miscellaneous new bbc and electron games • Re: Elite Compendium (BBC Micro + 16K SRAM) - the best Elite hacks, all in one place

Just thinking:

if running the compendium 2nd processor version off the bat doesn't work,

but running the editor version (option 5) and then running the 2nd processor version works,

and it's not a sideways ram issue,

then dumping the ram after the 2nd processor version has failed

&

dumping the ram after the editor has been run & then the 2nd processor version has run (and has worked)

& comparing the differences between the 2 dumps might reveal something?

=>I've just tried it using Sublime Text, which has a great compare function (highlights the differences between 2 files).

There are only 120 line differences between the 2 dumps (see attached) - and in a text editor like Sublime Text, the differences are all highlighted.

CMP2NW is the memory dump after the 2nd processor version stops working
CMP2OK is the memory dump after first loading the editor, then loading the 2nd processor version (i.e. working)

Any help or flawed logic?
