Title: Im back!
Post by: Roboman on August 29, 2013, 12:47:36 pm
Well, if any of you remember when I was having issues with my Ti 83P-SE link port... I seem to have damaged it trying to make it produce sound...  I cannot transfer files to or from my calculator :'(.  I just quit when that happened.  With school getting out for the summer, I had little reason to use my calculator instead of my desktop. But school is back (I'm a SENIOR  8)), and I use my calculator daily again.  I still cannot transfer files, but I can manually type axe/basic programs into my calculator and WabbitEmu  :-\.

Anyways...  I am working on an axe project.  I want it to speed up the longer the game goes on.  I am doing this by making the game run fairly fast, then just adding "pause B" in the loop.  B starts at 250 and everytime a point is earned I subtract one from B.  The way it is set up, though, has it where every so often you either earn a point or lose... so the longer the game goes on the smaller B gets and the faster you get points, making B get smaller exponentially.  I need an effective way to make B get smaller more or less linearly over time.  Any ideas?

Welcome back :D.

Also I doubt the link port can be damaged just by playing sound, but by constantly plugging in/out the headphones or link cable it can wear it out very fast (I had this happen with my older 83+)

Exactly.  I did not know it was so frail, so I was pressing the adapter into it, and holding it at many angles trying to get the poor adapter to get some sound. :(
