Basic Sprites

Hello all,


I have not put any extensive research into this question but I was wondering if anyone who has successfully made or used sprites in basic could tell me how they did it / what or what not to do so I can save some time (emotional energy)? (That’s what forums are for, right?)

TIfanx1999:
There are a number of ways to do this, and it also depends on which platform you are programming for. Keep in mind Sprites in pure BASIC are generally going to be slow. Again this depends on the method and platform.

johnbchron:
Oh yeah. Forgot to mention this is for the CE.

Runer112:
In that case, there's really no good option other than to ditch BASIC. It sounds like you might want to try ICE instead of BASIC.

johnbchron:
I have worked in ice before and I was curious about basic because I thought that sprites might work differently. Does anyone know of any good on-calc sprite editors? I at one point was making one myself but a ram clear meant that I would have to start from scratch again so I gave it up.
