Summary	09097: drgnunit: Info on "Unknown 1-8*" dip switch.
Description	Looked through the code and discovered what the "unknown" dip switch does: When set, at the start of the stage, you get a bonus 20 seconds added to the timer. So, for instance, on Stage 1, you normally get 110 seconds, but with the switch set you get 130 seconds. That's all. The code that handles this starts at 0x01E10 and ends at 0x01E3A in the main CPU.

The default times for each round are different: Rounds 1 and 4 starts off with 110 seconds, Round 2 with 130 seconds, Round 3 with 80 seconds, etc. This dip switch adds an extra 20 seconds to those times.
