* epic7 wishes he knew what that meant (@builderboy)

In zedd, do you store sprite stuff to Str0SP? And how would I add that with AddZ and then display it?

@nick I think that's exactly what I did. I posted my code in a topic n the axe forum.i

Builderboy · « **Reply #16 on:** November 25, 2011, 04:46:10 pm »

Basically the same thing Nick said

keep doing pixel tests at a 45 degree angle moving away from the player until you find a wall. And yes sprite information is stored in Str0SP.

To add an object into the game, simply execute AddZ(X,Y,Width,Height,Mass,Sprite #) where your sprite number is the sprite found in Str0SP. 0 would refer to the first sprite in Str0SP, 1 would refer to the second and so on. To display and simulate everything, simple run SimZ(), which will run the simulation for 1 frame, and draw all of your objects onto the screen.

Is this all said in the readme?

Builderboy · « **Reply #18 on:** November 25, 2011, 04:51:11 pm »

Indeed, the documentation is quite extensive. There is also a list of functions that Zedd provides in Functions.txt

And Zedd won't send to my calc

Builderboy · « **Reply #20 on:** November 25, 2011, 04:53:49 pm »

What kind of errors does it give you? It's just a basic source program, so it shouldn't have anything special qualities to it

aeTIos · « **Reply #21 on:** November 25, 2011, 04:56:14 pm »

The sending thing just freezes. (I use TiLP, might try *cough* TI-Connect *cough*)

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #22 on:** November 25, 2011, 04:57:45 pm »

This looks pretty great. Will you release the source of the grappling hook routine when finished because maybe someone could eventually use it if he ever makes a Metroid game with the grappling hook item.

With a varied ground, I'll probably use more pxl-tests rather then checking the y coordinates

Builderboy · « **Reply #24 on:** November 25, 2011, 05:12:49 pm »

Oh whoops, rename CallZ to CLZ instead, seems I was mixing syntax

Bwt, what is the callback function for? It looks like it accelerates you left if you are on the right side of the screen, and right if you are on the left side of the screen?

epic7 · « **Reply #25 on:** November 25, 2011, 05:13:58 pm »

Its a test program. I figured you'd know since it was the example you put in the readme

Problem list:
1. GDB error- fixed
2. GDB error- fixed
3. Sprite error- fixed
4. AddZ error- fixed
5. CLZ error- fixed
6. GDB error- Unfixed- Goes to GDB0WD

Builderboy · « **Reply #26 on:** November 25, 2011, 05:16:44 pm »

Ahhh I see, I thought that was your actual code

Yeah it looks like the documentation goes both ways on the Callback function, just remember to name it CLZ() instead of CallZ()

epic7 · « **Reply #27 on:** November 25, 2011, 05:42:01 pm »

See anything else wrong?
Now axe takes me to where it mentions GDB0WD

Builderboy · « **Reply #28 on:** November 25, 2011, 05:59:08 pm »

Oh i believe you need to define GDB0WD as the width of your tilemap in sprites

epic7 · « **Reply #29 on:** November 25, 2011, 05:59:57 pm »

I'm not using a tilemap in that program

I put 96 in that and then put 1 in gdb0tm since I didnt know what to put. Now, I get no errors but the spe doesn't move.
