hi, ive got a very mean problem, my RPG has no walls, doors or sprites, it is simply walking code, and a text( to show the charecter, when i get to line 25,18 the darn thing stops! my guy won't go any farther to the left, i can go farther if i put the charecter on the other side of the "wall".


ALSO there are some places where i will "jump" ahead and up 2 spaces, it cant be my code, i think, because there is no code to do that!


I am using the HORIZ command but the regular big screen does the wall thang too!


plz hizzelp /\/\3

It wouldn't hurt if you showed us your code anyways.

ok, back by popular demand..... SCOURCE CODE!


18->x
13->y
Horiz
Lbl A
getkey
text Y,X,"8"
TEXT(Y,X-1," ''
if ans = 26
X+1->X
if ans = 24
X-1->X
if ans = 25
Y-1-> Y
if ans = 34
Y+1->Y
Goto A


Thats it guys, i get a data error at the "wall" if i try to pass at the top of the screen and i tries alot of different letters and symbols for the charecter, none helped



Thx

TEXT(Y,X-1," ''

You could do If ANS:Then :TEXT(Y,X-1," ''):End, so that way it doesn't slow do the loop by clearing the 8 each time.

Quote:
Horiz

Why do you use this? (i know what it does but why do you slpit the screen?)

Quote:
if ans = 26
Then
X+1->X
End
if ans = 24
Then
X-1->X
End
if ans = 25
Then
Y-1-> Y
End
if ans = 34
Then
Y+1->Y
End


is faster

Quote:
Lbl A
[Code]
Goto A


If you do,
Quote:
For(X,1,2
0->X
[Your Code here]
End


(if you want to end the for, just set X to 2
Like:
Quote:
If Ans=21
Then
2->X
End


That would stop the prgm

Also i had that problem, with the jumping, and it not moving right, DON'T USE X AND Y, the calc. gets them confused sometimes and switches then, Use A and B, never X, Y, use them for loops or something else.

opps. i rewrote your code.

i had the wall prob with usin A and B too Razz

i use horiz for 2 reasons

1. it keeps the town size smaller so you can get to and fro faster
2. i think its alot better to write words on the home screen and keep the graph screen uncluttered, also i think it may be faster...


the TEXT(Y,X-1," " deletes the trail of the 8

as for the FOR( thing.... ??NANI??WHAT??HUH??

If I were you I would do this instead.

18->A
13->B
Horiz
Repeat K (does not equal) 45
Getkey->K
Text(B,A,"8"
Text(B,A-1," ''
A+(K=26)->A
A-(K=24)->A
B+(K=34)->B
B-(K=25)->B
End
Stop

Boolean logic is faster and much more optimized than your version.
If you press clear it will exit the program.

Also you will need to add code to erase above the text when you are moving down or it will leave a trail.

Also it is true you should never use the x and y vars. The reason being that any time that something is done with the graphscreen they are changed.

Instead of that, you could do this:
A+(K=26)-(K=24)->A
B+(K=34)-(K=25)->B

i don't think you need the parenthesis's (yah right Very Happy ) after the 24 or 25 either

Repeat K=45
getKey->K
If K:Text(B,A," " //4 spaces, could improve the if to "If:Then:Text(B,A," ":End" to gain some speed
A+(K=26)-(K=24->A
B+(K=34)-(K=25->A
Text(B,A,"X //draw character

ok, ive got more woes, i have been working on that game again and thought i would optimize Laughing but it turned out horrible, the darn char won't move at all!

this is the code


Code:
Lbl A
RecallPic 1
Text(A,B,"8"
Text(A,B-1," "
B+(K=26)-(K=24)üB

Text(A+6,B,"   "
If K=21
Then
ClrHome
Menu("Pause ","Resume",RE,"Save and quit",SQ
Lbl RE
If Z=1
Goto A
If Z=2
Goto B
If Z=3
Goto C
End

If Z=1
Then
B+(K=26)-(K=24)üB
A+(K=34)-(K=25)üA
If A=10 and B<37

If Aù16 and B=37
38üB
If B=40
Goto 2üZ
If A=11 and B=9
Goto W1
If A=11 and B=26
Goto TA
Goto A
End

If Z=2
Then
