Yes. It appears while running in interpreted mode, and in the compiled
software. I've been getting around it by buying second hand Amigas
with KS3.0 ROMS in them but that's crazy because at the rate they fail,
(hard drives refusing to boot, video chips getting fried occasionally,
floppy drives getting stuffed by dust) we aren't going to be able to
sustain
our system for too much longer. Tough luck for passengers, they'll just
have
to take pot luck to get to their train on time.
I am using AMAL to scroll screens up and down, and left and right. I am
also using the serial port functions. What I really need to know is what
hardware or firmware - specific code exists within AMOS, and then
I need to find out what is actually different between KS3.0 and KS3.1 so
I can track the problem down and maybe avoid it in future.
Unfortunately, I am legally unable to give you my code (as much as I
would
like to) because it belongs to Queensland Rail.
