- Weird.. Both a slow processor and a fast one both run at the same frame rate,
- while I can get 25 fps.. I think that the graphics card is a bottleneck.
-
- To find processor Occupancy, press the 'O' key when you are driving.
- and yes, the manual is crap. It is the same one as the ST/AMIGA with a
- suppliment thrown in, and even this does not contain all the info. There
- is a readme file with last minute info in it.
