Ball Game

Author:	H. Oka
Release:	"Mycom Basic Magazine" July 1991 Issue

H key and L key: Change the difficulty at the title screen.
Arrow Keys: Swap 2 tiles.

Note:

Particular attention should be paid when typing lines below.
note-for-ballgame

Each checksum is as follows (using version 3.1 coded by the "MSX•FAN" team).
checksum-of-ballgame

Sorry if there are any typos, however, I have tested my data, and had no problems.

Joystick support:

After modified the lines #200 ~ #220, you can use D-pad instead of arrow keys during the game.
After modified the line #420, you can use D-pad instead of H or L keys at the title sceen.
In addition, it recommends you to modify the line #420.

For Amiga CD32 + FDD users:

When using AmiMSX, gridlines override black lines, splitting that black lines and preventing the red ball for advancing.
To hide that gridlines, modify the line #140 as below.
In addition, 020 users also have to modify the line #290 because the game hangs up easily if CPU is 020.

It would also be recommended to change the value of "T1" in the line #420 to a larger value.

Joystick support:

"STICK(0)" is found in the lines #240 and #330.
"STRIG(0)" is found in the lines #230 and #680. The quickest way is to simply replace each "0" with "1".
In addition, modify the following lines.

D-pad holding Trigger 1: Swap 2 tiles. / Move the red ball.
Trigger 2: Restart the current level.
Trigger 2 holding D-pad up: Try another level.

Additional code:

Your cursor moves too fast. It recommends to modify the following line.

Amiga CD32 (MC68EC020) users don't have to modify that line.

For Amiga CD32 + FDD users:

AmiMSX can't draw tiles correctly because it can't "PAINT" in the screen5 mode.
Try another emulator or real machine. Type the following, first.
convey-amimsx-part1

"CONVEYIT.BIN" (the correct tiles data) will be created on the same diskette.
Don't save that modified code! Load the code again and modify it as below. (Now you can use AmiMSX.)

There is no sound of the conveyor belt yet, though.
