Graphics Card

Used to change what's displayed on screens. Computers can control the buffer of a bound screen via the GPU's API.

• Maximum resolution: 50×16/80×25/160×50.
• Maximum color depth: 1/4/8.
• Operations/tick: 1,1,4,2,2/2,4,8,4,4/4,8,16,8,8.

The operations refer to, from left to right: copy, fill, set, setBackground and setForeground. The number indicates the number direct calls that can be made to each of these functions on the graphics card per tick before an indirect call has to be made. See the page on component interaction for more information on direct calls.
