Just posted to your blog:
For the timing, you need a few instructions of assembly code to be called
during interrupt 2 (typically called every 20 ms) and increment a counter, that
you can then read from SuperBASIC.
The only speed-independent QL games I know use either this method, or the STOP

Haven't seen the original message about flickering. It's often caused by
programs erasing the bacground before redrawing a sprite. I believe
For Havoc it might be, but SSG doesn't access odd addresses, so that's not the
issue. Only way to tell for sure would be to try it on a QL.

Hmm - I doubt this is a DP limitation and 4 pixels fits in perfectly
with the issue on Lands of Havoc which runs perfectly on a standard QL.
I really think this is an issue with the emulation on q-emulator. I
have sent a copy of both programs to Daniele.
I could be wrong about the MOVE.W to

I am not so bothered about DPs flicker as much as I am about the

I had the problem that I tried to post a comment using my google account,

I was just going to say that the issue of DP's sprite generator flickering

By the way, I do read your blog as an RSS feed, but have never given
feedback because I have none of the accounts needed to post comments.

SUSPEND has the problem that a) no user input can be processed in the
meantime and b) the runtime of the code that actually does something
cannot be taken into account, so depending on how muc
Yes that is looking good will try tonight, also the suspend in Turbo
may work too.
Thanks guys, Lee

Yes immediate action if a key is pressed but not to speed up if a key
is pressed and that the speed to remain constant if different systems
are used, i.e. I am writing the programme to work a required speed on
a standard QL and not change significantly if emulated at full speed.

Ah, that's perfect. I'd go with something like Wolfgang's extension.
