SPRITE PRIORITY (command)

With the SPRITE PRIORITY command you can indicate if the sprite has a priority in respect of characters.

Note that the keyword to use is only PRIORITY, which must therefore be preceded by the SPRITE keyword and the sprite index. It is possible to put multiple PRIORITY instructions side by side, but obviously the processor speed is such that only the last one will be the one that counts.
