The pure awesomeness is here. I love how all this is progressing.
Finally, the first RTS for the calc!

Good job, and keep up the good work, the whole S.A.D. crew!

A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)

-Will game options be changeable both in game and between games? I didn't like how in SC you had to play a game to change them. In some other games, I didn't like not being able to change options in game either.

That depends on what options we have.

Quote
-Will we be able to adjust scrolling/cursor speed and turn ON/OFF quick key repeat? (when holding down an arrow key, cursor moves, then wait half a second, then moves continuously instead of starting moving continuously immediately.) Some people may prefer slower movement so it's easier to select stuff, but some other people may prefer faster movement if they become good enough.

You will be able to adjust the speed at which the map scrolls, but the cursor speed will be fixed and without quick key repeat.  This is because the cursor moves at 16 pixel intervals rather than one pixel at a time.

Quote
-Where did ProphetsDementia go?

Your guess is as good as mine.  But I won't be worried unless I don't hear from him in, say, 2 weeks from now

-Are hotkeys still planned?


Absolutely!

OOoh I see about the cursor. I guess that should be fine then. Can it move diagonally?

Maybe you could PM Prophets in case he might have forgot?

And glad hotkeys  are still planned ^^

Will you be able to point where to build the buildings? or will it always be upper left corner?

You'll definitely be able to point where the buildings are placed.  That, and the cursor, are the next part I'm programming.  Like most RTS games, you'll see an image of the building so you know exactly where you're putting it, and it will be inversed if you can't build it in a certain area.

As for the cursor moving diagonally, I'm not sure. :(

RAWR.
:3

So.
How about that PW that someone PM'ed me on?
It didn't show... Not to mention I couldn't find the build.

:(

EDIT: LOL. Found the build. Now for the password...

EDIT 2: Found. Never mind.

EDIT 3: I find this intriguing. You said this is in BASIC [xLib-enhanced], correct?
Did you use BasicBuilder to compile an APP?

EDIT 4: Never mind; you moved to ASM. Oi.
How am I supposed to help you then...?
I am a TI-BASIC programmer, not ASM.
:(

There's two different versions of S.A.D.  The main one, a real-time version, is in ASM.  There's also a turn-based one, THIS is the one being written in Ti-Basic and Xlib, and THIS is the one I need you volunteered for :)

If you give me some assets, I can fiddle around with them.
I finished my competition (GOT A GOLD MEDAL!) so, I'm free.

Congrats on the competition. Did you actually post about it before? I totally forgot. What was the competition about?

That said, glad to see you back, though ^^

Yes, it was a competition called ACT-SO. It's basically the African-American Science Olympiad.

Now that things are settled in terms of extra routines I need, I'll start posting progress updates of S.A.D. in my signature, as well as letting everyone know what I'm working on next.

The rest of this week is going to be spent preparing for the Ti-Basic turn-based version of S.A.D., since I have a goal to finish it by the end of summer of this year.  Next week I'm going to start working on the cursor aspect of the real-time version of S.A.D. 

From now on, I will sometimes refer to the real-time version of S.A.D. as the "original."
