\ --- Mod: Code removed for Elite-A: ------------------> \.LAUN \ \ LDA #48 \ Call the NOISE routine with A = 48 to make the sound \ JSR NOISE \ of the ship launching from the station \ \ LDA #8 \ Set the step size for the launch tunnel rings to 8, so \ \ there are fewer sections in the rings and they are \ \ quite polygonal (compared to the step size of 4 used \ \ in the much rounder hyperspace rings) \ \ \ Fall through into HFS2 to draw the launch tunnel rings \ --- End of removed code ----------------------------->
