I found a bug where I wasn't properly setting up G1 (where I do the render then copy to G0). I fixed that (had to actually DIMGROB(G1...) and also moved the CurrentGen and NextGen matrices to app global variables to reduce memory load from passing by value. There are more optimizations to do but I think this should get over the first set of issues. I also default to a size 50 square grid (works for me on my PC simulator and my G2 Prime).

Code is updated both here and on github
