I'd say it would result in dropping the energy on the square, so you can
pick it up afterward. This would imply the DROP command becomes obsolete.
This is, IMHO, a good thing. (simlicity)
I don't see any problem in using drop/atck 0 as skip. programs can be up
to 32kB anyway (or 16kB), so that is large. You have room for a routine
that checks it. Provided you have some private variables, that is.
