While it should rarely be necessary, the presence of the raster line interrupt does allow for the re-use of sprites during the rendering of a single frame; the maximum number of effective sprites possible on screen in a single frame has not been experimentally demonstrated.

## Tile Data
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The individual tile bitmaps are 8x8, 8x16, 16x8, or 16x16 pixel bitmaps, which can be in a 1, 2, 4, or 8bpp format, with each pixel stored as a colour palette index.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Map Data
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Tilemaps are stored as sequences of two-byte structures. The interpretation of those bytes depends on the settings of the layer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1BPP Tile Mode
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In 1bpp tile mode, with the `T256C` flag cleared, the first byte of the map data is an index into the tile data, and the second byte is split into two nybbles, the low-order nybble holding the foreground colour, and the high-order nybble holding the background colour for that tile.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In 1bpp tile mode with the `T256C` flag set, instead the second byte is the foreground colour of the tile, with the background colour being transparent.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2/4/8BPP Tile Mode
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In other bit depths, tile mode interprets the first byte of the map data is the low-order eight bits of the tile index. The second byte is interpreted as follows:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The low two bits of the second byte are the high-order bits of the tile index.
|
||||||
|
- Bits 2 and 4 control horizontal and vertical flipping of the bimap used for that position in the map.
|
||||||
|
- Bits 4-7 contain a 4-bit palette offset.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Palette offsets modify the colour indices in the tile data as follows:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Color 0 (transparent) and 16-255 are used as-is
|
||||||
|
- Colours 1-15 are modified by adding the product of the palette offset and 16 -- that is, if the palette offset is 2, then colours 1-15 will have 32 added to the palette index.
|
||||||

With appropriate configuration of registers, it is possible to perform sequential 16-bit reads and writes to VERA address space:
