Centipede has a small set of messages that appear at fixed positions. Each is available in English, German, French, and Spanish. A few additional messages, such as the copyright notice and those used in the self-test code, bypass the message table.
There are a few special glyphs, for (C) and (P), but nothing from the iso-latin set.
Each character glyph occupies one 8x8 playfield cell. Position (0,0) is at the bottom-left corner, with Y increasing to 31 at the top of the screen. "Pos" is the position in normal orientation, "FlipPos" is the position when the screen is flipped for player 2 on a cocktail cabinet.
