Title: Hey, what's up?
Post by: JWinslow23 on November 23, 2013, 08:41:03 pm

Hello!

I am an intermediate TI-BASIC programmer, hoping to learn Axe (I have the syntax guide at hand). You have probably seen my Cookie Clicker thread, my Shutdown game, and my recent Candy Wars game. I hope to learn more advanced techniques. I also have a small 500-byte Mastermind program (doesn't use Input, uses keypresses). Code coming soon!

Hi JWinslow23! Axe is awesome, although I can't program in BASIC or AXE!

Welcome JWinslow23! I definitely recommend Axe if you like games. It's similar to basic so it shouldn't be too hard for you.

Thanks for the peanuts?

I only have a Langton's Ant in Axe, but I am hoping to learn how to move sprites, and backgrounds.

Also, AssemblyBandit, I know now why you aren't named AxeBandit or BASICBandit.  :w00t:

Moving sprites in Axe is just like moving lines or shapes in basic: just draw it on a variable.

Example (-> is the sto arrow; also this can be optimized I just wrote it like this so it looks very similar to basic)

Code: [Select]

0->A
0->B
[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF]->Pic1
Repeat A = 88
ClrDraw
PtOn(A,B,Pic1)
A+1->A
B+1->B
DispGraph
Pause 50
End

Oh, good, give me more peanuts! It's not like I have anything better to do than to eat peanuts all day, and I don't have anything important to do, like actual programming!  <_<

Sorry, too many peanuts. Also, take a look at my Mastermind thread!
