I looked at your code, and I must admit that your way to access to string is not smaller, not faster, but really more comprehensible than mind ! x)
Unfortunately I notice you used commands that add a lot of bytes, eg. use one of rect() or rectI() but not both (-150 bytes), same thing with Pxl-Change and Pxl-Off.

Another things I didn't understand is why you removed CRAFT() argument ? Now how you plan to make the difference between INVENTORY, BENCHWORK, FURNACE, OVEN, ANVIL and CHEST lists ?

Actually, it is faster. In addition, I am using only the routines I have used in the other parts of the game, so in the long run I'm actually saving space.

Display boxes didn't slow scrolling of items. And if you add to each string a pointer, it mean you keep strings in program, I don't see how you calculate it give to you more space ?

Anyway, why removed CRAFT() argument ?

No idea what you mean in the first bit, but it's easy enough to generalize the menu. Specify a first argument for the title, then another argument for the list of pointers for the items. You'll have to modify the stuff, but it's easy enough to modify.

I know my english is bad, but here this question :

is same question than :

This question is asked separately than item list organisation.

Fortunately we have a common language, Axe

Code: [Select]

"STRING"=>pointer
.String is compiled in main executable.

But now, we can't get pointer with an appvars !

Code: [Select]

getCalc("appvSAVE",Y1)
.How to determinate string location ?

My idea was to get those pointer with NTH routine, and stored current list of item in L5 in this order :

Code: [Select]

.I temporary variable
{I*2+L5}
.Is the quantity of current (I) item
{I*2+L5+1}
.Is the pointer of item obtained with UNZIP and NTH routines

But you probably thought something else ?

I have been working on porting the map generation algorithm from the original game to axe, so I guess I should post here. >.>

Anyway, so far I have implemented enough of the algorithm to be able to generate island shapes, so I made a screenie of my progress so far.

Epic job! How did you go about porting it? Did you transfer the code directly, or first try to understand it and based on the knowledge build something similar?

That looks cool! O.o

I've been working a bit on my own terrain generator for Tinycraft. Here's the latest screenshot, using a new cellular automata generator that operates in 4n^2 time.

It still has some obvious flaws, but it's much better than the old version

Sorunome · « **Reply #234 on:** January 15, 2012, 05:45:48 am »

That is just far to awesome!

As for the last screenshot do you think you could make it so you move ? It might look less slow, as in the previous screenshots it seemed to go at a better speed.

I agree with this

Moreover, I think that it will become even slower with enemies and all, so moving by 2 pixels at once may be better

For Jacobly and Qwerty, remember that it is a community project, so you can share your codes

I mean that Qwerty's island is complete, with everything on it.
But Jacobly's island is on-calc.
So a mix between both would be awesome

I just tuned the movement to be about what it's like in the real game. Remember, you don't want it to go too fast <<

Wow I like how this is coming along! Nice work guys.

Nope, but we don't want it to be too slow either. It is not slow yet, but with all the things that will be added, it will become unplayable, and even worse on a regular 83+ without Full mode

(also, you seem to have a quote problem

)

Builderboy · « **Reply #239 on:** January 15, 2012, 02:38:54 pm »

It sounds to me like he turned down the speed, and could easily turn it back up when enemies get added
