mode and JSW128 and if you want to make it into a 2ndary air pattern,
you have this 'dragging down' effect whenever you touch it.
But looking at it again, I wonder if it could be used for puzzle
effect. The main problem I have is wondering what it should look like,
but that's not important to the gameplay. I'll try experimenting with
it in a few extra rooms in Strangel.
