Thanks. I'll go with the first one then. I'll upload the newest version in the first post when I get something significant accomplished. I have a lot of reading to do the next few days, and school starts after that, but my Java teacher won't care if I work on this instead.

A quick graphics question: Which one of these looks more like a key? This is meant to replace the Greek characters. (Thanks to Builderboy for his Java program.)  These are the two best ones I could find.

Thanks. I haven't thought too much about the battle engine yet. I wanted to make sure everything worked and looked good first.

An even better one to top the Top Secret Folder trick.
Make a screenshot of the desktop, make it the desktop background, then uncheck "Show Desktop Icons"
Every single icon looks like its there, but you can't do anything to them.

I'm modifying this to reflect what's really going on.  This a pure BASIC RPG. It is a work in progress, and the .zip file is just the skeleton of the game. The game is intended to be a quality BASIC game with decent graphics, so speed might be a little slow, but that sacrifice means cool animations, graphics, etc. Here are the features currently implemented: -All maps, character movement, etc. -Saving (at any location.) -Information boxes that drop down. -ability to pick up keys and gun. -Character appearance change when gun is picked up. -Title Screen Working on: -Battle System Screenshots:  The key puzzle  Title Screen

Thanks, I'll have to try that.
Does anyone know how the maps are stored/displayed in Metroid Pi? As I recall, there were quite a few rooms in that game, and the display was decently fast.

I just experienced the severe slowdown in drawing the map when you get to room 15 (R=14).
I wonder if it would be faster if I had two strings (one for each layer)?
Also, thanks for the info, Hot Dog.

It is on the graph screen (and dual layers too).
Everything is in one string, but the display routine isn't that difficult.
For(J,0,7
Text(-1,8J,0,sub(Str1,16J+1+256R,16
StorePic 6
Text(-1,8J,0,sub(Str1,16J+256R+129,16
RecallPic6
End
StorePic 6
R is the room number, where the first room is room 0.

It should work for what I'm doing. It's not really a lot to rearrange, either. Thanks. Now I'm off to write more code.

I can upload the program if you like, but here is an outline of the code:
ClrDraw
If not(L
Then
If not(M
Then
mapdata->Str1
mapdata->Str2
End
If M=1
Then
.
.
.
End
End
display code
The problem isn't with the display code, that part runs plenty fast.
When I run the program, it takes a second or two to begin displaying the map.
Is there a way to speed this up? It doesn't matter which room I choose, it still displays slow.
I have 15 rooms (so 30 8x16 strings).

lol, I had an incident once with my age, so I'm not going to give my real age anymore.
but for anyone who hasn't noticed: my "birth year" is 1337. 
oh, and thaks for the hppy birthdays!
That might be the best year to be born. Of course, any year >9000 will be pretty cool, too. I wouldn't want to meet someone born in 666.  Oh, yes, happy birthday!
