Passages work! And as for the tile bug, It's buggy. xD I'll make it work like ZZT if it becomes a nuisance. For now, I'm ready to get Pushers (sliders and boulders, too) to work as expected, and then I may release an alpha. =D I'll release source and "compiled" C code. Euphoria is an inter...

True. And that's what my original implementation did because I checked it just every so often. So the buffer filled up, and you'd keep going until it was empty. Now, mine checks constantly, ignores duplicates, and processes every NEW command sequentially per cycle. What I mean is... If the user held...

Ok, messages fixed =D This means my "framework" works. Now I just have to code everything in. First, I may as well do passages, so it's possible to get to every board. Shouldn't be that hard. =) Also, although it doesn't move EXACTLY like ZZT (I believe ZZT uses my method with a two keystr...

Thankoo! And as it turns out, before creatures, I need to fix messages. Once I get those fixed, I'll see what other fixes need to be made. I might just release a beta with everything I had working before getting it all lost, once I get to that point. Messages are almost fixed at this point. Funny th...

Thank you for those links, and I'll certainly keep your thoughts in mind. I finally, FINALLY fixed the one super-annoying movement glitch, where if you held down a key for too long, then after you released it, and pressed another direction, it would go one space further, before going in the new dire...

Oh man, I SO got that wrong in my head. And the funny thing is, the same thing as that holds for my last name. The "j" sounds like a "y". Oh well. back on topic now, I s'pose.

Short post this time. But... I had almost completely forgotten that I originally started by porting WeP's source of ZZT++ to Euphoria. Right now, everything is being done on my own, using the real ZZT as a guide. (Except the working parsers, which is mainly what the latest version I had saved, way b...

Saxxon, I'm very interested. I looked at the thread for your "clone", and found it most interesting. Took a few notes that would be important, too. =) Cycles work that way? Rather than running when (game_cycles % element_cycles) == 0? I think that would be easier, after all. It just goes d...

xD So true. Collaboration would be key. I've been using the file formats given by Mystical Worlds and Kevin Vance himself. The programming of ZZT itself has been all me so far, though. =P It's actually a pretty simple program. Just a lot going on at once. I finally figured out how to make everything...

Oooo. I could do that. I registered as a user and everything. I'll see what I can do, after tutoring someone on how to program. =P I'll think of something.

[This is long. For a tl;dr version, scroll to the bottom.] Wow. After a few years, I come back to z2, find my old stuff, and everything. Funny enough, the whole reason I ever came to this site in the first place was to play the worlds people had created. Now, the only reason I came back was because ...

End of discussion.

I concur.

Sorry about the double post, but I wanted everyone to see this. Hey everyone. Progress is slow, but I'm still gonna try to complete it. Not until I learn a LOT about C code though. I will eventually complete it, and send it in, but I'm busy with another project now. I'm working with Chronos to filna...

Wep: Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. Since a lot of the coding is based on your code, I will be sure to credit you in the code before I submit it. Thanks again. Everyone: I just wanted to let you all know that I am still working on the program. So far, pushers can push everyting they are supposed to...

Please, please please tell me that you're not actually using BIOS functions and all that crap, and please tell me that you're not using DOS/Windows DOS emulation for this. That would be the best way to ruin it from the beginning. Geeze, almost nothing these days should have to even worry about tech...
