I figured it out, and I also figured out how to detect the way it is, I'll post my code in a bit.
Code: [Select]
:For(A,1,8)
:Text(‾1,8A-8,0,sub(Str1,15A-14,15
:StorePic 2
:Text(‾1,8A-8,0,sub(Str2,15A-14,15
:RecallPic 2
:End
:2→B:3→A
:DelVar J
:While 1
:A→C
:B→D
:Text(‾1,8A-8,6B-6,"Ω
:DelVar K
:getKey→K
:If K:Then
:B+(K=26)-(K=24→B
:If B≠D
:Then
:If ""=sub(Str1,15A-14+B-1,1
:D→B
:End
:End
:If ""≠sub(Str1,15(A+1)-14+B-1,1
:Then
:A+1→A
:If J:A-1→A
:Else
:J+L1(1)(K=21→J
:End
:If J:Then
:A-1→A
:J-1→J
:End
:If A≠C or B≠D
:Then
:Text(‾1,8A-8,6B-6,"Ω
:Text(‾1,8C-8,6D-6,"
:End:End
it runs pretty quickly on the 83+. this version also includes spikes and stuff.

@simplethinker, isn't inString( slow, though? I remember testing it and it wasn't too fast from what I remember, compared to what i am doing atm
That's a good point.  From my tests inString( is taking 25% more time than using =.

This is why I eventually opted for limited walking area tiles in Illusiat. Not that I really need that much, anyway, though. For event triggers tiles, I can simply make an animation of the character walking on the tile if it's a switch, anyway

unless of course you are trying for a very large string right?

This doesn't matter. I only have two walk-on-able character to check in Illusiat (" " and "=", the latet being stairs) and when I hit a wall it's only when the event tiles are checked for, to speed up walking around

I use inString( for what I'm doing, and it's decently fast, and if you had a lot of tiles that could be walked on, then it would be even more efficient, although I guess it's not really efficient when you only have 1 tile you can walk on...hmm I might need to change my code now.

I don't use Instring( yet because I am only testing for one right now, but I may add more ones later.

I wonder which one of ours is faster right now? (I'm using a TI-83+ ROM)
oh yeah, those "..." tiles are monkey bars which my character is climbing across

yours is probably faster now because I have a bunch of other stuff going on at the same time (well not a 'bunch', but you know what I mean).

Heh seeing your ss makes me want to finish this...time to get back to map designing..bleh

whoa just saw this. I'll post my code for you in a sec.

Code: [Select]
While Q>0 // Q=Health

G-(G>0->G  // This is my 'if you jumped' variable
H+not(G->H  // This is my gravity variable.

If E=1 // If there's an enemy in the room
Then
prgmZ4
End

If not(G) and not(fPart(H/2)) and not(inString(Str0,sub(Str2,T+14,1  // more gravity stuff
Then
Text(-1,8D-16,6C-12,"
T+14->T // Location in string
D+1->D // Player (Y) variable
If D>9 // If you go below the map
Then
M+1->M
2->D
14+C->T
prgmZ1
End
Text(->1,8D-16,6C-12,"Ê
End

getKey->K

If K=25 // if you jump
Then
If (inString(Str0,sub(Str2,T+14,1 // makes sure you're on a tile and not in the air
Then
4+2(1=L(1->G // Sets your jump to '4' or '6'
End
End

If G>0 and not(fPart(G/2)) and not(inString(Str0,sub(Str2,T-14,1 // if your 'jump' is still activated and nothing is above you
Then
Text(-1,8D-16,6C-12,"
D-1->D
T-14->T
If D<2  // if you went above the map
Then
9->D
M-1->M
14D-14+C->T
prgmZ1
End
Text(-1,8D-16,6C-12,"Ê
End

If (D=I and C=J) or sub(Str2,T,1)!=" " // if you hit an enemy or walked onto something
Then
prgmZ3
End

If (K=24 or K=26) and not(inString(Str0,sub(Str2,T-(K=24)+(K=26),1 // if left or right was pressed AND nothing is in the way
Then
Text(-1,8D-16,6C-12,"
C-(K=24)+(K=26->C
T-(K=24)+(K=26->T
If C<2 or C>13 // If you went outside the map
Then
L+(C>13)-(C<2->L
13(C<2)+2(C>13->C
14D-14+CüT
prgmZ1
End
Text(-1,8D-16,6C-12,"Ê
If (D=I and C=J) or sub(Str2,T,1)!=" "
Then
prgmZ3
End
End

If max(K={24,25,26  // Just here to fix a bug that I had found, you don't need to worry about it
Then
If "x"=sub(Str2,T-(K=26)+(K=24)+14(K=25),1
Then
Text(ú1,8(D+(K=25))-16,6(C+(K=24)-(K=26))-12,"!
StorePic 1
Text(ú1,8(D+(K=25))-16,6(C+(K=24)-(K=26))-12,"x
RecallPic 1
End
End

End
The 'not(fPart(H/2' and 'not(fPart(G/2' are both put in to slow down the game.. essentially they're only run when those variables are even, which happens every OTHER time the loop is run.

thanks, I'll take a look, and maybe I'll find some optimizations :P
I haven't added in moving enemies, but I still haven't optimized my code, so mine is slower then it could be.

yeah I saw a bunch of things you could make faster. I have one question about your code though, why are you using C and D as well as A and B for your characters location?

A and B are the current location, C and D are the ones I'm using for saving my location in case I need to revert it back

Why not just keep C and D as your location, since you use A for displaying the map? Would save quite a few bytes.

Hmm I would recommend not using list's for variables that are going to change a lot. Lists are pretty slow and can really slow down your game. Just use a variable for it.
