Is the old computer still around or did he recycle it or something?

Imma just leave this here.
I'm not sure if I should release it just yet, b/c I plan (actually, I'm working on) putting the explosion effect into DS.

Anyway, this game is called Recon.
The object is to cover, or "chart", the most area possible.  Unfortunately the player can only travel on the light-colored "plains" and not the dark-colored...um..."hills."
Fortunately you somehow lug around an infinite supply of explosives (Nethams?...idk) with you...which in turn can blow up the hills and make them plains.  Isn't that handy.



One can see how some people would play the game...

...but as you can see running around like that gives you a high score something like -1000 in the end.  Maybe one could aim for -1337

So yeah, expect some effects like that and a game like this released around the end of the contest
(btw I coded the majority of this engine in one night, still working hard on DS most of the time )

Also, I'm not sure If I'm going to continue Tio, I might stay with DS which seems a lot more promising..and is pretty much Tio with realistic gravity and on steroids anyway...

2nd to make thing go boom, Alpha align to grid so 2nd works,  Mode to finish, Clear to quit

Hmm, maybe that can be done with a for loop, how many levels are planned?

0→C
10→Y .or whatever y-coordinate you want the top menu item to be at
"appvBLUTCH0"→Str1
For(A,1,3) .counting from 1 to 3 b/c there's 3 chapters
A+48→{Str1+8} .or 7, whichever the number is
.+48 because token value of 0 is 48, other numbers follow (1 is 49, etc), string is made of tokens
If Getcalc(Str1) .I think that'll work
Text(256*8,Y) .ask if you need but this defines coordinates, Y being Y and 8 for X...more optimized to pre-compute 8*256 btw this is just for simplicity
Text "Chapter ",A►Dec
.above 2 lines are the same as Text(Y,8,"Chapter ",A►Dec)
Y+8→Y .or whatever the gap from one option to another is
C++
End
End

This is assuming the fix and such is set.  After this C is the # of chapters, and you can do the other stuff accordingly.

Have you tried simply using a string (as in storing to Str#)?  That might have to do with it...and as said before you can edit strings.

EDIT
Copy looks for a pointer.
Copy("appvBLUTCH1",L1,9)
"appvBLUTCH1" isn't exactly a pointer, it's data methinks

Try "appvBLUTCH1"→L1 ?

:headdesk:
Hm since I'm using both buffers and the program is getting rather large as it is (~11k) I'll use an appvar or something rather than Zeros() .  w00t.
Actually I already have two extra buffers for the flipping thing...imma use that and save a few bytes

Ok, this is doable now.  I'll probably just use vertical +/- since I'm using RecallPic when needed anyway.
[/train of thought]

You can use L_# tokens as var names?
(you can type a theta with alt+233 Θ btw )

Anyway idk but that might be causing the RAM clear

You can modify a string just like you're modifying L1.  I got that to work in Tio anyway..

EDIT: what might be causing the crash is that strings are zero-terminated (there has to be [00] at the end) and without that, whatever random junk is after the intended stuff at L1 is counted as part of the string until it reaches [00]--it probably tried to make a var with a >8-byte name...I'd just use a string, much safer

EDIT2: ok so the 0 is in there...idk

EDIT3: it's not in there unless r1=0.  you might want to put it in there after that

EDIT4: the "" make a string, which should do the stuff on its own. oops

And now he's a normal member...

Go through the basics I guess.  Is the calc on?  Is it plugged in?  Are the batteries fresh?  Did a window pop up on the computer asking to install it (and is it installed)?
(do the Nspires have a link mode, or is that only casios?)
