; explosion seen when we're hit by enemy fire.
; flash the part of the screen where the lorchas are displayed.
; previously this flashed the whole screen, but it gave me a
; headache. plus, the apple version's "tv static" effect only appears
; on the lorcha area of the screen, so this is closer to the original
; than a fullscreen flash would be.
; we're not using a display list interrupt here. basically each flashed
; frame is:
; - sync CPU to ANTIC using VSYNC and WSYNC.
; - change HW color registers for text and background.
; - wait until enough scanlines have been drawn.
; - change the colors back to normal.
; pseudo-C for explosion():
; for(Yreg = flashes; Yreg > 0; --Yreg) {
; for(framecounter = jiffies; framecounter > 0; --framecounter) {
; // this loop body takes 1 jiffy to execute
; while(VCOUNT < startvcount)
; ;
; set_flashed_colors();
; while(VCOUNT < endvcount)
; ;
; set_normal_colors();
