I'm confused what is going on with the labels in this program, it seems you have 3 or more labels named _ ?  2 of which are both inside your menusete sub.

EDIT: Oh okay

yeah, I'm using SPASM, so I'm using it's relative labels feature. Any label _ is relative so to access it you just do

--_ : two prior
-_ : previous
+_ or _ : next
++_ : next after next

thepenguin77 found the bug for me, I had a djnz _ where I should have had a djnz -_ in menusete feeling a little stupid

Ok, so working on The Blue Platform, my menu routine stopped working, even though I hadn't touched it. what happens is that, when I go past the second menu item it just quits, but when I debug I can't seem to figure out why. So I'm going to the community for support, here is the program with a di \ halt right after a keypress, so to figure out how this happens, load it in an emulator, run it and press down, it will just do what I'm showing in the screenshot. Here is the code http://eeems.pastebin.com/bcaWfMt2

EDIT: ok, found where the error is happening, call menusete, when it is called for the second time after pressing down (to draw the new hand thing, first is to erase it) instead of calling the correct routine it just crashes out of the program, no idea why.menupickdraw:
push bc ;don't want to effect
push af ;all the registers
push hl ;so lets push them onto the stack
ld a,6 ;lets now set the correct x location
;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
call menusete ;and y <<---------HERE
;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ld b,8 ;and width
ld ix,menupicker ;and give it the right sprite
call putSprite8xb ;draw it now!
pop hl ;and now we restore
pop af ;all the registers
pop bc ;back to normal that we need
ret ;routine done!

Yeah it was kinda cool. I hope we can do a bit more, like using colors, larger resolution and maybe even change the monitor resolution so we can do full-screen games or something. It would be cool.

I totally disagree actually. I don't want colours nor full-screen, nor larger resolution, I would like it to be just like in the calculator. That picture looks a blast!

well if it had the option of both it would be nice, personally I wouldn't want to limit it's potential with just being like a calculator.

Graphmastur: Use windows for now :p
DJ: Its too bad that the stress got this bad, I wish I had done more to alleviate it. Hopefully we can handle the forum without you in an administrator position. Hope the vacation helps
Everyone: this is just a reminder, there is a report button, don't just use it for spam, if you see someone who is being rude, or anything against the rules, let us know. I know I don't read all the posts on the forum, so it will be very helpful

well, mine shouldn't be that slow, but I think it has something to do with christmas. I'm going to ask support what's up though

I'm not sure. I'd probably have to learn interrupts for that, because my menu routine is handled separately from building the rest of the screen, so it would be pretty hard to do.
