There is a platform at (9,7) in Amoebatrons' Revenge whose third row of pixels is animated as if it were a conveyor. This is because there is a conveyor defined at that location (see F66F), but the cavern layout places regular platform tiles there instead of conveyor tiles.

To disable the animation (by moving the conveyor up a row to (8,7), which is occupied by background tiles):

POKE 63088,7

The code that decreases the air supply when Willy is in the light beam in Solar Power Generator doesn't check whether the air has run out, and so depending on the remaining air supply at 80BC and the game clock at 80BD when Willy enters the beam, he will not necessarily die when the air runs out; instead the air supply is replenished a little and then depleted, repeatedly up to eight times - until the game clock hits zero upon exiting the beam-controlling routine at 8D73.

To see Willy survive eight air supply depletions, use the following POKEs:

If Willy jumps left over the two nasties at the bottom right of Eugene's Lair such that he lands on the top layer of bricks with animation frame 3 at step 16 of the jumping animation, he will then fall through them to the bottom layer of bricks:

Step 15	Step 16	Step 17	Step 18

This happens because the section of code at 8B10 - which is executed during jumping animation step 16, after Willy's y-coordinate has been updated so that he's exactly one cell height above the place he jumped from, but before his x-coordinate has been updated - checks whether there are any nasty tiles in the cells below Willy's sprite. If there are (as is the case here), the code jumps forward to 8B51, which makes Willy proceed to the next jumping animation step (as if the bricks were not there), instead of landing on the bricks.

Perhaps the assumption in this code is that if there is a nasty tile below Willy's sprite in step 16, then he will be killed by the nasty before reaching step 17; however, in this particular case Willy's x-coordinate decreases by one during step 16 (as he transitions from animation frame 0 to frame 3), which moves him out of the nasty's range.

It's also possible to jump and land inside a wall block even when there is no nasty next to it.

If Willy's animation frame is 0 at step 16 of the animation while Willy is jumping left, the code at 8C9C checks whether Willy is free to move left across a cell boundary. However, the part of that code that checks whether there is a wall tile below Willy to the left is skipped when Willy's sprite is cell-aligned (i.e. when his y-coordinate at 8068 is a multiple of 16), which is always the case at step 16. Consequently, Willy moves left across the cell boundary and then, in step 17, he moves down into the wall block below before any check is made for wall blocks beneath him, eventually landing with animation frame 2.

Places where this can happen are:

Eugene's Lair	The Sixteenth Cavern	Solar Power Generator

Similarly, if Willy's animation frame is 3 at step 16 of the animation while Willy is jumping right, the code at 8CD6 checks whether Willy is free to move right across a cell boundary. However, the part of that code that checks whether there is a wall tile below Willy to the right is skipped when Willy's sprite is cell-aligned (i.e. when his y-coordinate at 8068 is a multiple of 16), which is always the case at step 16. Consequently, Willy moves right across the cell boundary and then, in step 17, he moves down into the wall block below before any check is made for wall blocks beneath him, eventually landing with animation frame 1.

Places where this can happen are:

Central Cavern	The Cold Room	The Vat	The Sixteenth Cavern

When Willy lands inside a wall block, he can walk straight through it unless another wall block is in the way.

When a Skylab in Skylab Landing Bay crashes into a section of floor or conveyor, the attributes of that section are temporarily changed to that of the Skylab; the attributes are restored after the Skylab has finished disintegrating.

The reason for this is that the code at 8E5F (which is used to set the attributes for a Skylab) sets the attributes in not two but three rows of cells, to handle the case where a guardian's sprite is not cell-aligned. However, when a Skylab crashes, it is cell-aligned, and so its attributes needlessly bleed over to the floor or conveyor cells immediately below it.

As Willy enters Solar Power Generator, the blue vertical guardian can be seen casting a 'shadow' over the floor immediately below it.

This happens for the same reason as a Skylab's colour bleeds over into the floor below when it crashes - see Attribute crash. This effect does not occur on subsequent occasions when the guardian approaches the floor, because it never actually touches the floor again - its maximum pixel y-coordinate is 79, one less than its original y-coordinate of 80 (see Out of bounds).
