At least I do! So has there been any changes yet?

wat u can do is create a textdecoder like mine or spellshapers. in the string, when u want to go to the next line, just have a token like "-" represent it. and yeah, i think grayscale text is impracticle with BASIC, just too much work   |
Shame! Don't declare the possible impossible! I think a routine could be added in xlib though which reads a string and does the placing on some pics which you would have recall.

@dragon_lance: Well I could have gone more, but I think it's more of a learning experiance to do it yourself (not you but g28401). And Thanks!
@g28401: There are several ways you could reduce the number of programs which you have. Also user input is rather easier using the getkey function where they could press 1/2 instead of doing 1 and then enter. Well making that way would increase program size by a lot. Unless you would like to have a sub routine to call each time you request user input.

I just went through and made a few optimizations that saved 169 bytes. So one thing you may want to do like kevin said, pick one way of getting user input.

In res I use the tilemap once every level and it just updates, I can't see how it would make my game slow

Is it .601b? If so I tested the update lcd screen deal and it seems if you don't do "don't update lcd" option then you will not need the extra argument (you just need it if you wish not to update the lcd). I have asked tr1p. about this and he said something about how I shouldn't depend on not useing the extra argument as it may not always work (something like that...go ask him ).

So it doesn't need the extra argument for the current version. I don't use the don't update lcd option for tile mapping, but with sprites I do and I don't add the extra arugment there.

Actually that's right, nvm. When I first tried the version with the 16x16 tilemapper, it didn't work right, and I thought that was because I didn't include the extra argument, but even when i did it still didn't work right. Turned out I forgot about pic0 now being 10, but after remedying that I kept thinking the tilemap routine needed the extra argument. |

You don't have to program in order to play a game! (though it may be usefull to have a 68k for playing the game :dang:

I will relook the code, but you have many subprograms and a few things could be done differentlly.
