Re: macOS version of ZX81 iOS/iPadOS app

Nice work.

One thing that'd be nice to be able to do would be to load a .p program, without the system being reset; for example I'd load something that would transfer code to address 8192, then load something else and I'd still have the code at 8192 be resident.

Re: 7Eh near end of REM

As you noted I observed this in that post you referenced.

Probably the best way to avoid this is to have a double 76h at the start of that 0 REM line, making the system omit displaying all the contents. You would still be able to list subsequent lines, with:

Code: Select all

LIST 5
in this case.

Re: New ZX81 Games

Looks fun... and addicting! I would suggest another dimension to the game: The "civilians", seeing you're a bombsquad member, are panicked at your sight, and figure there must be a bomb around you, and as such 'run away' from you as you go about searching for the bomb; this presents an extra risk - ...

Re: Fast Times At Clairmont High

Thanks for this - I remember typing all those hex codes by hand from the magazine, oh so long ago.

I was actually thinking about this game recently, and was looking for it.

Re: REM Line length

I remember in one of the Sinclair magazines the listing for a game all done in MC - the article had the user create a single large REM statement by hand, then duplicate it several times (edit, change line number, hit ENTER); afterwards, it had the user issue a CLS, then a few POKEs that would end up...
