I've seen the odd person ask for a Formula One name editor from time
to time*** and, as it's an ol' fave, thought I'd add one as I can
never find the one with updated drivers done years back.

***I've seen some ask for graphics changes too but I'll be f***** if
I'm doin' that 

It's been added in BloatCode but it does the job and comprises...

Edit Year - Valid start years are 1985(original default)-2100

Drivers/Teams/Managers/Sponsors - These can all be fully edited and
have already been updated to reflect this years championship.

Stats update...

Points - This years championship sees the first 8 drivers receiving
points. In the game, only the first 6 scored and it is also possible
(highly likely) for only six drivers to finish so the points have
been altered thus...

1st - 10 points
2nd - 8 points
3rd - 6 points
4th - 5 points
5th - 4 points
6th - 3 points

7th and 8th places scoring 2 and 1 point(s)respectively are left out.

Races - Locations and Tracks updated to reflect this years
championship. Again, only 16 races are in the game so the first two
have been omitted (Australian and Malaysian GP's). Length of names
saw to that really. No. of laps and track lengths updated accordingly. 

Lap records/Previous Race winners/ Constructors - Correct at start of
2004 season. If you break a lap record, you really will be the new
world record holder! Gosh! 

Personalized version's can be knocked up in a jiffy - available via PM.

Instructions
------------
You must start with either the snap (tested a bit  ) or the tzx
(tested a bit less   )

You can then continue playing them (saving snapshots en route) or...

press 'S' during a race to save your game at the end of that particular
race or wait until the end of a season. You can then load the resulting
save into any copy of Formula One thereafter. Of course, the editor
would be no more but you would have already made any alterations by
this point.

Theoretically you only need to use the sna/tzx for just one race.


Many thanks to the authors of Spin for the excellent assembler contained
therein, also to Woody and obo for the stack advice.

Original Program Bugs
=====================

Bug1:
There is a tiny attribute error in the original program... Whenever it
prints the current GP name on the race screen, one letter sometimes
appears darker than the others :/ This can be corrected with
Poke $FF08,$4E (65288,7

-Already corrected but will revert back if own copy used after a save.

Bug2:
Everytime a season is completed you need to reselect your sponsors.
You see the message 'Press A to M for Selection'
The space between the 'A' and 'to' is overwritten with other data.
This has nothing to do with the mod.
