Continuing the slightly offtopic discussion, yeah, I'm using that method as well. It's actually just a very short asm() command, (4 bytes, I think?) that takes the pointer to the program's name. You can just copy the program from an appvar in archive to a temp program in RAM and run it. I'm using that for small-ish things like my stat screen and the name-input screen for Ash.

Woooh, pseudo-update

Most battle transitions are done, along with the stuff I wrote at the top of this page
There are 9 different battle transitions (shown in screenie here)


Title screen and stuff are all done, and next up is working out enemy generation (currently is showing a garbage enemy; that's why the sprite is all corrupted). Map engine has been improved tremendously, although I still have to fix some of the tiles :P

Stat generation, while broken in the screenie, works now thanks to Runer's help :)

It's not a bug. There are 65536 bytes in RAM, which can all be accessed with a 16-bit pointer, but there are twice as many nibbles. Because of this, you cannot access every nibble in RAM with a 16-bit argument, so it is split into two commands. nib{} will return a nibble from ᴇ8000-ᴇFFFF, and nib{}ʳ will return a nibble from ᴇ0000-ᴇ7FFF.

Now I feel stupid :P

Thanks Runer! :)

I have a (fairly large) bug report:

Try this code compiled to no-shell:
Code: [Select]
([01234567])*2→A
For(E,0,7)
Text(E*10,0,nib{A+E}>Dec)
End

It will do what it's supposed to, which is display 01234567 in a row.

Now try compiling it to an app.
It'll display some numbers that are *not* 01234567 :(

I'll change the factor from 16 to 12 for now; but hey, this is what the demo'll be for: feedback on bugs/balance issues ;)

I actually have an update I want to post too, but I'm really busy tonight so maybe tomorrow :)

Hmmm...for an enemy of even skill...does ~24 battles seem like too much? (that's the way it is set up right now, but it could change later :P)

And I think one month is sufficient to finish up the engine: then I can use you guys as beta testers/bug finders ;)

Augh, the dreaded max symbol error :(

Is using the (semi) new inline data feature a valid way to reduce the symbol count?
Code: [Select]
Text(0,,"Hi") instead of
Code: [Select]
"Hi"->Str1:Text(0,,Str1)

I hear RPGs in asm are fairly difficult (text, page swapping, etc.)...good luck :)

btw I like your grass tiles ;)

I don't really have anything screenie-worthy atm :P

I'm setting a demo release date: Jan 1 2011. At the very least it will have the first couple areas of the full game, and the engine should be fully complete by then :)

Axe or asm?

Zelda/Verdante Forest style scrolling or Pokemon/E:Sor/A:P style scrolling?

I'll try to use the equal increase method then, since that way when you level up I can show by how much every stat increases (which will be important later ;D) and I'll try to make up the extra space with moar optimizations :P

edit: although I see the poll shows an overwhelming majority for heal on level up...

Defrag=garbage collect except for App pages. Same process, different area of memory. Occurs automatically whenever you delete an app
