Yup, indeed, tonight I start the coding run.

This afternoon, I'll have to lend a hand at my little brother's birthday party... Don't really like that, but someone has to volunteer to run around the house with a bunch of 10-year olds. :P
There's no fencing training tonight (last friday before Easter), so nothing impedes the Sacred activity of Coding. :P

OK, update, people:

Last night I modified my code so that it could be used in an app, I really needed the space. Next, having plenty of room :P, I made a splash screen. (it kinda sucks, but yeah...), and I started working on the 'look' routine.

I don't think the original rogue had 'look', but I've seen it in several roguelike games, so I decided to implement it. The command allows you to look at visible objects on the screen, without having to waste a turn, some hitpoints, etc. etc.

I'll post a screenie as soon as I finish the looking routine.

Nice, I like APPs because they won't take any RAM when not used and  won't spam you with garbage collections when exiting like Ion games. The only issue is the lack of SMC support but that's why there are Appvars ^^

Can't wait for screenie ^^

If finished this will sure be a ticalc news, considering Rogue is pretty popular on 68k calcs

Ticalc news is equivalent with feature, and feature requires awesomeness. I don't think I can do that, but let's give it a try.

Well, since Rogue for 68k was featured, I don't see why the z80 counterpart wouldn't be. It would be kinda unfair IMHO

Oooo, Apps are nice!  I'm starting to like that a lot of game programmers are switching their games over to apps, it's really quite nice.

Yeah I like it. The only bad thing is that with 80 apps the menu is incredibly slow and there are always people asking why the game won't show up in PRGM menu but that doesn't hinder the awesomeness that is apps. I think back in the days people didn't use them because they were not documented well and even for hardcore ASM coders, they were hard to program for.

Except that for BBUilder, it is not really reliable for large BASIC games. Try converting Reuben Quest 2 or Zelda: Dark Link Quest to Basic Builder. Good luck

What was the matter with them in the first place?
Does BasicBuilder have a size limit or something?
