Summary	00524: rougien: [possible] In the very end of the tunnel screen, the graphics of the exit gate is broken.
Description	In the very end of the tunnel screen, the graphics of the exit gate is broken. If you loose the last ship crashing into the "gate", a weird case happens: you still can shoot from the left corner of the screen pressing the fire button, until the title screen arrives. Occasionally (maybe rarely), the game can freeze in the "continue" screen.

No.06430 robiza Developer Jul 25, 2010, 08:10	the gfx data are splitted in two parts called videoram and colorram the char code have 8 bits from videoram and 2 bits from colorram at the end of the tunner the code write in the colorram a #0e value; with this value, i think, the gfx disappear (maybe the color become the color of the background) maybe someone can check with the real hw

I'd assume it's there but not seen on arcade hardware due to this. Many times, a game on emulation will show different levels of 'black' even though it's indistinguishable on actual hardware. Actual PCB recording of attract (Thanks Andrew W.)
