Just out of curiosity, what is the Zorlon Cannon?

Yar's Revenge question of course. I mean is it a sprite, missile, ball, or part of the playfield (or background)?

On levels with the the neutral zone it's a big multicolor block. On levels with the zone it's three lines. That just seems kind of weird.

Run it in Stella, while it is visible press alt+comma. That will put Stella in "debug colors" mode and every TIA object will be given a unique color, allowing you to identify it. You can also use the alt z, x, c, v, b to enable/disable the p0, p1, m0, m1, ball respectively.

The Zorlon cannon is the greatest weapon ever conceived. It was the only weapon the Yars had that could destroy the evil Qotile.
