Do you know yet how you'll handle raised terrain/hills? (Like

I don't think my engine is advanced enough to simulate raised terrain without a serious rewrite, and some serious slowdowns. I think the only raised terrain that will be supported is the different height of blocks. But once i release the source (one i clean it up a bit) you can feel free to add the feature yourself

Well, I don't know about raised terrain, but it does have full support for different height-ed tiles! Raised terrain would force the tilemapper to go sprite by sprite, since all the sprites in a row would not necessarily be on the same level anymore. This would mean instead of 2 tilemappers per row, it would be 24 sprites to display with the slowdown of BASIC now handling the loops and such. That would translate from 40 Tilemaps to 480 sprite displays. It would be unimaginaly slow
. It is possible, though, that there is a way to do this that I haven't thought of. I really don't code with libs that often. But I will be releasing the source, so feel free to add that functionality if you want!

*ztrumpet necros...*
So... I found this and am wondering if you will release it.
I had an idea on how to move behind tiles:
This involes three pics to one tile: 1. Main tile 2. Mask 3. Anti-Mask (All pxls changed from black to white and vics versa)
Draw the tiles in the way that you've done it. Then when you move in behind a tile 1:draw the anti-mask 2:draw your character 3:xor the anti-mask off 4:draw the tile in front of you. This might let you draw characters behind tiles.

Hmmm, I'm not sure what it is your trying to fix? The screenshot on page 4 shows that the cursor (easily replaceable with a character) is correctly occluded by tiles in front of it. It basically 'goes behind' the correct tiles.
As for a release, Perhaps i will spend this morning getting together all my files and releasing a beta version so all can see!

I can hardly wait to test this, even if it's only on an emulator

This is awesome! The only thing I would add is making sure you don't go off the screen in prgmAB, so it has an Err:Invalid Dim.
