Broke assumption that every item in a vertex description is a short, specifically turning lateral into a byte. Which buys me a byte for phase, if that's sufficient.

Fixed end of sync time calculation and ensured the pretend capacitor is emptied by the decision to retrace and doesn't refill during retrace.

Made a quick attempt to allow vsync triggers only on the raising edge of a sync signal. Will need to investigate more thoroughly.

I'm ashamed to admit, I: played with numbers until enough things looked stable such that I can investigate other things. Discovery: my PAL autodetection was way off. Fixed, hopefully.

Full separate 'lateral' usage is go. Also probably at some point I need to throw in a phase property, which this new flexibility will help with.

Started making the format of data included in a CRTFrame less a matter of variously hard-coded magic constants. Which will allow me to separate the idea of an internal lateral position from the direct texture coordinate, avoiding precision sampling errors at the top and bottom.

Fix to make sure end of vertical sync is always correctly spotted as an event, rather than just happening off the books. So I can now watch Joust roll to its heart's content.

Factored out a few more constants, started trying to ensure there's enough slack and the mechanisms in place for the CathodeRayView to hold onto two frames if it desires, for potential phosphor simulation, switched once again to additive blending — much more like a real CRT — and added a sine function across the width of spans per my understanding of how an electron gun actually fires.
Why do all this when overall timing is still so far off? It helps me more easily see how overall timing is so far off.

Continuing in my attempts to figure out the complete absence of graphics from some games: there are 262 lines on an NTSC screen, not 256. Also ensured that the CRT has a little spare range at the edges so that its generated triangles don't wrap around just because of integer overflow.

So, provisionally: this looks like (i) the one cycle to write; plus (ii) the number of cycles to get to the end of the pixels (which is _horizontalTimer+1 for me because _horizontalTimer = 0 is a pixel); plus (iii) one cycle of latency to wake up. Am I making that up? Time will tell.

Quick fix: add one cycle to get to the genuine end of the line (i.e. after cycle 0, not on it). Not 3, with the video then becoming desynchronised from the CPU clock.

Slightly expanded width of cathode ray gun, decided to figure out exactly how to deal with off-by-one lengths and precision at a later date, ensured that failure to catch vertical sync doesn't cause out-of-bounds buffer access on the hard-coded, assumed large enough, 512x512 data textures.
