(Almost a necropost (but not quite)):
I present a new feature: saving and replaying! Inspired by overly inquisitive teachers, I created a feature which automatically saves your game when you quit (either by pausing and pressing 'Quit' or by pressing [CLEAR]) Even if you muck around with the extras or the difficulty levels, it should automatically set them back to your previous game. Note that the game is not saved if you simply return to menu.
Also note that saving creates about a 760 byte appvar - I didn't want to mess around with compression (although I probably should have).
Also, while working on this appvar, I uncovered a whole nest of appvar ickiness that had been hiding in my program from nearly day one. Now, playing the game for the first time should no longer return RAM clearing parabolic variable things.

I admire you for openly apologizing instead of continuing your actions (although they really did not affect me to much of a degree).

Yeah, you're probably right. Edit: EDIT: shouldn't this be in site feedback and questions?
Maybe? Idk, this just popped into my head randomly so I felt that it should go under the random subforum.

I just had a random idea - you know how posts have a thumbs up or a thumbs down? What if there was a button that lets you 'question mark' a post? That way, people can see which posts are confusing or need clarification. Maybe it would be almost like the thumbs down button, except less extreme?
Just a random thought.

I don't know about questions 1 and 2, but I think that to break out of loops you could just set A to a number higher then 10. So... For(A,0,10) Misc. Code If A=6 or other conditions 11->A End End

Hi! Like this:
.TEST "appvMY1STAPP"->Str1 The 'appv' at the front can be found by pressing [2ND] then 8. Your appvar has to be a maximum of 8 characters long, and can include lowercase and numbers (I think?)
!If GetCalc(Str1) This '!If' statement checks to see if your appvar already exists - if it doesn't, then GetCalc(Str1) will return 0. GetCalc(Str1,16)->Z This creates an appvar with a length of 16. Note: if the appvar already exists, it'll delete it and replace it with the new one. Variable 'Z' is now a pointer to your appvar. End
1->{Z} This stores 1 to the first byte of your appvar. Think of it as {Z+0}. A sixteen byte appvar will run from 0 to 15 (16 numbers total) 999->{Z+14}r This stores 999 to the last two bytes of your appvar - bytes 14 and 15.
I hope this helps!
Edit: Modified for clarity

Ah - okay. Won't do that.
Also, problem fixed, so no need to respond. That's what I get for succumbing and posting prematurely...

Help? I've been trying to run this:But whenever the appvars I want to make don't exist, the code creates the appvar, and fills it with the data it needs to, but does a bug: it's the one where it creates a large parabolic variable, and if you try to delete it or do parabolic graphic, you get a RAM crash.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
I really don't know what's wrong.Edit: nvm - I asked for help prematurely. Problem solved.

What! ... Great - my knowledge is slowly becoming obsolete... I feel old...

I.. think this has been settled by now o_O hence its been like 15 days since the post.
Really? Crap. That's what I get for not looking at the dates.

well ive posted it to ticalc.org but im not sure it is the right decision. i was actually thinking about putting this into an RPG, i could work with superbany. EDIT: Wait a minute... Snake X said that... (I just realised...) Hmm.......maybe i should quickly remove it. SnakeX looks too eager to my liking...
too bad, i felt like i made a sense of achievement when i posted but when i look at SnakeX's post (no offence) i feel uncomfortable. the Hold 'em poker is ok to be on ticalc.org but health bars? no one's ever done it before...
ah ha i have a solution... i can post it somewhere more privately... [hint: globe icon]
well ive uploaded to a place far away from here... good luck finding it and opening it properly!!!! [check hint for help] so yeah if you do find it just say you did ONLY. BUT don't expose the contents or reveal location to this topic or forum. Let others find it for themselves
Just a friendly tip, you sound kinda obnoxious when you get all protective like that. I understand perfectly that you might want to keep the code secret for now, and you think it's awesome, but that's no reason to go around being so pretentious about it. Just, you know, relax. The TI community is pretty good about self-monitoring - thieves tend not to flourish, so no need to worry so much...

That looks fantastic!

Cool! Are you going to make your own levels, or are you going to port the original ones over? Or both?

DJ: I applaud your dedication to politeness and to maintaining a positive atmosphere here on omnimaga.org and elsewhere in the calculator community.

Just a random question: What kind of system do you guys use for version numbers in your programs? Is there a method, or do people just make up random numbers?
Same thing with the progress bars/percents I see in a lot of signatures. What does it mean for a game to be "43% done", for example? Can't you only give an approximate number at best? idk, it feels kind of arbitrary to me.
(After re-reading, this feels kind of rant-y. I hope I'm not ranting - that would be a bit rude)
