So WERKS or INTERFACE don't seem to show all the RSC file stuff :shrug: but it mentioned ORCS in the sources, so found that and now lists way more stuff..

So likely I am missing the menu items currently even though they are in the code for the most part. .


EDIT:

Ahhh there you are!

Next, you'll fix everything and it will be 4 bytes too big for the ROM

Oh that's easy, remove 4 bytes from AtariTos and you get tiTs, seems like the obvious solution :lol:
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Now to see if the ticks behave :lol: :fire: :hide: :fire: EDIT: Nope FFS!
