Here's a simple picture editor I made.  Pictures are stored in Str1, Str2, and Str3.

Just wondering... why store pictures in strings and not pictutres?

[imPersonator]

The pictures are stored in the external variables so that you can do Rcl Str1 or whatever.

I assume this is meant for pics used in Axe programs, right? Are they in hex format? I am not too sure about the use of this program. Could you provide an example?

it's an 8x8 sprite editor. you can save and load up to 3 monochrome sprites, it seems.

[imPersonator]

It is similar to the HEXPIC program that is in the Axe zip file.

Aaaah cool

Got bored so i made something similar to astbelt. The box in the corner tells you if you have use of your ability. if theres a X then you don'i if there is a check then you do have use. You can also press mode to invert the screen without a significant speed decrease.

I would like a sprite to replace the spike to make it seem more "in space"

Do you mean like the old arcade game Asteroids or more like side scrolling? I'll probably give this a try tomorrow

No i mean like the program attached to this post

[DJ Omnimaga]

Aaah ok I never tried that one, I'll give it a try too I guess. I wonder if that guy posted on old forums back in the days...

Can somebody help me optimize this? I'm not familiar with Axe optimization tricks.

Also, how do you save to files? I'm trying to implement high scores.

EDIT: Thanks, Mr. Omnimaga. It works better now... You still can't skirt the sides, though, due to the way the program detects collision.

I do not have much time right now but I noticed something in your game: You die about 2 pixels before your car touches the border. You might want to fix that in the next version.

Nice to see you still around by the way

if you want to save your high score to an external variable simply use this:
:.A
:"vHighScre"->Str1 //that v is the little v that can be accessed via 2nd 8, i believe. the name following it can be whatever as long as it's only =<8 characters long
:GetCalc(Str1)->θEnd
:!If θ
:Unarchive Str1
:Getcalc(Str1)->θEnd
:!If θ
:GetCalc(Str1,2)->θEnd
program code here...
:If [score var>{θ}^r
:[score variable]->{θ}^rEnd
:Archive Str1

this will check to see if the appvar HighScre exists in archive or RAM and return a pointer for reading and writing to it and then stores your high score and archives the var at the end of the prog.

What am I doing wrong here?
