I have surfed in several sites and one question has founded allmost everywhere.
"I wana make text-based game. How i can know can my player move to x,y position or is there some wall etc...?"
Also my self have been some problems with "simple" things. Loading and saving on file was a major problem at first. It took like a 2 hours before i remembered it
So is there allready some simple moving tutorial allready?

when you say text, do you mean ASCII (if so, join pure text), or do you mean a classic text adventure. If you do mean text adventure, there is a tutor on this site. Otherwise, read DarkDread's tutorials. He gives a quike, easy and fast method of doing collision.

In my country we usually talk about text-based.
What?s Pure-text?

Hello. I have used text a great deal and know many things about using. I'll give you some code, Its just like using graphical maps
Code: Select all
DIM map(100, 100)
FOR y = 1 TO 5
FOR x = 1 TO 5
READ map(x, y)
LOCATE y, x
IF map(x, y) = 1 THEN PRINT CHR$(219)
NEXT: NEXT
px = 2
py = 2
top:
LOCATE py, px: PRINT CHR$(2)
DO: P$ = INKEY$: LOOP UNTIL P$ <> ""
LOCATE py, px: PRINT " "
IF P$ = "8" AND map(px, py - 1) = 0 THEN py = py - 1
IF P$ = "5" AND map(px, py + 1) = 0 THEN py = py + 1
IF P$ = "4" AND map(px - 1, py) = 0 THEN px = px - 1
IF P$ = "6" AND map(px + 1, py) = 0 THEN px = px + 1
GOTO top
DATA 1,1,1,1,1
DATA 1,0,0,0,1
DATA 1,0,1,0,1
DATA 1,0,0,0,1
DATA 1,1,1,1,1
You can join Pure text if ya want.
Hope this helps anyway
