A jal is a point in the data where another address is stored, when it reaches this jal it jumps to the address stored inside it. Its basically just jumps to different points in the data.

Its something like this

0xJump zeus
0xKill zeus
<0xJal kill johnny
--0xkill cannon
--0xhi crap here
--slbklaj
--blja
>0xKill Johnny

100% Makes Sense:no:

JAL is a Jump and Link. So for example like a regular boot code. the JAL jumps to the an addy that gives error 12.
OR in subroutines..vvvvv

Hooks-Calls (Jumps) to a certain address. The reason we need a hook
is because, when you use a routine, your in a NOP's area. NOP
area isn't in the games CPU, which means it isn't called upon
to be executed by the game.
The hook is what makes the game read it. Without it
you just have a routine that isn't even read by the game.
