Raster Line?
Hi after recently coming back to the 64 after a long delay and loosing most of my disks, I have started to code again, but the problem i have is i cant remember how i used to detect the Raster/Scan line position.
I used to do a simple load a the screen line value and compare it to a register but i cant remember the register address, and cant find it in any of my old coding books, anyone now anymore? |

Mostly it's of course better to set up an y-position interrupt to do the screen timing. However, that's some more lines of code.. |

X position interrupts are more handy when it comes to splitting :P |

Why? I disagree. Using interrupts just adds overhead if you really don't need them (like running something on the background...) and I see no reason why interrupts are even as good a method, nor better - not to mention "of course" better, so please explain your thinking.
