Work In Progress:
A tool I made to help learn how fillp() code works as well as the 256 colour combinations.
In future I plan to add a hexadecimal readout as well as a means of changing the colour other than rewriting the colour table in _init(). Comments and better organisation of code is also on the to do list.

Hi @Jenques.

You are in good company.

There were some other coders who did this too - or I may be mistaken and it was P8SCII ?

Hey @dw817 !
I did use your cart for reference 😬😂 well done though yours is much less sketchy than mine and I like the animation feature you had but I wished there was more functionality like a loop feature or something.
I also saw some other experimentation with fillp() but no one else was really making a tool to explain it.
Thank you for your interest!

Hi @Jenques. Could you please explain loop feature ? I will be more than happy to add it if I can understand it.

@dw817 I was thinking something like a button that will play and loop through the frames to make it into an animation.
Or similar functionality to the music tab in the pico 8 editor where you can place markers to define loops.
One problem I foresee is your cart starts with 256 empty frames so you'd maybe need to check which frames the user wants to see included or just which frames had been edited.

Let me think for a second, @Jenques ... I could set it so it determines which frames have been edited and animate those in a cycle. Let me look at my code and see what is possible.
