keypress, loading map with xbios, in madPascal crashes

[drunkeneye]

i am running from one problem into the next and would need help-- again...

 

i can now load maps using xbios, and my main program looks basically like this

 

procedure loadMap();
begin;
  scrname[1] := char($41+currentMap);
  fntname[1] := char($41+currentMap);
  xbunAPL (fntname, Pointer(CHARSET_ADDRESS));
  xbunAPL (scrname, Pointer(TXT_ADDRESS));
end;


begin
  asm;
    jsr xbios.xBIOS_SET_DEFAULT_DEVICE
  end;
  SystemOff;
  currentMap := 0;
  loadMap();

  // some init stuff

  paintPlayer(0);
  Poke($D20E, 0); // turn off all IRQs
  repeat;
    asm;
    loop:
            lda skctl        ; ANY KEY
            and #$04
            bne loop
            lda kbcode
            sta ch
    end;
    MoveCurrentPlayer(ch);
    loadMap();
    Poke($D20E, 0); // turn off all IRQs again
  until false;
end;

 

this works-- if i press the key to move only after loading has clearly finished.

if i press the keys too fast, seemingly during xbios loading (in the background?),

it somehow crashes. not sure where and especially not why.

 

so i am sure i am missing something 'small', because i do not understand atari.

 

can anyone help me out again?

xIRQEN          equ xBIOS+$3e8 ; User IRQ (1 byte)

 

can be configured via the xB header, file or used as desired after program startup.
