The new options menu with controls documentation is so great to have in the binary exports! :)

There just seems to be a small problem where it says there are "0 joysticks" even though I have one plugged in and it is working fine:

(this is in a exported binary player on Linux)

I made a tiny plugin that lets Tiled load .p8 cartridges, edit the map section, and save them back without breaking the code or other sections. Works great for me, so I hope you may find it interesting!

Available on GitHub: https://github.com/samhocevar/tiled-pico8

Here is what it looks like with a dark theme and the grid color set to white:

Update 2021/02/20: The plugin was ported to JavaScript for compatibility with all OSes. Requires a preview version of Tiled (1.5.0) for now.

Based on MECH.p8 demo.

On Windows, when launching a cart that uses #include, all included files get locked forever and cannot be deleted or modified by an external program unless PICO-8 is stopped. Even if another cart is loaded, the old files are still locked. This makes it really hard to work with source control because no file can be updated or merged while PICO-8 is running.

Edit: here is a screenshot of resmon.exe showing that pico8.exe acquires a new file descriptor on the same file each time I press Ctrl-R:

palt(0b0111111111111111)
print(palt())

This prints "true". Isn't it supposed to print the bitfield?

On the other hand print(0b0111111111111111) prints 32767

Hi,

This is my first sort-of-finished project in pico-8, it's a fractal explorer

This is the submission page for the no sprite sheet challenge.
For details about the challenge and all submissions or if you have a question, go to the No Sprite Sheet Challenge page.
If you have a game you would like to submit, comment the link and name of your game.

Auto reload a cart if external changes are detected so we don't have to keep pressing ctrl + r, this would help for a faster workflow and help with experimentation.

How to reproduce:

• switch to spritesheet
• select pen tool
• draw
• middle-mouse click to pan
• draw does nothing outside the initial zone

How to reproduce:

-- outputs zero
local b=band(nil,4)
-- throws error (arithmetic on field ?)
local b=nil<<4

How to reproduce:

• cart with 3 includes

#include includes/bold.lua
#include includes/bigscore.lua
...
some other code
...
#include includes/tquad.lua

• reports invalid 'printb' not found (included in bold.lua)
• info produces random output:

• ctrl-r clears the error and runs the cart ok

how to reproduce:

for i=1,n do
  i<<5
end

Output:

or

Repro cart:

Onslaught v1.0

Onslaught

You are the pilot of a small grey craft going through space. You are being attacked by a whole host of munitions that are being flung your way, from missile volleys to plasma melters to anti-flagship beams. This wouldn't be much of a problem for such a nimble ship like the one you have, but you are running on emergency fuel that doesn't have nearly the kick of the regular fuel. No help is coming, so you must hold out for as long as possible.

CONTROLS:

Left Arrow: Go left
Right Arrow: Go right
X: Resets the game (Only works after a game over)

Prototype of a chalkboard simulator/math scratchpad. (I might add special characters for that later)

Controls:

• LMB to draw, RMB to erase
• Shift+LMB to draw harder, Shift+RMB to erase more
• Arrows to move cursor
• Tab to move cursor to the mouse position (note: tab is also detected as shift, I don't think there's much I can do about that)
• Keyboard to write
• Enter, Space, Backspace work but slightly unconventionally
• Shift+Up/Down to move cursor half a line up or down - this makes subscripts and superscripts possible
• Mouse wheel to scroll the board (it's infinite downward, but performance is not great yet)

Maybe the BBS code parsing is lagging behind the Pico-8 release?

Downloaded Code shows fine in pico8 app.
