Added you both to the list.

Also, gained 2 levels today (lvl 6 now) and I'm loving it. =)

Axe / Re: Physics Lessons
« on: March 13, 2010, 11:27:25 pm »
All this does is remind me of how I never paid enough attention in Physics class. xP
Nice to see my wasted education in code form though. I sometimes have a hard time taking real life concepts and converting them to code effectively.

Then again, I'm probably not gonna play this for more than a week or two anyway so I better just have fun with it while I still find it interesting, right?

xD My thoughts exactly. It's great for making me feel good about myself while I wait for FFXIII or Resonance of Fate to get here from Gamefly. (Also, looking forward to Aika Online's Open Beta.)

I also remember the WoW craze of 2005: like half of MaxCoderz new members started playing WoW and vanished or slowly became less and less active x.x

Funny thing is, now everyone (even Blizzard) is saying that WoW is dying right now. The new expansion will probably fix that for awhile though.

:P yeah I thought about going Hacker, but then I was like "meh, too easy", so I decided to try out the Emo, and it's been pretty good so far. Im up to level 3 right now, but I have to wait another 8 hours to restore my # of forum visits.

Heard that Emos get stronger as their ego (HP) goes down. Seems like a more fun class to play with than some of the others.
Congratz on the levels.
I just hit level 4 today myself. (almost 5) Also, the rollover of forum visits are the exact same time for everyone.
I'd give a list of that time for each timezone, but we have to move the clock forward an hour tonight so it'd be confusing.

You can't. Like I said, you can only play a little bit per day. Unless you pay, you get 4 forum visits a day so it really doesn't take much time. =P

Also, LOL @ trev
Glad to see someone who's not a Hacker. Kinda wondering what these other classes play like myself.

Makes sense for a community of programmers to want to use code to wreak havoc. =)

Thought: I was thinking that the Omnimaga Klan should be called "Coders of Tomorrow".

Miscellaneous / Re: How did you find Omnimaga?
« on: March 13, 2010, 07:55:28 pm »
Let's see... first time I found the place was near the end of the forum system we used before Zetaboards. I was googling TI-basic stuff to learn how to program and the place came up. Stalked a bit. Joined with a crappy version of Nyaar as my first project, got a bit of support, and stayed around (although not hugely active) until I got on one day to see Omnimaga was down for good.

Well, at that point I just kept coding and stayed away from the community. Then, one day for no reason at all, I typed "omnimaga.org" into my address bar to see what would happen and this place came up. So... I joined, kept working, became staff, became admin, went back to staff, and here I am. =)

Haha, all three of us are Hackers. I pretty much knew this would happen. =P

Made a list on first post of players and links to their profiles.

Humour and Jokes / Hell's Newest Knight
« on: March 13, 2010, 03:49:21 am »
My post count has pleased Satan.

I have been contacted by his people and they are going to take me to Hell for training so that I may join their army's most elite force.
Unfortunately, this means I shall no longer have time for 'programming' or 'games' as I must prepare for the End War. When that day comes, I hope to not cross any of your paths, but if I do, I'd advise you run for I will kill you without hesitation. It's my sole purpose now. I must fight for my master.

I am now a Hell Knight. Even the forces of Heaven cower at the mention of my name.
I due time, you shall all know that fear... but not for long. I don't plan on letting anyone live.

Well, I hope you guys enjoy the game. If you have any questions... there's a wiki there, but feel free to ask me anyway. =P

Oh, and weee~ my 666th post~

TI-BASIC / Re: Lots of Questions (I'm a newb ^_^)
« on: March 13, 2010, 03:34:26 am »
DJ Omni is right. Lists can be used even outside of a program.

However, if you mean like what if two entirely different programs somehow use the same list, then one program's info will overwrite the other or it'll just try to take information from the list which will most likely result in errors or just plain wrong information unless the lists just somehow sync up. (Example, if you made a sequel that uses the character's data from the original or if you had to separate one game into several chapters due to size.)

As stated before, lists are your best bet.

All you'd need to set it up is something like this:
{LEVEL,CURRENT_HP,MAX_HP,CURRENT_MP,MAX_MP,MONEY→LCHAR
e.g.
{1,100,100,75,75,0→LCHAR
(Note: LCHAR can be replaced with any other name, like LSTATS or just LA)

From that point on, you can refer to a stat like this:
Say, if you need to get their level...
LCHAR(1) will get it. From there, say they leveled up just do LCHAR(1)+1→LCHAR(1)
LCHAR(4) will get the current MP and you can see the pattern.

If you want to save, you'll need a separate list for that or if there's only one save, then you can just leave the list as is.
Lists are on the calc regardless of whether you're in a program or not so if you only have one save, then a new char will overwrite the original list, and continuing would just use the list as is.
With multiple saves you'd do something like this:
LCHAR→LSAVE1 (for the first slot)
LCHAR→LSAVE2 (for the second, etc.)

Loading is the opposite,
LSAVE1→LCHAR
etc.

Throughout the program, all you'll need to refer to is LCHAR for stats and such though and only mess with the save files to save or load.

*Click image.

ForumWarz is a browser-based RPG with probably the best concept ever. Your goal is to PWN forums wiping them from the face of the internet while gaining a reputation over the web and increasing your E-peen. How do you do this you ask? Easy! Try trolling, hacking, whining, flirting, and/or just being completely retarded. There's plenty of types of forums you can wreak havoc on and missions to accomplish. Several colorful characters you can meet via sTalk. (the in-game IM system) There's plenty of items to help with this goal too. Computers (including a graphing calculator xP), hardware, glasses, spiders, and all sorts of files. Then... there's junk. Selling junk online is the best way to make money. How do you get junk? Get famous! Your fans will send you all sorts of junk everyday. Yes, you get fans. Anyway, I'm rambling at this point...

It has a great interface and atmosphere that make you feel like you're actually just surfing the web and screwing with people. Also, there's systems set-up to where the community can create new items, forums, and such to be voted on whether they're included in the game. This, of course, means that stereotypes, word play, and memes can be found everywhere. Seriously, people. Try it. One thing to note though, this is not a game you can sit down and spend several hours playing everyday. You can only visit forums a certain amount of times per day which I think is great because it keeps me coming back everyday for more and has me unable to get addicted enough to lose anymore sleep.

So, what are you waiting for? Join in the fun. =)

(Just a note: If enough people start playing, I'll make a Klan for Omnimaga.)

You know, I never thought about using sub( for displaying maps before. Nice thought.
However, you're working a little too hard on displaying the string map. xP
Nevermind. ;P
