1, all damage will be animated simultaneously using fully-animated explosions, similar to
what happens when casting spells such as Fireball or Divine Thud.</dd></dd>
<dt>Type 203: Relocate Creature</dt><dd>This node forces a single creature to relocate to
a different space. Useful for cutscenes. It can handle either absolute or relative
movement.
However, it does not currently check that it is legal for the creature to be on that
space.
This can split the party into its individual members temporarily, similar to combat mode,
but they return to the party's original location once the node sequence ends.

<dt>Type 204:</dt><dd>This node places a text label on the terrain screen, for example to
indicate someone speaking. The label lasts only until the screen is next updated, but you
can optionally specify a delay to ensure there is time to read it.

<dt>Extra 1a, Extra 1b:</dt><dd>The X and Y coordinates of the location to place the
message. If Extra 1b is left at -1, Extra 1a instead specifies the number of a creature at
whose location the message should be placed (0-5 for party members, 6 for party location,
100+x for other creatures). If both are left at -1, the current targeted PC from the
Select PC node is used.</dd>
