ultima Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I can't recall where I was reading this but the topic discussed was about writing chunks of data to replace a piece of playfield. The new thing mentioned replacing a routine the loon made for drawing pieces of playfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I think bogax was trying to help me. Either had to do with 4 way scrolling playfields or just simply reading DATA statements and spitting out the playfield from there. Which are you trying to do?

ultima Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Yeah I think it was using DATA ..and it was a fixer for a routine you used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ultima Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 I remember reading this thread but the one I was trying to recall had mentioned theloon's example (or demo) that the player moved around rooms and the playfield had 3 interchangeable pieces top, center, and bottom maybe his WIP Rogue engine I think.
