Looking good so far. I'm glad it's possible to only refresh parts of the screen. Should be faster. In TI-83+ BASIC when you draw something, it refreshes everything, which can be incredibly slow at times.

Yeah DJ, originally in the Main Menu it refreshed the screen ever 1/10th of a second, and it used to recompile the image over and over.
Then I made it to where it only loads the image once when the image variable is still nil,
Then I made it to where it only redraws below the image entirely.
Its a rough process of optimization

Cool to hear.
Also question: Is it your first Nspire project ever? If so, for now I would avoid venturing into scrolling yet and focus on the basics of the engine. It's best to start smaller then add more feature once you feel ready to. Also note that scrolling, unless the Nspire has actual scrolling commands, might slow things down.

Considering I dont even know what you mean by scrolling, I'll just take your word for it. And Yes this is my first Nspire project. Which is also why I'm completely open for any and all opinions/recommendations about the code

Oh I meant when your character is walking around, but on the screen what you see moving around is the trees, buildings, roads, etc, instead of just your character. That's scrolling. Another example of scrolling is the text in movie credits that moves up.

This is great, TI RPG is one of the best TI-nspire Basic games made and it's good to see it being ported to Lua.
Eventually you could make a graphical RPG

So, I've been hard at work porting all the code to Lua.
I get to a semi-stopping point, and pasted the code into the student software (after using the TI scripting tools) And when I past into a new page, it completely crashes the student software dead.
I even tried just commenting out the entire code and pasting it and it crashes. I loaded up an earlier version of the code and it pastes fine. So something I added since the last version is crashing the software even if its commented out.
If someone can glance through the code and find something that is likely the culprit, please let me know. I have some suspicions and I'm working on it, but I added hundreds of lines of code and restructured the entire source code since I last checked it on the Nspire software. Brother.

Well the student software is unfortunately not very reliable for testing. A lot of Lua games do not run correctly in it. You would have to test on-calc.
I guess you can post the code here too, though, in case people can help. Preferably in the Lua programming sub-forum, though.
Nice to see you again btw!

Yup, post your code like DJ_O said, and I (and others) will take a look at it.
You could try using nspire_emu too, since it runs the hand held OS.

I AM in the lua subforum?
Also, I posted the code in the main post. (its where I keep updating the code)
also also, I figured it out.
In the original TIRPG, he used UTF-8 symbols, and lua doesn't support them, so it immediately crashed.
I'll be updating the code in the original thread to be working for your testing pleasure.
Alsox3, Thank you for the prompt replies!

Oh wait yeah the topic is in the Lua section. If I remember it used to be under project, though. I probably forgot it was moved around a while ago.
And glad you figured out the problem.

Now that I have the next week off and can just solely work on this project. I'll have a completely functioning RPG here probably by monday night to then begin tweaks and GUI customizations. There isn't much code thats left to be ported from the NspireBASIC code. When I have it to where combat at least works, I'll post the .tns file itself as I hit each version so I can also get some feedback on what works and what doesnt.

That looks like great progress you've made recently. Don't forget credits to Superbany, who created the original game.
