Two zoom levels on a button, which the device already had
Forty columns and eighty are the same map, the same 8x8 cells and the same engine; only how many of them fit differs. The map is 128 by 128 either way and the moon is exactly 128 columns of it. And the front end scales whatever it is handed by the largest whole number that fits, so 320 by 200 at four times and 640 by 400 at twice fill the same glass. So the two modes ARE two zoom levels and nothing in the video device had to change to get them: forty columns shows under a third of the moon at twice the size, eighty shows nearly two thirds. Out for the orbit, in for the landing, and B says which. What did have to change is every screen coordinate in Lander, because the middle of the screen is 160 on one and 320 on the other. They now live in one block that setView copies over from whichever of two tables matches the mode, so a gauge reads a variable and never has to know which screen it is on. Several coordinates became sixteen bit on the way, since 620 will not go in a byte. follow already read HalfScreen and showLander already writes the world position straight through, so the lander itself needed nothing but its resting column. The moon is redrawn on a swap because it is filled as many rows deep as the mode shows, and a moon drawn 25 deep on a screen showing 50 floats over nothing. The swap is edge triggered. A pad is LEVEL and not an event, so a view that swapped while B was down would swap sixty times a second - which is not a zoom, it is a strobe, and it redraws the whole moon each time. The check for that holds the button for three hundred frames and requires the lander to land where a six frame tap left it; with the edge dropped it ends seventeen pixels adrift, which is the strobe costing it frames. Four checks, each seen to fail on its own break. The README's Lander entry also still described the relief orbit that the previous commit replaced, and now describes the one that is there.
