In order to save bandwidth at least a little, heres one
big article instead of several little ones:


Three questions: Border Collisions, Gel playfield collsions and
		educational discounts

ONE:

    How do I get border collisions to work properly???

    I have everything setup, and can even get gel to gel
    collision detection working.
    I set the Ginfo.*most variables to 
	    win->BorderLeft, win->BorderTop
	    win->Width - win->BorderRight, and
	    win->Height-win->BorderBottom

    My collisionborder() function never gets called!
    I have even their setting HitMask = MeMask = 0xffff
    so I know I am not confused about which bit goes to which function.

    I set the collisionborder() function as handler 0
    and collgelgel() function as handler 1
    the rest of the handlers are == 0.

    Is this one of those things that just didn't get implemented?

TWO:
    How can I detect gel to playfield collisions efficiently??

Three:
   Last year I heard rumors here on the net that CBM would
   announce some new things about educational discounts
   in 1990. Well, I'm listening -- Anybody at CBM care to
   comment? Please ? Pretty please? Pretty please with
   sugar on top?
