The above is one of the two border programs. I am looking for some people who want to create a border of some sort, that is 3 pixels wide (max). Here is the other bits of important info:
The program requires 4 variables; N O C D
N sets the right side of the border to where it will display on the screen, it can be set to 94 max.
O sets the bottom side of the border to where it will display on the screen, the minimum it can be is 0.
C sets the left side of the menu, minus 3. I know, that sounds odd, but that is what I got it set to. The minimum this can be set to is 3.
D sets the upper portion of the menu, minus 3. Again, this actually sets to just below the upper border, and cannot not go above 59.
Play around with the program, and change variable values, and you will see what it is I was doing. :)
If there are any other questions, after looking through the program, then let me know, will be more than glad to answer.
Looking forward to your responses!  |

If you shift the limits/inputs for N and C down one and O and D up one, you can save I think 16 bytes. With each variable you lose two bytes in two spaces but gain two in four spaces.
Old:
Code:
1->N
Line(0,N-1,1,N-1
New:
Code:
0->N
Line(0,N,1,N
I hope you can understand what I mean. |

Yeah, I understand, though I really don't feel like going through and fixing all the problems this will in the end cause... x.x
On the plus side, moving pokemon within the party menu works |

OK, for 100% error-free switchover. (TM?)
Copy the subroutine to another program and modify it. Any time you find a place to change it, do it and call the new subroutine. Modify the old one to change the values by one, Pause, and then call the new subroutine. The Pause will alert you to any changes you've missed.
(I know, it's sounds like more trouble than it's worth but I liked the idea.)
As for the moving system:
At first glance the looping screenshot makes it look like changing was instantaneous. I was taken aback. Then I realized it wasn't really like that.  Still pretty cool, but is it necessary to redraw the whole screen? |

I *could* set up a temp picvar, might make it a bit faster, but when it has to replace the text, I am not gonna try to bloat the code with pinpointing and clearing certain areas.
Also, removing the ! speeds things up considerably. |

| Well, it's only there to indicate unfriendly conditions, I assume . |

| yeah pretty much, and getting rid of it will get rid of one less thing it will have to calculate, and decide if it should display the !. |

| It would probably make it even slower, because all the status conditions are probably 1 var, so having to check if it's 1 value would slow it down |

Holy necropost Batman!
There's a newer thread about the same game; I'll edit this post when I find it. |

| I think that the screenies look very good for a basic program, very fast for BASIC too. |
