> (1) Movement sounds are absent. When playing, the pieces should make movement sounds when changing squares on the board or during combat: knights walk, unicorns gallop, phoenix flaps, etc. These sounds are present when using a .WOZ or cracks, but missing in your initial ProDOS port. The interface sounds and attack sounds are present, however.

Thanks, I'll check on this.

> (2) If started from a drive that is not in Slot 6, but there is a Disk II device in Slot 6, the drive will seek constantly during gameplay. Repro: configure Virtual ][ with a SCSI II card in Slot 7 with one Omnidisk, and a Disk II card in Slot 6 with one Disk II. Put the .po in the Slot 7 Omnidisk and start playing ; once you get to the play board, the Disk II will seek constantly. (If the .po is in a Slot 6 Omnidisk there is no such seeking.)

It's a bug in the game which I don't know yet how to fix.
It's hitting $C0E9 by accident.
