So it's sacrilege to change the end condition, but not to introduce
vertical conveyors? :-)

That's terribly wasteful. RRCA twice will do it.

Or, of course, you could base your game on the Henry's Hoard
engine, which has item colour settable by room.

Something for me to remember when I finally get around to writing up
my JSW Room-Format...

It uses the field which JSW (and JSWED) calls 'border'. In Henry's
Hoard the border is always black, so this field becomes surplus to
requirements.
