My point exactly. this is one of the reasons why the PA3 engine can never be
changed into a scrolling engine.

I meant the IF...THEN as a simple example. Of course we use data tables to
define long rows of data. Only one IF THEN is necessary when you loop it
through a table of 1000 possible occurences.
