Hi all,
just begin to use picotron and it's really great.
I'm trying some picotron features (fortunately it is very similar to pico 8 so it is easy to use the basic commands) but I don't know how to use graphics that are not in the 0.gfx file (I have tried fetch("gfx/1.gfx")) but it doesn't seem to work). Does anyone know how to do it?
Thank you very much in advance

Hi! I'm thinking install Linux in an old HP Mini 210 32bits netbook but not sure wich Linux distro install on it in order to use Pico-8. I've searching in the Pico-8 docs but I don't find nothing clear and I'm very newbie in Linux.
Anybody knows what is the "minimal" Linux version/distribution that allows me using Pico-8?
Thanks in advance!
Regards.

Hi all!
Here is my new PICO-8 program, it's a little game based on ZX Spectrum's Jumping Jack mechanics.
Hope you like it.
Best regards.

Hi all,
I'm using, from a LUA script, to draw the current room the method:

old_draw = _draw
function _draw()
    old_draw() -- draw the room and objects
    ...
end

It's great to draw the current room with just a function call.
But can I change the current room from LUA script code to draw the another room calling old_draw() function?
If not, can I draw directly another room without change to it?

Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Hi there,
I'm using voxatron from a few weeks, as Pico-8 it's really fun. I'm using directly LUA instead the editor itself.
I've read the lua_api and Voxatron Designer User Manual documents but I've some questions.

1. Is there any way to export to linux/mac/win/html?
2. Could be possible to export to raspberry pi?
3. Can I deactivate the default sound of cursor/z/x keys?
4. How can I use draw_voxmap using an angle but without alter the original color of the vox? For instance, if I have a multicolor voxel and I want to apply 0.5 angle I must use:
   draw_voxmap("mivox",32,32,32,color,0.5)
   But if I use a color number, the voxel uses a flat color instead it's original colors. Is there a way to use the original colors of the vox?

Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Hi all!
Is there any roadmap for PICO-8 until the 1.0 version?
Just to know what awaits us in future releases.
Thanks in advance.
