wish to use it in
anything, anyone can do the same thing in seconds with SMILE.

I highly doubt such a simple patch will have any problems, but if any are
found feel free to contact me about them:
