wow I got lot of reading this morning (compared to maxcoderz forum)
I like strings a lot for ASCII games because you can have the scrolling using wordwrap I mentionned a month ago if I remember but I prefer matrices for tilemaps (graphical) because it allow us for instant map loading using ASM libs and they are easier to modify. With strings you have to take the first part of the string, combine it with the new character and combine it with the rest of the string to change a character. Using ASM libs isnt really a good idea for people who just want to show how powerful BASIC can be tho because its not pure BASIC.

Well, we try to keep you busy. :)

Kevin- I remember you talking about that before. On the 89, only text can be outputed so scrolling would have to use another method. There is the recycling method. Which alows you to scroll up and left...but not down or right....but in c maybe...

I should try to make a racing tunnel in ASCII in ETP studio :)
