       Type: Subroutine
   Category: Sound
    Summary: Make an explosion sound
    Context: See this subroutine in context in the source code
 References: This subroutine is called as follows:
             * DEATH calls EXNO3
             * Main flight loop (Part 10 of 16) calls EXNO3
             * OOPS calls EXNO3
             * TACTICS (Part 1 of 7) calls EXNO3


 Make the sound of death in the cold, hard vacuum of space. Apparently, in
 Elite space, everyone can hear you scream.

 This routine also makes the sound of a destroyed cargo canister if we don't
 get scooping right, the sound of us colliding with another ship, and the sound
 of us being hit with depleted shields. It is not a good sound to hear.

 LDY #sfxexpl           ; Call the NOISE routine with Y = sfxexpl to make the
 BNE NOISE              ; sound of an explosion, returning from the subroutine
                        ; using a tail call (this BNE is effectively a JMP as Y
                        ; will never be zero)
