Or you can use my version of it in the inv3.bin I posted, which does make
possible empty fields. It would take some tweaking, but the concept would
work for the color version.

Can I torture you by not revealing how I did mine? :) Although you can
probably figure it out by looking at the binary, or in an emulator

I am.
