Yes, I believe they both work, but don't they produce the same sized code (or did Quigibo change this back)?

I tested and checked filesize. I only changed the display commands, nothing in the string.
I'm not a nerd but I pretend:

If the coordinates are constant you can save a lot of space. If the coordinates are separatley evaluated expressions then it doesn't matter.

(I think)

It's only more optimized to use Text(Y*256+X) if the two coordinates are constant.

Ah, I didn't realize this.  Thanks!
Why isn't this auto-optimized in Axe though?

Because Axe is sorely lacking in constant argument optimizations. :P

Which would be faster/more optimized to check for?
If rand^2
or
!If rand^2
Or would they be the same?

Like making a minigame out of axe, store it to appvar, and take it out from another axe program whenever I need it.

O.O SMC O.O
Uh, you can use that line to create the appvar, but put a ->VAR after GetCalc("appvWHATEVER"), and then use some Asm( magic to call the program as if it were a subroutine using the value in VAR as the address

It's code that modifies itself. Yours is kinda doing that.
