If you wanna reference a real var in Axe try this:
Code: [Select]
GetCalc("varX")->P
float{P-2}->Q
I believe that could be optimized to:
Code: [Select]
GetCalc("varX")
float{-2}->Q
but I could be wrong.

I don't exactly remember why, but you have to subtract 2 from the pointer before converting it to or from a float in order to reference it with Axe.

That's because Axe returns the pointer+2 to account for the size bytes present in most programs/appvars. However, because floats are always 9 bytes large, they don't have those extra 2 bytes.

Hmm that would be a nice game indeed. Darl181 had a jetpack style engine if I remember but there were no platforms and such.

I was unable to figure out how to transfer data between the basic part and the axe part.
I am also not familiar how to call usbdrv8x through asm.

I think since I have it working, even if it's slow, I will keep it the way it is.  Then I will fix it if i get everything else coded.
This is looking even more possible now that i am starting to feel better.
