Drawing ships: SHIP_SPLINTER

[Commodore 64 version, Game data]

       Name: SHIP_SPLINTER                                           [Show more]
       Type: Variable
   Category: Drawing ships
    Summary: Ship blueprint for a splinter
  Deep dive: Ship blueprints

    Context: See this variable in context in the source code
 References: This variable is used as follows:
             * XX21 uses SHIP_SPLINTER




 The ship blueprint for the splinter reuses the edges data from the escape pod,
 so the edges data offset is negative.
