Overview
LAN Background in Main Menu is a Gecko code created by AdolescentSeagull. It uses the background that is shown on the LAN Mode and LAN entry screens instead of the blue star background. The backgrounds used on the other screens (Records, Options, Title and all the LAN screens) are unaffected.

Technical Information
The constructor function MenuBackground::MenuBackground is overwritten to use new code:
- The background is obtained from lanentry.arc found in SceneData/<Language>/ and is loaded by using the function SequenceApp::loadTask.
- After calling the constructor J2DScreen::J2DScreen, LANBackground::setup is called to set up the LAN background.
- Similarly, the MenuBackground:::calc function jumps to LANBackground::calc for the LAN Background animation.
Finally, to ensure that the game does not crash due to lack of memory, the back.arc file that is usually loaded (in SceneFactory::loadData) for the blue star background is not loaded in this cheat code.
Since most of the changes are related to MenuBackground::MenuBackground, this does not affect the other screens including the LAN screens.
