But as I say, I can probably work without it. As for the size of the random number generator, it’s fine – I think I actually have about 12b spare. But as I say, I can probably work without it.

I don't think it'll be a problem actually, I'm just working on finding a collection of seeds that work well. More of an issue may be that, going by the babelfish'd rules on the CC6 website, the intro should exit with a clear screen and restored stack. Clear screen I could do, but the stack is pretty much destroyed. And there's not really a definitive "exit" point - it runs until you get bored and hit reset. Hmm, I'll try to get someone to clarify the rules for me. I did consider another random number generator, but for the moment the R-register works ok.

(Or perhaps that's just too many bytes...) Have you considered borrowing the random number generator from Baze’s Z80 Bits page? (Or perhaps that’s just too many bytes…)
