I don't think that's going to work. Also that -4.5 that look dangerous.
I'm not sure that will always work the way you intend. I think that
might have dangerous side effects.

I'd be careful with those CODE sections they are meant to initialize
simple class attributes. Remember that they are in the main loop and
will run each time the loop is run (I'm working on that, it's more
difficult than it appears).
