Marco, I don't have IntvWin here, but I just tried it on jzIntv, and I can't make the whole bridge happen, either. There's just a sliver of blue left at the ...

I have a suspicion that this has to do with MOB collision checking when the MOB is partway off the screen. In a discussion with Joe Z, it was determined that...

Nope, I was wrong. The problem in Nostalgia is with Mob-Mob collisions that are 1 pixel outside the screen boundary. Anyone else have a theory? I'm all out...

OK, this one is fixed. On Vdelay > 0, I was accidentally blanking the MOBs that fell in that area. That's why the ball disappeared. It didn't change anything...

Joe, the intv does not detect mob collisions in the last column of pixels. In fact, the last column of pixels isn't even rendered. It's blocked by the...
Kyle, I don't believe so. It appears to be some kind of boundary detection at the top of the screen - there are no other MOBs for it to interact with. As for...

Yup. Regardless of what the vdelay is, Nostalgia does flag a border collision when a part of the MOB bitmap is touching the border, so that's OK. The case...

... Uh, no. The border stays put and the MOBs move down. So, if a MOB collides with the border with v_delay=1, y_pos=3, it'll also collide when v_delay=3 and...
