File Description
This demonstrates a new menu system that should by far more user friendly and useful then the traditional dropship/gateway based selection systems. This menu system is the result of three components:

1. A location grid system that will move a 7x7 grid of locations to any coordinate in the map. Each location is 8 pixels by 8 pixels so the area covered is 56x56 pixels.

2. A font system that will draw any standard ASCII letter using burrowed zerglings in the 7x7 area, death counter arithmetic is used for new lines and the ETX character is used to indicate the final character in the string. Each death counter stores 4 characters since death counters are 32-bit and characters are 7-bit.

Ascii Table

3. A selection system which uses zerglings and burrow to select options in the menu-system.

ihjel -- The shoutbox should be replaced with a live feed of the discord so the side doesn't look as dead.
