Hi guys
So I finally received my M4 and after putting all those software on it and getting my old disks usable again without worrying about using them, I thought I take some of my old unfinished Basic Projects and .... well .... finish them
So on an old disk I found a kind of strategy game I began to write back in the 80s.
I do now nearly nothing about asm and so I code in basic.
Main screen is some kind of stellar map with some planets and stars and a spaceship. There you have to explore Planets, destroy pirate ships and so on ...
Problem is : I wrote the game back then in mode 1 with text as objects like "X" for a spaceship and "O" for a planet and so on
So I took the source and converted all to mode 0 to use some nice (well, kinda nice for my purpose) graphics but I have problem now. Some things that happen has to be displayed using text messages, but well as you now, mode 0 is kinda useless here (writing one sentence and the screen is filled)
Does anyone has a clever idea to deal with this, maybe a clever routine for displaying some amount of text in "readable" format on a mode 0 screen ?
