This code appears in the following versions (click to see it in the source code):
Code variations between these versions are shown below.
.SHIP_ESCAPE_PODName: SHIP_ESCAPE_POD Type: Variable Category: Drawing ships Summary: Ship blueprint for an escape pod Deep dive: Ship blueprints
In the enhanced versions, the escape pod ship blueprint contains the information in the high nibble of byte #0 that scooping escape pods gives us slaves.

EQUW 16 * 16 \ Targetable area = 16 * 16 EQUB LO(SHIP_ESCAPE_POD_EDGES - SHIP_ESCAPE_POD) \ Edges data offset (low) EQUB LO(SHIP_ESCAPE_POD_FACES - SHIP_ESCAPE_POD) \ Faces data offset (low)
The advanced versions of Elite have an extra edge count for the ship colour; escape pods are shown in cyan.

In the cassette version, the escape pod stores its faces with a scale factor of 8, while the other versions store them at a more accurate factor of 16.
