Thanks!

You could make your game compatible with all 16K CoCo 1/2 models if you changed the ORG address from $4000 to $1E00.

Yes. Safe for all CoCo models.

If it is a bug did Compusense ever correct it? I don't know, but it can easily corrected by changing the value at $C042 from 3 to 1. @Bosco: Adding the following code to the start of your game will prevent these problems by making sure that that the hardware is always correctly set up and IRQ enabl...

For some reason (bug?) DEMON always sets bit 2 of $FF03 (IRQ on LO to HI instead of the default IRQ on HI to LO) when the computer is first switched on or cold reset. Enter POKE65283,PEEK(65283)AND253 to clear bit 2 before EXECing the game.

No. The interrupt mask (I) is cleared by the RTI instruction. Inside the Dragon describes the reading of $FF02 as "Clearing the interrupt condition".
