Hi Rasty! >> Well, the result is attached.

I can freely display all three "particles" :-) One issue is, that the missiles are double copies, just like the sprite. It's ok for the starfield, but it means that one needs to use the ball for the lasers. > Will there be issues with repositioning when > multiplexing? Phew... I think it's doable. Though for Starship 1 I wouldn't even try: There's only to objects on screen at a time, so I'd do plain flicker. The more severe issue would be softsliding those big ships in and out at the sides of the screen. This will require some tricky coding. >> BTW: It's a proof of concept for a Seawolf 2 port >> with big enemy ships as well :-) > That would be intriguing as well!! Seawolf 2 could do only 24 pixel ships. You'll need one missle unreflected to display at least 4 (flickered) torpedos at once. But the gained cycles may reintroduce colored sprites.
