-A '''wrap-around shot''' involves firing a beam shot diagonally off the far right side of a room to open a door that is on the far left side of a room.
+A shot that travels out-of-bounds can exhibit strange behaviors such as "wrapping around" to another part of the room. The exact behavior depends on the direction the shot is traveling, the layout of the room in memory, and quirks of the game's projectile collision detection. The most common application involves firing a beam shot diagonally off the far right side of a room to open a door that is on the far left side of a room.
-Any variation of [[Charge Beam|Charged]] [[Wave Beam|Wave]] should be able to perform this technique, although whether or not [[Spazer]] or [[Plasma Beam|Plasma]] are involved will affect what positions the beam can be fired from to still connect with the target door.
+To understand wraparound shots it's helpful to know how room tiles are stored in memory. Every room is stored one row after another, in the same order that you read (English) text on a page: left-to-right then top-to-bottom. For example, consider the [[Plowerhouse Room]]:
-It experiences the most use in categories involving a large amount of item collection, such as [[100%|100% Items]], [[100% Map Completion|100% Map]], and [[RBO|Reverse Boss Order]]. The two rooms where this is primarily performed are the [[Landing Site]], to open the door leading to the [[Gauntlet Energy Tank Room|Gauntlet Energy Tank]] so that Samus can [[shinespark]] through towards it, and [[Crocomire's Room]], to open the door leading to [[Post Crocomire Power Bomb Room|his Power Bombs]] so that Samus can shinespark or [[Space Jump]] through towards it.
+[[File:PlowerhouseRoom.png|x256px]]
-Beams disappear as soon as they are off-screen, so the beam must be at full width as it reaches the edge of the screen in order to trigger the door. You should hear the sound of the door opening if performed correctly.

-Generally, this does not work in reverse order (firing a beam shot diagonally off the far left side of a room to open a door that is on the far right side of a room), but it might be possible under extremely specific circumstances.
+A shot that is traveling diagonally off the right side of the room will wrap around to the next row and interact with tiles on the left side of the room. This is commonly used to open doors in order to shinespark through them:

A '''wrap-around shot''' involves firing a beam shot diagonally off the far right side of a room to open a door that is on the far left side of a room.

Any variation of [[Charge Beam|Charged]] [[Wave Beam|Wave]] should be able to perform this technique, although whether or not [[Spazer]] or [[Plasma Beam|Plasma]] are involved will affect what positions the beam can be fired from to still connect with the target door.

It experiences the most use in categories involving a large amount of item collection, such as [[100%|100% Items]], [[100% Map Completion|100% Map]], and [[RBO|Reverse Boss Order]]. The two rooms where this is primarily performed are the [[Landing Site]], to open the door leading to the [[Gauntlet Energy Tank Room|Gauntlet Energy Tank]] so that Samus can [[shinespark]] through towards it, and [[Crocomire's Room]], to open the door leading to [[Post Crocomire Power Bomb Room|his Power Bombs]] so that Samus can shinespark or [[Space Jump]] through towards it.

Beams disappear as soon as they are off-screen, so the beam must be at full width as it reaches the edge of the screen in order to trigger the door. You should hear the sound of the door opening if performed correctly.

Generally, this does not work in reverse order (firing a beam shot diagonally off the far left side of a room to open a door that is on the far right side of a room), but it might be possible under extremely specific circumstances.
