I am the greatest champion of BASIC but I do feel that it has its limitations.  For example,

the water is stationay. It doesn't move.  This could be fixed with C to run in real time.  Limitations like this are the reason why I was so reluctant to finish.  But then I got over it.  So I would like to ask a question:

When basic programmers use C (xlib, flib, or self made libs) is it a lie to say that your program is BASIC?

If you're talking about flib, I think it's still basic.  People who use xlib for 8x+ seem to think so.  But they categorize it as basic + xlib, as opposed to pure basic.

 Makes me want to redo my collision detection program to C so that it can run in real time.

Um, I think I just thought of a way to update the water in real time on the screen in BASIC at a decent speed

Thats right it was on comcast... as for a demo.  Soon I profise.  There is just one problem, and that is emulating HW3 AMS on VTI so I have to do double work to make it compatible....

interesting code piece if anyone cares:

//to figure out if you are runing a HW2 or HW3 (Titanium) in Basic

c1
-->
CODE
ec1if getConfg()[22]< 2000000: Text "Running a HW2"c2
ec2

//end of code
this also works on the emulator

Use this to emulate 89titanium and Voyage 200 with an AMS upgrade from TI.
