STARMASTER

2 versions exist with both NTSC and PAL.  The original versions have a bug in the code that causes the screen to roll.  See the bug entry below.

Pressing LEFT+RIGHT or UP+RIGHT allows you to quickly “warp” in the sector you’re in (helps to either find or avoid enemy objects).

The Difficulty switches act the same as the TV Type switch. The manual simply says not to use them during a game.

BUG: If you manage to save all 4 stations on the highest level (StarMaster mode), you’ll end up with a score below 100 (instead of closer to 10,000)!  This is the result of a carry overflow error in the score calculation routine.

BUG: The original releases of the NTSC and PAL carts exhibit a scrolling picture, due to the VSYNC pulse lasting for only 2 scanlines instead of 3.
