maybe because you are hyping yourself as the next big thing with ground-breaking (or "ground-trembling") new games, yet have no clue how to do even simple TI-BASIC good programming practices is the cause of the hostility? maybe you need to re-evalutate your approach, then you will get a good response. You should have announced yourself as a new programming group that wants to learn how to become better, and maybe help the community once you've gotten good at programming. Instead, you make it sound like you are already the sh*t, yet you ask a total n00b question

it really doesn't take much effort to hold comments like that in. jpez, chill.

if you want to see real proof that I was just as n00by as them once read this:http://www.unitedti.org/index.php?showtopic=2967&hl=

you didn't proclaim yourself as god's gift to calculators tho either

I'd like to know why all the n00bs always refer to themselves as programming groups from the start. They always refer to themselves as "we" when we all know that they are a single programmer. I find it quite comical, but after a while it can get irritating. ElfPrince, I love this line:

Amen, brotha.

BPC doesnt seem to be a single programmer. Im pretty much the only programmer at SFGP, but Ive had other staff pretty much from the start.

Umm....

and 2 weeks later I got bledoux and jakeman550

For your information:

I have asked this question before on the TICALCS2 forum. I'll get a link if you want it.

I have looked at it in several tutorials, including your very own L33T guide. It doesn't tell me really the proper way to do it. I think it has good intentions but it doesn't show examples.

I'm not going to say any more here because some of you are pissing me off and I don't want to lose my temper.

What's the best way to learn? The best way to learn is by putting your knowledge to use. If you've read so many tutorials then you should be very familiar with how loops are supposed to work. All it takes is creative problem solving to find a way to relieve your dependence on labels.

true, when I did Ultimate Pond not too long ago, I used a few labels. I recently went back through the code and eliminated everyone of them. Also, with my RPG, there has yet to be a label to date.

When thinking on your labels think, what does it take to get it to go back. If you want it to go ack to start of loop whtn x<5, and your code looked like

Code:

That can be changed with

Code:

If it is in the middle of the program, you will find the speed will pick up. If you want, I can supply you my code for Ultimate Pong 2.0 (labels) and 2.1 (no lavels and unreleased) and you can look at the diffrences and study them. Just PM me if you want them.

I would suggest looking at the Pokemon source code, but it is extremely complex to those that aren't overly advanced with BASIC...
