Are you still converting maps? Unfortunately, I doubt I'll be able to help on that project, though, too much happened and is happening

no I'm using bin strings, so yeah...I'll have to convert my main editor (which converts it from a matrix to a binstring after I'm done) so that it can edit bin strings....

Question... What is bin strings?


Spoiler For funny life mathematics:
1. ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
2. OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
3. SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.
4. GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
5. HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
6. LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.
7. PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)
*Girls=Evil credit goes to Compynerd255*

it's kind of like compressed hex, instead of "00" you have "?" and so on...
so yeah, it's much smaller then matrixes....
and yes I'm still converting, but I don't have that much to go...though I'm going to finish and test my events before finishing (all I have left is around half of world 2 and what I've made of world 3)
and map convertion isn't that bad actually, all I have to do is change some tiles. what takes time is converting back and forth...which reminds me....the Celtic III matrix to string command doesn't work....

Hmmm, since that is 256 different types of tokens, are they all 1 byte?  I guess they have to be, because some of the 1 byte characters cant be put into strings, like " and ->

well yes they are all one byte, and I cheat to get them into strings, I just read a line from an appvar to get them...so yeah, the string is stored in an appvar on a line, and then I read it using the lineread function, and then it's in a string! :P so no "string->Str1 for me, it's more of a det(5,"rowswap(ZE"+det(1,W),L3(1)+3L3(2)-3->Str1
:P
so yeah, that's about it

mmmm, i see.  And i'm guessing you store to the appvar in the same manner :)  I'de imagine you would get some interesting results if you tried to view that string :D
