Thank you for posting that.  I'm glad you are showing this, as it's very nice.

I think it might have been in the long lost Portal 2 thread.  But yeah, this has been really usefull in the past :)
I found it there a long time ago (before I was a member here) and started using it often.  If you look through the Escape code, you can find my first attempts of using this method.  I will be using it in the battle code for Elmgon.

Thanks for posting this!

Mmmm yeah good catch.  I fixed it.  I actually never had the problem keep happening after the for loop had finished, but it is a strange error/glitch and definitely should be avoided.

At least I won't need to create hundreds of subprograms!
DJ, you said that the glitch causes the calc to run at half speed, but are you talking about the method in the 1st post or just about memory leakage?

He's talking about If s (No Then) in For( loops without closing brackets on the For loop.

I wish XCOPY/Resource existed or that Flash Gordon was more reliable when I did Zelda, it would have maybe 45 subprograms at most instead of 200 x.x

Around that or maybe 210. That was because I had so extreme limited RAM that I had to split every small routine into their own program even if they were repeated only twice in the entire game. Same fashion as the TI-81 Illusiat


Zelda DLQ was just created 6 months too early

How is it possible to follow the code? I couldn't handle that code without quitting for sure...

well each routines are pretty small. The problem is that there are so many that it can become hard to remember what they were.


Note that I was very lucky with Zelda DLQ. When I finished it I found no bug in it afterward, so no need to debug or anything.

Yea, basically the beta tester team I hired prior release wouldn't even have to report anything. Not that anyone got able to play the game, though, thanks stupid TI for releasing a TI-Connect build supporting a different 8xg format
