Game input holds PET matrix keys down until you physically release them, which is best for arcade games. Type input keeps the original short-tap queue for entering BASIC commands.
Charset Auto lets PET software switch normally. Graphics or Business forces the selected character ROM for compatibility/testing.
Changing RAM or ROM resets the PET. Some programs need ROM2/ROM4 or 16K/32K.
The sound slider controls the emulated PET VIA speaker. Modern browsers require a click before audio can start, so Start Game also enables audio.
The emulator has an IEEE-488 device at address 8 for loading/saving .prg files.

Game Notes
"Atlantic Patrol" is a game written by R.D. Watts, known for developing software for the Commodore PET, a popular early personal computer. The game was published, but the specific publisher remains unknown. R.D. Watts was active in the late 1970s and early 1980s, creating several games and utilities for the Commodore PET, which was one of the first widely used personal computers.
The gameplay and specific mechanics of "Atlantic Patrol" are not well-documented, but it is likely a text-based or simple graphical game, typical of early computer games from that era. Given the time period and the platform, it may have involved strategy or simulation elements, as many early games focused on these genres due to hardware limitations.
Unfortunately, detailed information about "Atlantic Patrol" is scarce, and no surviving copies or screenshots of the game have been widely documented. R.D. Watts' other works, such as "Space Attack" and "Lunar Lander," are better known, but "Atlantic Patrol" remains an obscure title in the history of early computer gaming.
