Launching the game

Game was tested on real, unmodified Atari 65XE (64Kb RAM) PAL with SDrive Mini,
but should also be playable on NTSC (slightly different colors) and other Atari XL/XE variants.
Game was also tested on Altirra 4.20+ emulator.

Versions before 2.0.0 use ATR disk image of size 130Kb.
From version 2.0.0 disk size was increased to 180Kb, but files probably can be divided so it can still fit to 130Kb.

Disk is made bootable with XBOOT Loader and XBIOS by xxl, so game should load and start automatically.
If game doesn't start automatically try holding OPTION key (to disable BASIC) when booting.
Game saves campaign state to disk, so disk should not be write-protected.

Cursor in game menus can be controlled with joystick in Port 1. See all in-flight controls.

Note

Most pre- and post- flight pictures are displayed in GTIA mode so they may look strange on computers with bugged GTIA chip.
