Can't you use matrix with the width is stocked in two expression?

Using matrices would cause the memory cost for the map data to skyrocket. :/ It would also slow down hit detection, and make the map loading very slow. Strings are the only way I can go to make this work. I just hope I am successful.

If you want the loading be fast, you can use lists, and if you want a ground with a width custumised by the user, you can use for loop and indirections (# on 68k)...

ben en tout cas, ca promet !!

Well done and good luck for your work !

Lists will still require a translator of sorts, since I dont want the game to be just numbers.

Strings are the fastest, since they immediately display using an output.

Right now, hit detection is implemented, jumping ledges (going down) works, and I am currently working on the map to map linker. I hope to get the kinks worked out of it tonight, so I can continue on with progress.

Edit:

How does that work for ya?

well done!
But I can't imagine HOW you detect collisions when the map is a string....

If not(InString(Str#,T,1)=" " basically

and then the Str itself contains the characters that you cannot walk over

Good idea!
I didn't thought about it ^^

Take a look at the developers guide there. And I was slightly off on the hit detection, it is more like this:

If not(inString(Str2,sub(Str1,T-1,1):Then

I guess I should make sure I have enough sleep before trying to be awake to makes posts.
