@thomasadam@bsd.network Lots of disc games switch to the tape filing system after loading from floppy, so they can reuse the memory that would otherwise be used by the disc filing system. That would mean any *LOAD commands would then try loading from tape, which would appear to break if you were expecting it to load something from disc - not sure if that’s what you mean?
Glad you like the writing!
