This code appears in the following versions (click to see it in the source code):

Code variations between these versions are shown below.

       Name: RESET
       Type: Subroutine
   Category: Start and end
    Summary: Reset most variables



 Reset our ship and various controls, recharge shields and energy, and then
 fall through into RES2 to reset the stardust and the ship workspace at INWK.

 In this subroutine, this means zero-filling the following locations:

   * Pages &9, &A, &B, &C and &D

Code variation 1 of 7A variation in the comments only

Tap on a block to expand it, and tap it again to revert.

Cassette, 6502SP, Master, Electron
Flight, Docked
   * BETA to BETA+6, which covers the following:

   * BETA to BETA+8, which covers the following:


     * BETA, BET1 - Set pitch to 0

     * XC, YC - Set text cursor to (0, 0)

     * QQ22 - Set hyperspace counters to 0

     * ECMA - Turn E.C.M. off

Code variation 2 of 7A variation in the comments only

This variation is blank in the Cassette, 6502 Second Processor, Master and Electron versions.

Flight, Docked
     * ALP1, ALP2 - Set roll signs to 0

 It also sets QQ12 to &FF, to indicate we are docked, recharges the shields and
 energy banks, and then falls through into RES2.

Code variation 3 of 7A variation in the comments only

This variation is blank in the Disc (flight), Disc (docked), 6502 Second Processor and Master versions.

Cassette, Electron
 Other entry points:

   RES4                 Reset the shields and energy banks, then fall through
                        into RES2 to reset the stardust and the ship workspace
                        at INWK

Cassette, Flight, Docked, Electron
6502SP, Master
 JSR ZERO               \ Zero-fill pages &9, &A, &B, &C and &D, which clears
                        \ the ship data blocks, the ship line heap, the ship
                        \ slots for the local bubble of universe, and various
                        \ flight and ship status variables

Code variation 5 of 7Specific to an individual platform

Tap on a block to expand it, and tap it again to revert.

Cassette, Docked, 6502SP, Master, Electron
Flight
 LDX #6                 \ Set up a counter for zeroing BETA through BETA+6

 LDX #8                 \ Set up a counter for zeroing BETA through BETA+8

.SAL3

 STA BETA,X             \ Zero the X-th byte after BETA

 DEX                    \ Decrement the loop counter

 BPL SAL3               \ Loop back for the next byte to zero

Code variation 6 of 7Specific to an individual platform

This variation is blank in the Cassette, Disc (flight), Disc (docked), 6502 Second Processor and Electron versions.

Master
 STX JSTGY              \ X is now negative - i.e. &FF - so this sets JSTGY to
                        \ &FF to set the joystick Y-channel to the default
                        \ direction

Code variation 7 of 7Specific to an individual platform

Tap on a block to expand it, and tap it again to revert.

Cassette, Electron
Docked, 6502SP, Master
Flight
 STX QQ12               \ X is now negative - i.e. &FF - so this sets QQ12 to

                        \ We now fall through into RES4 to restore shields and

 TXA                    \ X is now negative - i.e. &FF - so this sets A and QQ12
 STA QQ12               \ to &FF to indicate we are docked

 TXA                    \ X is now negative - i.e. &FF - so this sets A to &FF

.REL5

 STA FSH,X              \ Set the X-th byte of FSH to &FF to charge up that
