I don't understand things anymore... The problem solved itself out of the blue(which I don't dislike ) but now I have another thing
Somehow a feedback signal doesn't always go everywhere.... When Snake eats an apple it will get longer but the signal doens't always leave the screen row it is in. I tried rs flipflops to see how far the signal would go but even in the feedback line itself doesn't it always get the signal while snake does. The RS's act that with and without a clock so I don't think it's the flipflop that is not doing what it should do.
When you play the game you'll notice that it doesn't always add the score when you eat an apple. That's how I noticed that the feedback signal somehow doesn't work properly.
To start the game:
Wait for the light on the control pad to go on 4 times
Reset on the score display set to on,
Reset on the main screen set to on,
Reset on the score display set to off,
Start on until snake starts to move.
If you don't follow these steps the screen and/or the display can do really weird.
