Add grotbags in later and a bit more, but due to the draw order I've not spotted any flicker due to display tim...

About two months so far! It's much easier to get a lot done when you're enjoying doing it. I've not had any real road blocks or problems along the way either with this amount of RAM free I've not had to cut anything back...well except my calculations on the compiled sprites were off, they were takin...

I've just a few things left to do before can begin testing properly. Some locations down in the dungeons to complete, but here's a (low-res) map of the world.
