Iterates L-systems. There's no text wrap, so strings extend offscreen.
I'm going to try adding a turtle graphics function that appears over the top of the text that you can press z to toggle on/off.
Simulates algae by default, but you can easily change the system by editing the variable and varprod tables.
If you want to add a constant, just make the corresponding varprod the same character as the variable.
EDIT:
Don't press x to iterate, press z. i made a typo.

Made for the 1-Room RPG Jam on itch.io
A small RPG where you have to unfold the story, or stories, by interacting with objects and furniture.
All necessary instructions are given in the game.
The gameplay is in place but the story is still very limited. I plan to enrich it and may be add some cutscenes ?

Does anybody have some methods for creating a boomerang action effect?
You know...player throws a boomerang and it eases out to X distance, hangs there a sec, then comes back to the player regardless where they are. Zelda-style.
I imagine it's a lot of atan2() math and something like that...but wondering if anyone has something they've already made and are willing to share before I spend weeks trying to figure it out. Thanks!

Hi,
I get an out of memory when calling this function (recursive)
when i click a button, i will call select_ball(4,4,3) -> now all objects with the same index (neighbours) wil get index 7
This works perfectly fine, but no matter how many objects will be selected, in the end there is an out of memory exception
balls is a 16x10 multidimensional array.
arrow keys to move the cursor and 'z' to click on a ball
function select_ball(x,y,index)
if balls[x][y].index==index then
balls[x][y]={index=7}
if x>1 and balls[x-1][y].index==index then
select_ball(x-1,y,index)
end
if x<width and balls[x+1][y].index==index then
select_ball(x+1,y,index)
end
if y>1 and balls[x][y-1].index==index then
select_ball(x,y-1,index)
end
if y<height and balls[x][y+1].index==index then
select_ball(x,y+1,index)
end
end
end

HI there, I recently bought Pico and Voxatron, and I really like both of them. Pico has a lot fo support, and has a ton of guides for the beginner. However, Voxatron doesn't use lua scripts- it has its own thing. I'm asking for someone to make a comprehensive guidebook(like pico fanzine) for anyone to use. Thank you in advance for making it.
Also, can someone please tell me how to make a hud in Voxatron? I need it urgently for a project at school, and i need a point system in it. The premise is that a man has to collect rabbits, and the rabbits give 1 point each.

Melon Bear is a neurotic bear, possessed by an all-consuming desire to devour sentient melons. Eat as many melons as you can while managing your Rage Meter to control your speed, but don't forget to avoid enemy bears and the extra-dangerous Melon Wyrm! Can you survive long enough to capture the legendary Golden Melon?

This cartridge doesn't have a very impressive test, but the code might be useful to some of you.
This is an implementation of the LZW compression and decompression routines with variable-width coding, commonly used in a few image formats. I've nibble-aligned the codec, and I provide an interface where you can give addresses for compression/decompression.
The way I envision using this is: construct rooms in map #1, then when you're finished, compress them to map #2 or elsewhere in map #1, then store them to the cartridge. When you're finished building rooms, you only need to include the emit/read symbol functions and decomp, which total to about 340 tokens. You can make a table of addresses for loading these rooms during runtime, and it's pretty fast, all things considered.
As for compression ratio, this demo shows a case where it's pretty bad - you could conceivably end up with bigger data than you started with if your data was sufficiently random, but for maps this is often not the case. If you build a table (as described above), you could mix entries for compressed data and entries for "literal" data to only compress when it helps.
In the future, I might provide an interface for compressing sub-rectangles of the map to avoid having to compress empty space (even though, in theory, this will be highly compressible).
Hope you find it useful!

Was running through some theoretical stuff in my "idearrhea" at work the other day - it does seem like the idea behind P8 structure is creative recursion. So, while a few things I've worked on have been tiled up as you'd expect in the map editor... I got to thinking about a thing and how it could be implemented.
The thing I think I want to pull off is to commit the second two pages of sprite data to pixel-point maps of tiles, and then to put THOSE in the map editor. So, instead of rendering realtime maps, it could read each pixel of the map data, and then generate a tile based on the color of said pixel... in order to make a map that's 32x the size of the map data!! Bonus: then the "pause" button can be used to simply display the pixelled data, and you get an instant minimap!
Sure, you'd have to get a bit creative in how the data itself is interpreted - maybe a chunking out squares of biomes where the same tile data is interpreted differently (or upon game start, probabilistically), as well as manually adding some objects after that on a per-scene/screen basis... but it's more to the effect of creating bigger gameworlds.
I guess eventually I'd like to pan this idea out into something Terraria-like? But way more simplified. I'm really just making this post to put the idea out there, though... because I think this is ALREADY how the map data in the cart works to begin with... so then decoding map tiles into sprites, and THOSE sprites into additional grids of sprites...

Is there a logarithm function? I seem to try all the obvious things like log, log10, ln, also finding nothing in the manual or forum.
I can think of workarounds storing an old fashioned logarithm table in my program and looking up in it.. or port some other implementation.. I just imagine there is a log function exposed? Am I missing an easy way to calculate them with other functions? It's the inverse of an exponent maybe I can rearrange my problems somehow to use exponent. HMM well figure someone knows off hand thanks
