That's interesting... amazing it works at all

QDOS doesn‘t seem to mind, but SMSQ/E does, which is why your poll routine was never linked in on QPC.

Makes sense. It looks like I got the old trap calls right (when I originally wrote the code) but the newer poll stuff wrong (blame my rusty 68000).

I'll update it and release over the weekend with a bit of luck.

Thanks for your help!

Not sure if the fix will improve things on emulators - in theory, if the poll routines weren't working, the game would just hang rather than running fast. (I think - end of a long week!)

Anyway, I've rebuilt with the moveq change and the links in the first post point to updated files.

Which was exactly what I said happened?

So you did. I got confused with Derek's comment that it ran too fast! Trying to juggle too many projects

Thanks for your help. I'm pleased to get this into a good (well, better) state.
