You can use adc_bailout to limit the deepth you reach. When you exeed max_trace_level,
the colour 
returned is black. When you stop due to adc_bailout, the colour returned is whatever
you have up to 
that point.
You need to change the code to exeed max_trace_level 255. Probably limited by the size
of some aray.
