Ants! You'd also be limited to 128 of 'em by the VERA capping at 128 sprites, unless doing something clever.

It would have been nice if the sound could play in the background so the ready prompt does not have to wait for the sound to finish before showing. Easiest way to achieve sound playback in the background is to dump to the PCM buffer and forget about it. But then it gets crunchy due to being limited...

Interesting library. I kinda like this queue system; it reminds me of the ECS pattern, at least the System part of it. Some ideas, not so much requests: Overloads to only add a task if it isn't already in the queue. For example, in a multiplayer game, if two players press the Start button on the sam...

I have a foggy recollection my...

Thanks, Tom and MooingLemur. I thought that could just be moved to mouse_config but it seems things got a little more complicated. At least it wasn't by much. Hopefully the reduced clobbering will merged one way or another.

Only tested in Ubuntu MATE and Chrome OS. Reproduction steps: Set your operating system's keyboard layout to English (UK). Certain keys produce unexpected characters (apostrophe -> left arrow, hash -> backtick, etc.) Execute KEYMAP "EN-GB" The keys will still be wrong. Alternative reproduc...

The emulator is missing the ability to properly emulate a PS/2 keyboard (and mouse, for that matter - I won't go into that here since it's just too much). Notably the typematic rate, also known as repeat rate. For example, if I hold down an arrow key in VICE, the cursor moves at a rate of something ...

The byte containing the collision mask, Z-depth, H-flip and V-flip gets reset to $0C whenever the mouse is moved. The offsets containing its address, mode, size and palette offset are not reset, so I don't see why that one needs to be. This behaviour makes it awkward to write programs that make use ...

This seemed to go down pretty well on Discord, so here it is on the forums as well - the behemoth that generates pi! It can be extremely slow, so you may wish to switch to SCREEN 3, 4 or 6 before running. This reduces the time it takes to run to about 20, 5 or 1 minute, down from the 5- or 1-and-a-h...

Oh. Me me big dumb. Just leave [MONO] as it is, then.

Edit: Or change it how Stephen suggested. My point is: whitespace/indentation removal isn't an issue when used for inline purposes.
