If you take out the other things that you mentioned, then you would have to rewrite stuff to make it for a set sprite size. At which point you would lose the size decrease you talked about.
I still don't get it :\
But I made it as small as I could make it.

BASIC Code wrote:
:D→U
:For(I,0,length(Str0)-1
:inString("123456789ABCDEF",sub(Str0,I+1,1
:If Ans>7
:Pxl-On(J,D
:If 3<8fPart(Ans/8
:Pxl-On(J,D+1
:If 1<4fPart(Ans/4
:Pxl-On(J,D+2
:If fPart(Ans/2
:Pxl-On(J,D+3
:D+4→D
:If D≥U+Z
:Then
:U→D
:J+1→J
:End
:End

I once tried to make a base 256 sprite encoder/decoder by using a rather clever technique I thought of by using 1-byte tokens as characters. Unfortunately I ran out of tokens at somewhere around 250. But you could do base 128 and get 7x7 sprites encoded into 7 bytes. Meh.

Yup, that's a common attempt, but the encoding constraints prevent it from working out. You could always use 2-byte tokens for the final 6, no?



I could use two bytes, but I hate imperfection and would rather just not do it. Razz
lol I posted in the wrong topic Very Happy



I'll make you a sprite for it XD
