My playing with MMBasic started for similar reasons, though just at the moment it is beginning to feel more like a mental health problem than a curative . Oh well, only the MMB4L readme to update (I hope) and then time to throw it to the wolves. Happy New Year, Tom We do appreciate the work you put in Tom -    Happy New Year to you too!   Volhout said   Looks great Pete, a soon as I read your explanation of the project I analyzed if this could be ported to PicoMite. Maybe for the 2350 and mode 3 in 640x480. Or (with some redesign) in mode 1. But it would require custom fonts different from yours. I'll keep a good eye on this. You inspired me. Although there is a CMM1 version (MaxiTrek) that I also tried to port (got shelved for now). Volhout Thanks! Because I'm using 10x20 fonts at 800x600, I think it would work well using standard 8x16 fonts in 640x480 (same relative text size). I am double buffering the screen (not sure how much spare graphics memory you have with the 2350), but even if you don't, then that's only for minor animations. 99% of the time, the screen is not being redrawn. I don't think I'm using anything CMM2 specific, so hopefully it should be fairly straightforward (famous last words). Even the processing speed is fairly irrelevant being a turn based game.
