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.
