I suppose i should make a new save, titled "WIP CPU" (no one could ever search for that without tags) or "CONTROL UNIT"

should i make a flag register? or keep the flags as seperate registers

I wouldn't bother with a 29 bit carry, it complicates the adder and you'll rarely need it in practice. Your suggestion to do 28 bit calculations if you need to detect an overflow/underflow is much more practical.

I'm also not sure how i'd do a carry flag, but i feel like neg flag would serve that purpose in 28 bit calculations.

maybe add a pairity flag? but im struggling

i feel like i will go through it a lil more though

idunno if i should call it done and iterate on it in further versions
